Switched on late. Looked like Casey had the breeze that qtr. Rosman playing in the backline, and reached the centre with a kick out from a point. Chandler also had a shot that went 60m for a point. Howes kicked a nice goal, and later kicked a point running along the boundary, which he should have centred. Mitch Brown got cleaned up behind play, but got up ok. Haven't sighted JVR.

    Bedford goal. Apparently no wind at the ground but trees seem to be almost blowing on a 45deg angle.

    I know it’s hard to see the players at the ground but the commentary is quite interesting 🤔 

    Are these the usual commentators?  Usually they are relatively good but not great today.

    From the BT school of commentating. Trying to bring excitement into the call rather getting the teams and players names correct.

    Half Time Casey Demons 7.9.51 to Essendon 5.6.36

    Goals Chandler 2 Bedford M Brown Howes Steele White

    A blow to lose Mitch Brown after the withdrawal of other key forwards Weideman and Van Rooyen early in the game.

    Munro copped a punch to the head. Didn't see any report. They called that one.

    With Brown out, that is our 3 key forwards out since selection.

    I thought he was going to have an aneurysm when that Essendon player's boot came flying off.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
