Drawing a blank, being a Monday game do they announce the extended squads tonight or tomorrow?

They'll name extended squards tonight with full team to be announced Saturday afternoon

    Thinking Turner will be named on the extended bench.

    Any chance we can do a Geelong this week and beat a mid range team with multiple best 22 players out in addition to losing a gun defender mid game, without its defensive structure falling to pieces, and produce a character building win?

    Yes they'll want to give Petty maximum time to recover

    Bloody oath. 

    We should be winning this game based on desire, talent, system and purely that we are further advanced than them

    Great sides who have won premierships over the years have always been able to win games with key players out. The last two weeks have been understandable because of who we've played. 

    But seriously, if we don't win on Monday I will be genuinely disappointed and slightly concerned about our second half to the year. 

    We also owe these flogs who caused a huge upset against us last year. And they were missing a handful of their top 10 players and still beat us. 

    It sometimes comes down to big club vs small club mentality. 

    We better respond. Especially after the week in the media we've had. I expect a galvanised group who are committed to the cause for four quarters. And I expect to win.

    I think he has a future but no way he is ready for QB 

    From my observation he has been useful in 3-4 games and good in one but that was North who are very poor. I seriously doubt he will be promoted any time soon.

    Its mind games. he will play. 

    Not really any point, they will name him anyway and if he plays we'll have prepared for him.

    I'm picturing Viney sitting in a cage, gnawing his teeth right now

    I pity the Collingwood players that come anywhere near him on QB

    UNLEASH JACK!

    Jack's impact has improved, too. If ever there was a Demon capable and willing to create havoc with the Filth, it would be Jack. I wonder who his key targets will be?

    with a 8 day break I think Petty will play but definately need Hibberd as Petty is liable to go off for long periods.  That's what happened in the 2nd quarter when we were a tall/bulky player short.

    now that it looks like Miocheck is out and Elliott is in.  Hibbo is a must.

    Elliot is too strong and too good one on one for hunt i reckon.

    Hibbo would be the match up for Elliot - can match him for strength and is excellent one on one.

    I'd go Hiiberd in, and plays on Elliot. And Hunt goes to Ginnivan.

    Mihocek is a very good player and underestimated by many.  He's no Kingsley.

    Mihocek = McDonald 

    Vastly underrated player

    Those who rate Mihocek and those who don't can all agree with this comparison. Those who rate him can assume he's like Tom and those that don't can think he's like Oscar.

    Personally, I think he's a very good player and would be even better if he had some good tall forwards around him.

    Hunt shouldn't play give the job to Rivers or Salem.

    • 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?
