Bloody terrible umpiring is costing us this game.

 
 

What’s going on with Viney’s disposal, he has missed 3 easy targets.

Definitely one who only plays well when the rest of the team does. Cannot rely on him to turn the tide

Only a handful in the team could turn the tide. Useless comment.

Dixon smoked Gawn there. Read it well.

Can we please sub Tom Sparrow out for Dunstan.

Absolutely killing out forward thrusts and disposal 

Not sure that'd be much of an improvement re disposals

Umpire sucked in there, Max doesn't get the ball back to him it's fine but Dixon basically drops the ball and gets a 50.

Nah, 4 years ago he gobbles that up. 

Yeah but right now they kick it better, he marks it. He played for a different team 4 years ago so don’t really care what he could do then. 

We work so hard for our goals this quarter but yet we continue to cough it up so easy to Port Adelaide scoring the other way.

50 was there. If you impact player's ability to play off mark then you infringed. Harsh but there.

Zero desperation

    Good acting Charlie

    True but wouldn’t have happened if Trac hadn’t shanked his kick. Too many errors.

    Dixon has always got a good run from the umps

    Hibberd has been good since he returned.

    This ground is not suitable for AFL footy.

    • 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.

      Captain Max Gawn still has a massive lead in the Demonland Player of the Year Award from Christian Petracca, Kozzy Pickett, Jake Bowey & Clayton Oliver. Your votes please; 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

      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?
