You gotta love these boys. When they are up for the fight the fight is ferocious.

I know a lot won’t agree but I thought we were really good for 85% of the game the week before. We are building nicely.

    Would love to hear from people at the game. How were we behind the ball? Looked like the set up was unreal. Did our forwards press up, or have they started to hang some one loose?

    Great Team win.

    Viney is a much better when he looks where he is hand-balling but had a great game.   

    Some concerns for me:

    Weid he just can’t find form in the seniors. I think he had 1k 1m and 1g. it’s a real worry tbh. 

    Jackson looks to be out of form big time. Could be playing with an injury but could also be his contract speculation playing on his mind. Didn’t see him in the team song either. 

    I would consider resting Jacko and bringing in Tomlinson as a forward and put Weid in the ruck with Maxy. It could help him find form.

    I knew we had that in us and at our best with that mongrel intensity no one can beat us.

    You watch us go from now on.

    Get around Port, GWS, Adelaide and Richmond (to beat Collingwood, Sydney, Carlton and Brisbane respectively).

    Let's see how many of last week's results we can reverse this week.

    6-0 interstate in the one season.

    Anyone else ever done that before?

    Certainly not Collingwood - they never travel 6 times.

    Jack Viney is our barometer, those stats are astronomical. 
     

    That should be the standard of pressure and contest for the whole team for the rest of the season, great win!!

    Jake Melksham continuing his surprise resurgence. Chased hard and provided a solid target on the lead. Probably should've finished with 2-3 goals 

    Liking his game at the moment. Adds a different element to our forward line.

    Pretty poor coverage with replays often taking precedence over live action, overlaid by commentary box prattle.

    Jackson rucked well and jumped over his opponent consistently - hope he sees that the Dees are the team to stick with Dockers are real pretenders

    • 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?
