Wouldn't say sombre, more 'distracted' if that makes sense at all?

You're reading too much into it 'Nev'

    No, it makes no sense.

    It'll be something like, Zorko said "your sister wears army boots", not knowing that during the week, Petty's sister was indeed found to be wearing army boots.

    For "army boots", substitute something far more intensely personal.

    Zorko probably didn't know that he'd touched a raw nerve, but when you're playing Mr Tough Guy, things can backfire on you.

    Could be distracted by the Petty issue or could be focused on finals because that is all that counts.

    If anything I just thought they were all trying to avoid Roaming [censored].

    Alan Richardson commented on it post game, Goody spoke about it in the presser, May talked about it post-match, so have most players. Clearly it's on their minds.

    They're trying to stay professional. They will let the relevant parties sort it out.

    Not that 'Nev' your talk about the players reaction in the rooms after the game is what I'm talking about and you know it.

    What are you on tonight???

    The Petty/Zorko thing is big, we all know that.

    They were all asked about it, they didn’t bring it up themselves… it’s funny how you tend to think about something when asked about it. Why the need to dramatise everything?

    Goodwin punting to the AFL means he is pretty filthy about it - didn’t diffuse it, just played a straight bat.

    The Lions head of footy didn’t contest what was said - only that Zorko apologised and so did the Lions.

    The best thing that could happen for the Lions heading into a game with the Tigers is for Zorko to be suspended.

    Give them a chance to win…

    Zorko is shizen under the finger nails. You can call somebody a [censored] on the field but if you call out some ones family member a [censored] you have crossed a bridge too far.

    Right, so it's a big thing, they're all commenting on it, but it's totally not effecting them... ok.

    Richardson literally sough out an interview after the game.

    Embarrassing how much you follow me around. Stick to the 'make off it what you will' routine.

    I've always felt like Dayne Zorko is a [censored]. I suppose this confirms it.

    They're copping heat already online for "faux toughness", which is very accurate. Zorko, Mathieson, Robinson, all pretty rubbish fellows.

    Zorko got caught stone cold holding the ball by Langdon in the first quarter and reacted by grabbing Langdon's hair and putting him in a headlock. [censored].

    I might be unique in this opinion but I’ve got respect for mitch robinson. Has always played hard, lived on the edge and got the best out of himself. Called is bruise free when we were.

    Zorko has always been a crap bloke. Look at his run ins with Touk Miller. He is the worst captain in the AFL by a mile. They will never win a premiership with him as captain

    • 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?
