Caris is stepping away from football after 6 games with the Dees to focus on netball.

"Caris was signed on as a training partner with the Melbourne Vixens last year, while she was also selected in the 21 and Under Australian squad."

I was certain she'd go to another club in need of a ruck, didn't realise netball was in the mix. Best of luck to her.

    Ooo can it be that demon horns one?  Love that picture so much 😁

    That would be awesome! I’ll put it to Il Capitano. No matter which pic it is though, I like the idea of having it floating majestically above our heads for all the Collingwood fans to see at our QB game. In particular, their feral cheer squad at the opposite end of the ground. 😝

    Can't remember if I said this in the men's gameday thread, but was pleasantly surprised to see Goldrick still in town. Must be having an extended celebratory holiday? Assuming she didn't fly back from Ireland for the lap of honour 😆

    I saw that as well. My theory was that she is here for the VFLW season which kicks off very soon.

    She told me after the grand final she was going to be hanging around in the new year.  I didn't think it would be for this long, however she seems to really love life in Melbourne.  I'm not sure what the situation is with her Gaelic commitments, though

    It actually is on us, Kat. Ryan (our illustrious leader) decides which players are giant head-worthy, that is, players who’ve been with us for a while, since they’re very expensive to produce. Of course, as with everything we do, it has to be approved by the Club.

    We do have a giant Paxy head, it just wasn’t brought to the ground on Saturday night. Nothing personal it’s just that not every giant head can be there at once since they’re hard to transport. Unless of course someone is crazy enough to carry one on two trains and a packed replacement bus. But who’d be that stoopid, right. 🙃

    My understanding is the mens ones were produced by us, the women's ones were done last year by the club.  That's what others have told me.

    We order both men’s and women’s and they’re beautifully printed by (shameless plug comin’ atch y’all ) MAD Printing, a company run by our own Mario, a diehard Dees-man and stalwart of the DA, and all-round top bloke. End of advertisement

    So, by the nature of Maggie C's departure (best wishes, Maggie) the premiers remain entirely 'unpoached'? Extraordinary. Pride-inducing, too.

    Yep.  Apart from Daisy retiring, all of the remaining 22 from the premiership team is still at the club.  Maggie didn't play in the grand final.

    • 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?
