GREAT START!

We were missing 4 of our top 10 but the rest of the boys stood up. Kozzie, Lever, Trac awesome. Judd awesome start. Great to see BBB get 4. Grundy worked a treat first up. 

BUT, what I loved was how we were still running and hungry at the end. We could easily have rested in the last 5-10 minutes. We did that a lot last year. Not tonight. We put ‘em away. 

Once the machine is firing. We get a few back, Grundy is full power, we are gonna be scary. 

Great job, boys!

    Trac changed the game in the second quarter I thought.
    My favourite play was in the second when Grundy roved off the pack, did an underground handball to Langdon and Lingers centred it to Spargo. 

    Spargs and Kozzie electric.

    Great performance. Grundy will get better with more games as he learns the tap locations. 

    Just sour to lose Kozzy for a couple of weeks.

    As I said in the game day.

    We own a good amount of land in the doggies head!

    McVee is good, very good. I feel more comfortable with the ball in his hands than hard the side.

    Some great signs. 
     

    Defence was rock-solid. Tomlinson was fantastic. Had my worries about May being out but that proved to be unfounded. Tommo deserves high praise. 
     

    Maxy, best ruckman of my lifetime hands down. I’ve never seen another ruckman cause as much damage, as consistently, as he does. So adding Grundy on top of that is absurd. 
     

    Couldn’t ask anymore than a 50 point win!!!

    McVee looks a beauty. Moves like Ricky Petterd but looks a great kick!

    I thought I was the only one who thinks he's the 2nd coming of the Pet.

    Luke Jackson was great in support of Gawn again but I don’t like his new look with the man bun.

    I wont underestimate the Dees again this season. If you can win with four guns out against supposedly good opposition then you have significant depth. 

    Great to hear Tomlinson played well.

    Probably will play next Friday.May can rest up. Well done McVee. Anything about Laurie?

    Kozzy is a genuine superstar now. Please offer whatever he wants Tim Lamb.

    Trac, Oliver and Gawn just changed the game when they decided to put their foot down.

    McVee is genuinely cool and calm under the heat. With more experiences and game he'll get better and apply himself with much more confidence. Jason Taylor has unpacked another gem.

    Good to see Benny Brown up and about. 4 snags is a good start

    Lever was BOG down back alongside Tomlinson and Bowey.

    Just an overall great team performance. 

    Unfortunately Oskar Baker and Mitch Hannan are VFL standard footballers. Still amazed Baker got given another chance at AFL level.

      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?
