Concerning that many people think this 'very clearly' crossed the line.  The line is also the back of the post.

You all need glasses  😂

I'm more concerned that the score review panel thought it very clearly didn't. Quickly as well

    So proud of my peeps. They looked great considering more than half of us weren’t there. If you look at the fence in front of Ricky Lever you can see the GO JUDD sign that was given to the DA by Judd’s  family. ❤️💙

    Noticed that sign very early on, great stuff!

    You’re right, he was good, but a couple of times he had the opportunity to hurt us today and his foot skills let him down.  He did this too often with us. I wish him well, but not too sad he’s gone. McVee a much better option moving forward. 

    Was telling though that he bustled past Hunter to make that chest mark and goal. Was making a point I guess. Good luck to him.

    What they’re saying at Windy Hill/Bomberblitz should be a good read this week.

    Tmac's game was superb, crashing the contest and ripping down some contested marks with 4 to go along with it. 

    Thats the tmac we all know and love.

    I might be wrong, but I don’t think JVR has missed a shot on goal yet. Loving his assured kicking for goal.

    We have LOTS of in form players, multiple 'utility' players, a very strong list, and many things going well. It is astonishing to think er can play this well with Gawn, Salem and BBB out. For pure strength and talent, we are as good as we have ever been.

    Our fumbling is becoming a concern and will hurt us against the better sides, especially when it is Petracca, Viney, Oliver, ANB, Spargo etc... who are usually so clean. We have to tidy this up. 

    Great to see many of our players improving et shot goal kicking.

    We now have a scary forward mix. Maybe even better than 1994 and that is saying a lot.

    My man Brayshaw is possibly our sloppiest current player. Some of his un-pressured stuff ups today (and over the last 2 weeks as well) were mind boggling. It is only his 2-way running and defensive efforts keeping him in the 22. He is a gun, but clean hands and feet required.

    Finally got to watch the highlights off the AFL website. Can I just say so far Kyle Chandler has to be the most improved player. His ball use, kicking passing and running has been great and now he has added kicking goals to his game. Credit to him.

    No. Subbed out in the last for JJ. Not injured. Just managed. 

    @Jaded No Moreand @BritishDemonFan in his presser Goodwin described Hibberd as our only injury concern and said he got subbed out because of soreness in the achillies again. He noted we had a short week to next Saturdays game so would need to be assessed.

    Was at the game. Hunter is really starting to find his groove in our team. He is a gun and will be huge for us.

    So impressed by some of our youngsters -

    Rivers, McVee, Bowey, Chandler - take bow!

    When it becomes crunch time with selections he should get games ahead of Spargs if he maintains current form

    Had a good day today at the game watching the boys have a win. Pretty scrappy early on wasn’t much to watch as I’m sure it wasn’t on the TV.
    The umpiring was probably the worst I’ve seen for a long time - just absolute [censored] on all levels.

    Really happy to see Viney back amongst it - just relentless. Grundy is a godsend.

    Eagles supporters have no idea but probably made better calls today than the umpires at times.

    Yeah that’s a bit much even when it’s a 3 word analysis.

    Very happy to walk away from that with a 10 goal win and form into players like TMac. 

    That’s two road trips out of the way in the first month of the season, and a 3-1 scoreline from the Dogs, Brisbane, Sydney and West Coast is IMO a good result.

    He had one shot from about 45 for a behind.

    Bring on 3rd v 4th next week. 
    Nibbler did plenty of tough work, 11 tackles is a fair effort.

    Thought he was very good today.  Alot of stuff inside and out that probably went unrewarded on the sheets & unoticed.

    • 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?
