Opposition hyperbole;

Perennial favourite Jack Darling as the Eagles most experienced tall didn’t deliver. Kept himself goalless, shaded almost effortlessly by Oscar Allen. 

Jayden Hunt on the other hand was amongst the Eagles best players. Performed like he had a point of prove. The way out west is paved with prolific possessions.

From the director’s chair;

Harry Petty’s move up forward may still be a work in progress, but he is not anywhere near Neitzian stature at this stage. Looks more comfortable under the Lever-May expert tutelage.

Tom MacDonald’s recharge at Casey got him sparking. The Master Chef panel at DL can now breathe easy. Tommy has 🔥’d up the barbecue and is cooking again, rather than been declared ‘cooked’. Bring out the carnivore!

Adjudication;

Get Optus Stadium’s desire to immediately empty itself of so many undesirables (West Coast supporters). But the rush to declare Bayley’s after the siren goal a point deserves a kick up the behind. So blatantly rushed, undignified and wrong. 

Broadcaster’s;

With Fox’s dreamteam of retiree power forwards. The Demon break-out after half-time must have been a relief. It was almost palpable.

Almost impossible to apply, allocate rankings or competitively indicate this week. Our team has evolved from individual praise on performance to a quality rating based upon linkages and game sustenance between 'groups' (large and small) of players in the process of decapitating an opposition comprehensively. Crowns for best on ground are pluralised in process chains across many increasingly worthy candidates, not just individual beneficiaries.

Fritsch and McDonald can consider themselves unlucky to miss out.

Interested to know what you saw as remarkable in Sparrows game to award him a vote?

I thought it was pretty much meat and three veg type stuff.

I thought Fritsch and Rivers were both great yesterday.  Tracc had a wonderful second half but I'm not sure he was best on over the whole game.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
