    Geelong winning the lions share of the contested ball but haven't been able to convert. Tiges have kicked straight and managed to keep the shackles on Cameron although Hawkins looks like he could cut loose.

    Geelong not out of this at all

    Tigers being burned by the umpiring. So many pushes in the back, missed throws, and holding the ball decisions earnt but not given.

    Picket is silky once he gets on the move.  Nice decision maker also

    BT is such an arrogant &^*$. It's a wonder Hodge didn't thump him one during the kicking in danger 'discussion'.

    Remember when umpire dissent was a rule? That was a fun 6 weeks.

    Another overlooked against Smith just then.  Ye olde AFL "different rules for different folk" trick

    I see nothing in Taranto or Hopper. They both look too slow.

    Beat me to it.

    Hopper over rated.

    Taranto poor kick.

    Ffs, AFL get your priorities right

    Was at the Storm game last night, and this pales in comparison to the ref & bunker in charge yesterday

    Like the Tigers of old in that passage

    Jack riewoldt is cooked. Tiges doing well to be ahead considering they have no forward line.

    I know they have some outs, but when was the last time Geelong conceded 50 points in a Q

    I don't know, but not in this game. Do you mean 50 in a half? That would be Rd 7 vs Essendon, two weeks ago.

    Cats fwds aint much better with cameron having to play behind the ball to setup play.

    Richmonds disposal is just junktime and Geelong are only out there putting in  an appearance. With the outs that Geelong have it is an opportunity for Richmond but they seem to have really fallen by the wayside.

    Powell, first contest on the wing hits Jermaine Jones in the head trying to spoil then hits him in the head with his knee. Both incidental, no injury. I assume he’ll offer to sit out two weeks, it’s what he deserves.

    $1m, try at least $1.5m.

    My formula for calculations is based on the amount they are overpaid. For example @Redleg, they would have been better to recruit James Jordon for $400,000 a year and received the same output they are getting for 800K, with considerably more upside it must be said. You could argue for example, with Jack Reewold in his wheelchair, they should have done after Lobe to play second fiddle to Lynch. Cost half the price of Toronto and Hopper and structurally they would be much better off.

    • 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?
