First half, good.

Second half, thinking about Port Adelaide.

Spargo can kick longer than 40 metres.

    Can't believe I'm going to have to watch Sparrow have 12 touches a week @ 28% efficiency for the next 8 years

    We had the game iced at half time and then took our foot off the pedal - not ideal -but there it is.

    Dorks came back hard but Petracca, Oliver, Viney , Max lifted as required.

    Yes we produced some bloopers .... that is football ... not the reason for suicide that some of the negative Nancies on this site seem to find.

    Take the points and take the percentage and move towards September.

    PS 1. I'm waiting for the day Kossie actually hangs on to one of those speccys  - it will be mark of the century.

    PS 2. No doubt who Jason Dunstall used to play for !

    PS 3. My ideal finish to this evening will be watching the paper baggers get a jolly good reaming.

    Another 10 goal win game against a team that absolutely bashes us into the ground.

    Teams are absolutely throwing everything at us and we're still winning by 10 goals. It looks uninspiring but these are hard fought wins

    Now to do it against decent oppositon. Freo, Port, Carlton, Collingwood to come.

    Petracca hobbling. Hope he's ok. Didn't look great. I notice he's being interviewed on fox. What's he saying?

    “Full credit to Hawthorn”, “one game at a time”, “gotta keep doing the one percenters”.

    He's taken the boot off. He can hardly walk 

    I hope it’s a corky not a foot. Limping badly.

    WHAT HAPPENED TO TRAC???

    Ankle roll in the Sicily tackle. Spoke to Ben Dixon after the game and seemed ok. Should be good to go next week.

    Tracc might be out next week by the looks of that unfortunately

    Dunstall obviously hasn't forgotten about Earl's knee.

    Well Petty has shown us why Goody perservered.

    A lacklustre win despite the score somehow. 

    Props to Jv, Oliver and Trac.

    Edited by leave it to deever

    • 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?
