Dogs look very ordinary. A lot of their players look to have stalled. Smith doing nothing. 

Meanwhile Port are having that season where their second tier talent are playing well above their expectations. Be interesting to see if they can keep it up for a year. I think Ken may have stacked the cards for an all out assault early. Will see in the second part of the year.

    See the nastiness in Port when a team mate is manhandled, or even just tackled aggressively.

    Haven’t seen that with us for a few years.

    The real question is, who has the worst tatts, Liberatore or Dixon.

    8 mins to go and Arthur Jones hasn’t had a single possession.

    Naughton being wasted in this Dogs side. 

    Would rather get Treloar.  Exactly what we need in the middle.

    Not sure how he keeps getting a game lately.  

    BT talking up his 6 tackles

    Is it fair to say that the only way Port or Brisbane win this year’s flag is if they play each other in the GF?

    Can’t see either overcoming the home state and home ground advantage that Collingwood will likely own this year.

    Dogs really unlucky there. I’ve seen our defenders get decapitated on a goal line  shepherd.

    On reflection Dan Butler should be fine, I doubt Dan Christians even knows there was a game on a Thursday night.

    Didn’t watch the whole TV of the game - did the commentators say he could have a problem?  If not how did Christian even know about it?

    Poor defending from the Dogs there, especially Daniels 

    Daniels “elite disposal” overrated in my experience.  Turns over too much.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      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?
