    Adjudication;

    Down a few blokes, umpires gave the Aints the run of the green for the first three quarters. Than the gas ran out. AFL, if you're serious about improving the game demand that the people who purport to be umpires act professionally. Four umpires on the field spreads the 'talent' very thin.

    Broadcasters;

    Dumped the 'evil' Mudocs for FTA, the game commentary was pretty lame but the post-game was OK after Trac took the mic.

    Opposition Hyperbole Watch;

    The Channel 7 outside broadcast producer has an unhealthy fixation on Ross Lyon. Ad nauseam cues back to Ross grinning away in the box. Luke Darcy kept referring to how cheerful and relaxed Lyon has been since his return to saintdom. Speculation suggests Ross is getting by with "A Little Help from his Friends".

    From the Director's Chair;

    Lovely to see Goody so animated tonight and many DL's relieved we are not "Crying in the Rain".

    May  easily best on ground.

    Petracca

    Salem

    others not worth a vote too many fumbles and poor disposals.

    maybe Viney in for fourth.

    1. Jordon

    A bit surprised there is no love for Jordon. He ran all day, and was very clean.

     

    Yep, JJ ran and ran creating midfield spaces either side of halfway. He opened several corridors in that process, of which only a few were exploited. He plays taller than expected and delivers well, with no hesitations in congested areas. He is a good receiver when seen, and distribution instincts seem good; our players should be seeking him out more rather than bombing or hoping to hit targets further afield.

    How can anyone not give May the 6 votes?

    A FB had nearly 30 touches and 12 intercept marks. He is the main reason we won that game. Saints had more inside 50s but couldn’t get past the Great Wall of May! 

    Phenomenal performance.

    Loved the new feel about our side.

    6 May - phenomenal game, inadvertently involved in two of their injuries.

    5 Trac - when's the last time someone other than Fritta kicked four goals. Adjusted to new role well. May cost him the Brownlow but our forward line looked so much more dangerous and way better balanced.

    4 JJ - Great to see him finally plonked in the guts and the number of times he weaved his way out of trouble was impressive.  His dominance as a matchwinner at VFL level gave him the confidence to be way more than the handbrake (Clint Bizkit's definition) he has been in his wing and high half-forward previously. Amazing what can happen when you try something different, hey Goody.

    3 - Viney - usual courage and run. Our little Everready.

    2 - Salem - Great run dow tackle at ket moment. Just wondered why Lever was allowed to take his free kick.

    1 - Angus - Enjoyed more minutes in middle as well and seems to like variety, although he's best-suited for us as a reliable defender.

    Yep. I think Bowey is very stiff and could’ve really gone anywhere from 3-1 votes.

    • 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?
