So a guy who can kick and is composed, for a guy who can’t and runs around like a headless chook?

Go watch the ‘21 prelim - Smith 4 goals including clutch match winner -  Salem can kick but never uses it to hurt opposition -  consistently hits 15-20m targets - often lateral -  and doesn’t get on the park enough and will have ongoing thyroid management issues - ship him out while he’s  some value.

    No thanks we need a no di@#head policy at the Dees, definitely don’t want anymore unwanted attention.

    Also no more players with poor disposal into the forward 50, Caleb Daniel on the other hand would be nice& half the price 

    Is that the same Caleb Daniel whose apalking kick out of defence resulted in Angus’ game changing goal in the 2021 GF?   He shanked quite a few.

    Pretty sure he was selling tickets to some show down on the Bellarine called the Bailey Smith Experience...with a pic of him with no shirt on...your guess is as good as mine what was in the show:

    I think thats a bit weird isnt it?

    And he gave up chasing Langdon out of backline in the beautiful 4th quarter only to see Langdon mark and goal 20 seconds and 130 metres later. 

    Still would be upgrade for us.

    You have conveniently forgotten the wonderful games Christian has played and been significant in the success of our team.

    Our 2021 Premiership was set up by Salo’s  magnificent first quarter and indeed his whole game. That’s what makes a star on the biggest stage and shows too many people focus on the negatives of players rather than the positives. 

    In very rare circumstances the player sometimes requests a trade and the Club may benefit however to openly move a highly skilled and valued match winner plus great Clubman does not send a great message to other players wanting to join your Club.

    Christian is often tied up with helping nurture and develop one of our up and coming stars on the side in his own time with no recognition generally until that player makes our team or wins a Rising Star nomination.

    Lets saviour the great and good games Salo gives us as much as his high quality Club sprit and contributions he makes overall instead of narrowing in on his unfortunate injuries and style of play in setting up team plays where many in the game waste their talent with erratic disposal.

    I’d swap out Salem and pick for Bailey in a heartbeat-  his best is A grade

    I will say this again; culture.

    You cannot preach about having a good culture, and then trade out a contracted Salem for Bailey Smith. Ludicrous suggestion.

    He misses quite often later in matches.  Seems to start off ok.

    Might be (one reason) why he's sitting on the bench or not in the starting 22 as often this season?

    daniel's disposal efficiency and defensive workrate have plummeted in the last couple of years from his best seasons

    it will be interesting to see where he sits going forward in the make-up of the dogs' side

    Haha I actually wasn't really knocking it, I just had no idea what the heck "the Bailey Smith Experience" would entail.  Not sure why he needs a photo of him with a shirt off, maybe he stripped for part of the show??

    Good on him though, why not sell some tickets to whatever that is in the meantime...I really am very curious to know what it was!

    • 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?
