Love bowser. Agree that it would be nice to see him perhaps rotate through a wing. Could use his skills delivering inside 50.

Should reach out to Banana Boat to see if their interested in a sponsorship deal, I'm sure clarry and bowser would appreciate it.

@Demonstone taking a nap?

*they're

Can't believe nascent typed that, what a dumbass

    Good news. No regular players want to leave MFC only fringe players pack up their gear and seek greener pastures.

    Maybe time to move Bowie up the ground because most slots down back are filled.

    No harm in plonking him in  the forwardline during practice matches  if he shows something during the preseason in January.

    Lucky break another two years. Needs to become more consistent, similar to Quanor at Collingwood.we need him to become the stopper of opposition top small forward continually.

    we need him to excel onwards.

    Doesn't have anything close to Quaynors athletic profile. 

    I like what Bowser brings but his 1v1 losses in the d50 have been very costly and he is our weak link down back in that regard. 

    I think he'd be a very handy half forward with his skills and nous around goal.

    Well he's not a patch on IQ. Has quietly become just about the best mid sized defender in the comp

    You have totally contradicted yourself, Rivers is better with more upside with probably 20 others better than Bowey in the comp….but hopefully he’ll get there but be realistic, our friend.

    Bowey is nowhere near Quaynor at the moment. 
     

    IQ is good at defending, good at releasing players further up field, and good at setting up and getting on chain connections. Plus Quaynor’s physical pressure is vastly superior.

    Think he is talking about Isaac Quaynor being the best mid sized defender, not Jake.

    Marlion Pickett debut in the AFL grand final is for me considering his challenges in the past being in jail etc.

    Goodwin's 2 flags in his first 38 or so games is another one.

    Really admire Quaynor as a player. Quickly establishing himself as one of the best lock down small defenders in the game.

    His physical strength for such a young player is very impressive.

    Won some crucial contests in the grand finald and throughout the finals series.

    • 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?
