    Good to see Petracca has obviously learnt that a high ball drop and exaggerated arc pays dividends as he kicks yet another piont🤮

    Windsor, brown, verrell, all getting a bunch of it. Viney and petracca popping up when the game needs correcting. Koz looking dangerous, sparrow looks more confident. There’s a bunch, don’t let 8-15 panicky posters think the sky is falling in the first 3 quarters of a practice practice game get you down

    Zero injuries is all I want from this game. It’s the only thing of relevance to round 1

    Caleb getting involved this quarter. Kynan Brown done a few good things. 
     

    Less tackle today than an empty fishing box though.

    Hore or Adams better play well in the seconds because you couldn’t pick Tomlinson for round 1 based on this effort

    Rivers ball use has been deplorable

    He has been atrocious. May not much better though. Lever the only real stand out in defence.

    The Sparrow charging up the middle and a kick goes to 2 players getting in each others way is the big thing to review in terms of structures.

    A mountain of fat side space and an open 50, short of a completely flubbed kick or simple dropped mark that has to end with a set shot.

    I think there were (and are) enough worrying signs against a second string outfit to warrant some panicky posts, pre-season or not.

    • 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?
