    Yeah well im sick of people carrying on about him.

    Blowing our loads over players such as Bruce and Yze tells us alot about their supporters..

    Good on their day but soft... Chook, Bate and Jonsey are the blokes we should be admiring.

    Dont worry

    Your comments about Bruce are spot on

    Nope. Godfrey, in my mind, was easily in our top 3 today, with Johnstone and Sylvia. No, he wasn't able to keep either of the 2 best midfielders in the AFL quiet (one of which is possibly the greatest ever - was unstoppable today), but his work in the contests was excellent. Without him, I'm not sure we would have won any clearances at all.

    MILLER - what to do? he has absolutely no confidence - gets a mark and looks to hand off, gets a touch and doesn't know what to do. Why didn't Daniher just let him off the leash in the second quarter. Put him in the middle and tell him to hit and hurt some one - or drop him to Sandy for four weeks.

    yeah, all on the bruce 'bandwagon.' honestly can't see why he's so highly rated.

    tough on wheels i reckon, he was so hard at it and def not 100%. threw his body in, yet started on the bench (something that doesn't happen when he's fit) and i think as soon as they kicked ahead in the third he was taken off. i could be wrong, but i dont think he played much of the second half, definitely not right

    More to the point, why didn't Daniher put him in the backline, when Ferguson was off and Carroll was getting his arse handed to him on a platter?

    He was finally moved into defence with 10 minutes left in the match, and did a couple of pro-active things.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      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?
