I watched Oliver very closely that quarter. He is plonking it up big time. Multiple occasions where he can go for the smother and he doesn't bother. Once he's out of the contest he stops. Also, maybe I am reading into it too much but I always noticed players slapping hands/backs when they run past each other. I saw three occasions where Oliver ran past a team mate during a dead ball and there was no interaction. It almost seemed like once the other player realised it was Oliver, they hesistated to acknowledge him. Twice was Langdon. The other time was Viney.

    Throwing his body at the ball for that intercept/mark. It wasn’t much but it was effort and attack.

    our ball disposal is still pretty poor, we are getting away with it because we are playing north. hopefully we will continue to get away with it and get the 4 points.

    Forget scoreboard ...should almost be level ...nearer 0.0 v 0.0

    Just a scrappy crappy game..... bizarre

    HTB erased from rulebook. Seriously was changed just for the Scott whinge.

    Absolutely this

    The AFL are the biggest bunch of BShiiiteers going

    They imposed the rule for roughly the first two games in the round after the Scott whinge and conference call to Tax Payer Park and then reverted back to the same old crappola

    Not just you. North is way off it. Spirited but way off it. Brisbane is going to spank us. Scared for that game.

    Needs time at Casey. Goodwin has to make the call. We are playing more than a man short because he is a liability.

    ” Just make me look like a jailbird/ meth head with  no unifying theme, design or aesthetic. Try to use just one colour and if you can’t be bothered finishing one just start another in a totally random spot .Until I change my mind or get another concept”

    Love it.

    I reckon it was "make it look like I passed out in my undies at a 21st and my drunken mates have got stuck into me with a couple of Nikko pens"

    Talk about stats being misleading - we’re down in just about every category including disposals, disposal efficiency, contested possession, uncontested possessions, clearances, marks …

    Surely the scoreboard attendant is asleep at the wheel.

    I wonder if Davies was the nice dad and Uniacke the [censored] or the other way round.

    Our disposal efficiency and shot on goal accuracy is putrid. Need to show some improvement in the last.


    Fgs Oliver how about just once you look before you just bang it onto your boot. Maybe find a teammate for once

    • 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?
