    Excellent win, very strongly influenced by our next generation players.  
    My votes:

    6.  Rivers  -  BOG!  His week by week improvement as a mid bodes extremely well for our future, both in 2024 and beyond.  
    5.   JvR  -  his best game at the level.  Another youngster on a significant upward trajectory.  Huge future for a young KPF.
    4.   Windsor  - has shown great potential from his debut in Round 0, and today was his best yet!   
    3.   TMac  -  choosing the right option, and pin point passing by hand and foot were features today.  The only ‘elder statesman’ in my votes, but he’s rediscovered his ‘youth’ as a defender.   
    2.  Pickett  -  always dangerous, and continuing to build his consistency in the combined midfield / forward role.  
    1.   Chandler  -   excellent game as a defensive forward, which was great reward for his outstanding work-rate.

    I reckon we turned an important corner today, but next week will be more testing material.

    6 - Trent Rivers, has taken over the reins

    5 - Jacob van Rooyen, best yet 4.4 could have been 5-6.

    4 - Caleb “The Duke” Windsor showed his full range of skills today, had strong impact

    3 - Tom McDonald provided defensive excellence , I would also love him to go around again in ‘25.

    2 - Kozzie what a great game and loved that he finally took that screamer.

    1 - Mr. Ed Langdon back to his best, looks like he is enjoying playing footy again, maybe a new contract just around the corner?

    Then ANB, Jake Melksham (makes us better), Kolt, Chandler, Salo, Judd McVee, Frittata is back, we batted deep today, great team effort, no passengers.

    6 Rivers - looks at home in the midfield

    5 JVR - at last several confident aggressive contested marks - pith that his sharp shooting wasn't his usual 

    4 Windsor - cool calm and collected and love his disposal

    3 TMcD

    2 McVee

    1 Kolt

    So many after #3 that there will be a lot of apologies

    Quite remarkable to think that it is more than feasible to say that our best 5 players on the ground were 23 and under. Rivers, Windsor, Kossie, JVR and McVee. Honourable mentions to Chin, Kolt and AMW. Add to that most of our established  'stars' were good to average it's a very encouraging performance.  Sure, it's only the Eagles, but it's a 10 goal mauling.  Not sure if this has occurred often in the AFL.

    • 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.

      Captain Max Gawn still has a massive lead in the Demonland Player of the Year Award from Christian Petracca, Kozzy Pickett, Jake Bowey & Clayton Oliver. Your votes please; 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

      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?
