We are getting smashed. Time to try something different. McVee and Kolt to the guts.

    Lever [censored] lazy defending!

    Sparrow too busy guarding space when Fyfe was by himself.

    Petty is as weak as a butter in every ruck contest.

    Embarrassing display. About ready to turn it off.


    Nice easy training run for Freo. Fullarton couldn't have done any worse than our current rucks. This is just embarrassing.

    We're lucky not to be down by 10 goals already.

    Bombing it down the line with no ruckman isn't working, need to run and overlap to break through their zone.

    Winning a clearance or 2 would be a good idea as well.

    Petty to FB

    Yep i agree with that

    Chin's man in the middle there.  He was just ball watching even after they held it up for 10 seconds on the wing.

    Disgraceful defending

    switched off. 

     

    This is worse than the last time we played them and that was the worst game I’ve seen us play under Goodwin. 


    At least we have the bombers loss to remember.. might turn on that replay 

    Fell right into Walters lap, it's all going right.

    Something isn't right with Lever 

    Just gonna chuck the rods in the car.

    Glad I’ve waited all weekend for this. Can’t believe this is how we play when a top 4/5 spot is on the line……No ruckman is a disgraceful decision. 


    Goodwin has to do something different. We can’t have another smashing or one team will cost us finals.

    • 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?
