    I think Rivers behind the ball was about trying to use him to run and carry.

    One of the more mechanically good kicks in our team can't make the distance.

    I've never known what to make of Jake Billings.

    oh god...billings! going for goal...

    How on earth did we select a mature age AFL forward who can not kick a goal from 35m out?

    Amazing what happens when you lock in on the shoulder at clearances and jump into Darcy.

    Where was this in the 1st half?

    What's with us not turning up when playing Fremantle? Twice in the season already.

    Of course not having a ruck has killed us all around the ground, but the effort has been subpar compared to the last 3 weeks.

    I just want to see us fight in the 4th, not just roll over. Percentage will be huge to have any chance.

    Surely Darcy is gonna run out of juice if they don’t feed him a few burgers at 3/4 time?

    Im not sure what Goodwin or the recruiting team were thinking when they chose Billings.

    Nor why they selected him ahead of Fullo for today's game.

    The insanity inside the FD continues.

    Yep and he’s done both and Salem’s been no different on ball whilst Viney and a little bit of Oliver have got more of it in the middle.

    Good move from Goody. Freshen’s Trent up for next week too.

    How can billings not even score?

    6 goals will be hard but we can at least make this a contest. It’s also sad to see Longmuire so angry, he expected a total annihalation today.

    • 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?
