The kid is barely in the door. Of course he would get a full off season to see where he sits.  This is just getting used to your team mates ands settling in time.  He is not a unicorn, he is a young tall that cost the club very little. Give him space and see what happens,,,,

Well we’ve flicked a mid season draftee off before after 6 months in Kye Declase so was just asking

    Half the Melbourne players have all checked out.

    Hunter should just retire in the spot. That was an embarrassing performance from a more senior member.

    Why do you think Dogs got rid of him?? Poor due diligence by our club which is unbelievable as common knowledge..first hand knowledge

    Does Kentfield get a summer to prove himself next year? 

    Unless his attitude is the problem he should certainly get the preseason 

    first time he would have trained properly

    Disappeared under an avalanche of WBd’s goals. Moves well and has neat skills just needs to be more involved.

    Good to see Jeffo have another decent game

    4 goals in a losing team is good output. I didn’t see the game but he seems to know how to kick goals when having an average day.

    He seems like he's a high impact guy like Fritsch, doesn't need many touches to put the scores on the board

    Not only does it white ant ( rather than support) the senior competition, it also makes winning a flag in this competition seem kinda devoid of value.

    This should be the second best competition in the nation.

    It seems like it's being run by clowns.....

    Oh hang on

    The Quambatook Fifths are comparatively graced by a better-organised fixture. Similarly, Nar Nar Goon Fourths have benefitted from games held Saturdays - without abnormal variations - and their occasional visits to their Tribunal authority are as smooth as afternoon tea and scones in a sun-filled meadow with a large herd of grazing cattle strolling by to gain insight into some well-planned, civilized banter.

    Who cares.. they were early losses of the season.

    They're timing the run beautifully at the right time of the year. One of the most inform teams in the competition alongside Brisbane and Hawthorn. 

    Every chance they could finish too 4.

    I'd play him yes.

    29 goals from 16 games this year. Eventually you need to reward form at some stage.

    I'd have preferred Hunter was gifted his 200th tonight. Then the Bulldogs could chair him off rather than our blokes.

    I'd rather he never pull on the red and blue again.

    We don't owe him anything.

    True. He played today like he'd already retired

    Kentfield is still only 18 and has come over from the west mid season. While he hasnt pulled up any trees here yet, he surely deserves a pre seson etc to see how he goes next year.  The delivery has been generally deplorable at Casey this year which hasnt helped. Id like to see how he goes with a pre season under his belt and him growing a bit more into his body.

    Terrible game by so many. Slow and sloppy doesn't describe the relative failures on every line.

    Not sure that playing at Casey when they are in this form does anything for player development.

    One standout was the number of broken tackles allowing run on play by the Dogs.

    Time to draw a line under this annus horriblis.

    • 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?
