Who’s missing from our best side….Petracca and Windsor a first year player. 
Is Salem best 22 anymore?

We have 14 Premiership players today.

I wonder what the record is for most Premiership team players in a team to lose by 10+ goals.

    We should trade Salem to be honest.

    I'm glad so many of you can switch over to the Olympics, I'm stuck with this.

    He won’t get you more than a third rounder.

    Apart from losing contested possession, we are leaving 1 or 2 Dogs players 2 handballs wide of the contest, and then missing most tackles when they press through. Or they go around us. 

    Lever - you have a player, defend him every so often.

    May & TMac - doing a power of work.

    Bont is a star.

    I'm starting to worry about players including Salem, May, Fritta, Lever, Kozzie, Oliver and even Viney.

    Players who should be at the height of their powers yet here we are.

    Clearly the premiership window isn't closed....looks like it's been bricked over.

    This team is not even a ghost of that Premiership team. They should be ashamed of themselves, or just raise their hands as say 'I am not good enough atm'.

    Not sure what we’d get much and to who?

    Yes I’m open to it.

    How many tackles has Oliver missed? 

    Has anyone laid a tackle? I can’t remember one. 

    Seems Yze was the coaching mastermind behind our success. Came in as midfield coach and won a flag with top four years running. Since Mcqualter took over this year we've been rat****. Our stoppage work and lack of clearances recently have been the worst in memory, worse than the Neeld years somehow.

    So be it. He can't contribute anymore and is injury prone.

    Thanks for your service Salo.

    I’m changing my mind every 5 mins with reload or rebuild.

    Premise being reload what? a super soaker? 

    Yeah same here Gawndy. But when you look at how bad Casey are travelling it’s looking a bit grim. 

    only 4 goals down.

    if we could just stem this flow and breakeven this quarter they might tire in the second half

    i'm probably dreaming but they are coming off a 5 day break

    90% of Clarry's disposals this year have been dump kicks or hospital handballs to teammates under pressure

    Not to mention second efforts result in holding the ball.

    North or West Coast I guess.

    Somehow they found a way to load up with spuds who are at Casey’s for a team  in a premiership window, it’s as  if they wanted to push this team off the clif with the dumbest trades and boot out an  All Australian ruckman in Grundy & watch Gawn play on 1 leg … it’s a comedy show & amateur hour from our coaches & recruiters

    • 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?
