Dan Houston will not play a final this year. At least 4 weeks for that, should be 6

Michael Christian, not the sharpest tool in the shed,  will see the jumper and call it a football act.

    if keane wants to leave adelaide to go back to the city of melbourne, i wonder whether he could be part of the package for nibbs?

    would allow us to leave petty - jvr - turner as three key forwards, with keane the replacement for plugger mac and, eventually, may

    i must admit i'd rather a player than a pick for nibbs

    Houston may get 5+ weeks for the hit on Rankine. Shoulder made direct contact with the head, no mitigating factors.

    What is going through Houston’s mind?

    I’m going to the Dees,  actually…I don’t want to go there. Where is Casey anyway? Oh shiitt…hope Izak is alright. One thing is for sure, I’ll be watching the finals on TV. 

    This last quarter could be epic in the showdown.

    Thinking close to double.

    Sitting duck with Houston not protecting himself, just causing maximum damage.

    More like Webster?

    Didn't jump off the ground and the ball was right there, so not nearly as bad as Webster in pre-season.

    King reckons he might get 8

    That seemed a little over the top by King there. Parker got 6 weeks running past the ball and wiping someone out. Houston's action looked more "in play". I'd imagine a 4 to 5 week suspension would be likely.

    Silly way to end his Port career. And kissing involvement in finals goodbye too when they're 2nd on the ladder!  Hinkley must be spitting chips.

    Damn shame Brisb lost.  It let Geel finish in the top 4 and have the double chance.

    Poor game by the Cats today but they are always a fearsome team and could easily take out the premiership which imv would be a terrible end to the season.

    Dam you daniher. If you kicked that goal you would have put your team up by 23 points.

    Unfortunately the filth are still alive.

    • 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?
