    Yep.  Found his feet a bit in that second half, particularly the last Q

    Missed the last quarter but it was mainly play on and fumble for the first three quarters. A pleasant change from hugging the boundary line.

    Let's see how it develops as the season goes on

    I don't get to training so I can't comment but on bigfooty a regular Melbourne supporter who attends said in all the pressure season training he went to, goalkicking practice was completely non existent. 

    Yes, the player do it on their own spare time after training but from he was saying there is a no structured training in place for this.

    If that's the case, then it makes sense that we are a very inaccurate team when shooting for goal

    One of the better games I have seen for us from Fullarton. Baldi was our best. TC was great. Bonner was good, but disposal was iffy at times. Handy game from Langford. Mentha didn’t get much of it but I liked what I saw when he did.

    Goal kicking was terrible. Lots of very straightforward shots.

    Yes. But he needs to take more care. Highly skilled but last qtr had 3 turnovers and a useless hand pass that put Sestan in a tackle. Was the right choice - just terrible execution. He was there to get the loose ball though. 
    Overall the whole team had too many turnovers but if they kicked straight at the start they wouldn’t have had any pressure.

    Casey showed some grit in the last. Campbell, Baldi, Craven and Langford flying the flag in the last stanza. 
     
    Somebody put their hand up for Specialist Goal Kicking Coach?

    oh yeah Picket!!!

    Baldi kept us in it. 
    TC got a lot of the ball but so many turnovers. 
    And what was he thinking when taking the boundary kick in?? Bonner, Sestan, Adams, Hore and others were all there.

    Missed the last quarter so little said by me on the players, but I’m a big fan of the English fella doing the commentary. Knows the players, and adds extra tidbits when he sees appropriate lulls. His off sider who was doing special comments, awful. Added very little of value and brought any banter to a virtual standstill, which speaks to the the others guys skill being able to overcome the handicap. Glad he does a lot of Casey matches, hope he gets some help soon though.

    Anyone tell me why Bailey Laurie is still on the list.  I know we have to give youngsters chances to shine but he’s had chances & is going backwards.  I saw him in the under 18s and he had a yard of pace, was smart and could hit a target in left or right foot.  Seriously has not developed at all and I couldn’t see why we extended his contract.  Given what he shows, this has to be his last year.

    • 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?
