Sorry meant for the Casey game but Iā€™m sure the same will apply

    On the escalator to Level 4 of the Olympic Stand I always admire the old photo of the game's founders, Wills and Harrison. Some serious biceps on Harrison. I bet he lifted.

    Getting your posts in early chook

    Kayo pre- game show (in case anyone missed): what GC have to go to make the finals, and Melbourne are AFL house/ media witches hats.


    A very rare sight on my train. A Gold Coast supporter! I wasnā€™t sure they actually existed

    Feeling good about this one.

    I can't afford Kayo/Fox footy so I can't watch the game. Pretty sure that means we win.

    I'm particularly expecting a whole lot of those small moments of effort and cleverness which turn a game but will never feature in the highlights tapes.

    Today has a Xavier Lindsay vibe.

    Good choice of sub.

    Was calling for this earlier in the week.

    Agreed B B Colin.

    Speaking of marshaling the troops, how does it work with Turner and Jeffo out?

    AJ for Jeffo but who takes Turner's post given Milkshake is only the sub. Perhaps he (JM) will be more full-time because he is the only one that offers any real forward power.

    I think we will see more of Jake that just the sub or at least activated earlier by necessity

    In either case it's a lot to ask from the aging veteran. Showed some scintillating stuff v the Swans in our last 2023 h and a game and several prior.

    Problem being, its two years ago for an already relatively old player. That said if he recaptures any of that form again, it will go a long way to alleviating our fwd line issues for sure.

    No pressure JakeyšŸ˜Š

    And a quick shout out to Jvr and his mate Fritta....pull your fingers out. ..lest a court Marshall approaches. Well at least a good chewing out.

    Ps, Was Disco dropped or injured?

    Thanks BBP.For what it's worth, I find you a pretty good judge of the game so your response would be very much appreciated.

    Litd.

    Is the MCG sound system set high for the hearing impaired?

    Crowd looks pitiful. May not crack 15k. Get ready for more media bashing this week.

    • 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 CampbellĀ with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprenticeĀ Will VerrallĀ 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?
