Defence stood tall and pressure forwards played a massive role. That being said, nobody had more influence on the result than Gawn.

Just a champion

But needs to learn his to kick with a permanent hook

Daylight

5 Rivers for 3 3/4 qtr for his run and carry

4 Sparrow lifted again with his tackling and determination

3 Langdon plays with heart and runs all heart

2 Viney tackling machine (just needs to kick a goal when he has a chance … missed 3 chances )

1 Chandler plays with heart and smart footy

Don’t get sucked into stats - Bowey Salem lazy disposals and little chip kicks time to get real and use the footy with purpose

And strugglers were

The glory that is Demonland. Two posts in a row. One gives Spargo a minus 1 while the other a vote of +1.

My votes:

  1. Gawn 5. Bowey 4. Salem 3. Petracca 2. Sparrow 1. Rivers

Viney's tackling was superb, but he seems to have forgotten the gameplan once he has the ball. Those long dump kicks don't belong any more. (What's worse, is that perhaps he was trying precision passing and wasn't capable of doing it.)

  1. Gawn. I will be able to tell my grandkids I saw this legend play live.

  1. Bowey. Maybe 1/3 of his disposals were those easy ones across half back, but apart from those, this bloke is now our chief distributer. He looks for the 45 degree angled kick, he changes lines and angles, and on the run is a reliable kick finding targets (except for his first kick this game which was a shocking howler).

  1. Petracca. He's not back to his peak, but he is back.

  1. Langdon. The everywhere man. Gets to the next contest, then the next...

  1. Salem. Reads the play so well and distributes well. However, I feel his disposal doesn't often hurt the opposition.

  1. Sparrow. Good to get one of our forwards into the votes. His grunt work and foot skills were great tonight.

Couldn't get Oliver, Chandler and Rivers in.

@La Dee-vina Comedia I am puzzled why anyone would give Charlie Spargo a vote. Amazed. I would not even have Spargo in my top 18 contributors last night to be honest. Sharp contributed as much and perhaps even more in his 1/4 versus Spargo’s full 100 minutes.

Spargo had 3 clear missed tackles where he was pushed aside. Not good enough. Metres gained 96!! 7 possessions. 2 clangers. No pace. No crumbing. No scoreboard impact. He is somehow getting a game!! Chandler is our best small forward by a mile.

We need to add another crumbing pacy goalkicking small forward in this years recruiting.


6 - Max

5 - Bowey

4 - Salem

3 - Rivers

2 - Tracc

1 - Sparrow

Apologies to JV (15 tackles), Clayton, Ed, TMac, May and the musketeers.

You should look at the interplay where there is vision of spargo and Goodwin

  4. Petracca

Rivers, TMac and Lingers all unlucky.

Thought Sparrow showed much improvement.

Still no dominant forward

On the 10th anniversary of the Dismissal, Gough was asked his opinion of Malcolm Fraser. His response, "Malcolm Fraser, much improved".


I think it was part of the final quarter , when Max had come off. He and max were chatting and either before or after Spargo and Goody hugged each other As if to say that went well or worked out. Willing to be over ruled just what I remember not positive when. but after half time

Gawn

Bowser

Viney

Rivers

Sparrow

  • 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?
