6 tackles from Viney to open his account, setting the tone at stoppage early. Need to play simple smart footy.

    Should be another 3 goals up

    At least!

    Tholstrop criticism is a bit over the top. Just needs to keep it simple. More gametime is what he needs, not less.

    The draft selection was baffling in itself.

    Just now, whatwhat say what said:

    kolt has been appalling

    trying to do way, way too much

    we're lucky they haven't kicked straight

    Yea but I'm liking our intensity.

    As many as they have missed, I reckon we have fumbled away just as many.

    Do I'm not stoked but if we keep this pressure up it will go a long way to getting three wins in a row and a season back on track.

    Need much more from Sparrow and Kozzie.


    Kolt is overthinking it and trying too hard. The kid just needs to back his instinct and keep it simple. I will back him in unlike some of the ridiculous keyboard warrior comments I just scanned.

    We’re pressuring well and moving the ball well until we get to launch and then we look a touch lost.

    We need to get a break on the and take their confidence out of it.

    Give it a rest, it’s one game. One quarter in fact. The kid will be absolutely fine.

    Stop talking sense.

    Spot on, how bout telling Viney to give a handball !!!

    He can't kick


    Viney hacking it out from backline should have cost a goal. Lucky

    Fix the brain fades and forwards getting in each others way, we win easily.

    Bolt is so close to having a great first quarter. A few fumbles, but continually in dangerous positions. Have faith.

    Gee the Eagles are bad. Surely we can't lose this

    • 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?
