    4-15 it is beyond pathetic.

    This year Billing 1-5, Woey 0-4, Culley 0-3 and someone I forgot 0-4.

    Seriously these are still senior footballers.

    Not even talking about the missed handballs and kicks.

    18 AFL listed players playing for us at our ground.

    Lever turns it over and then Jeffo misses from 15 out.

    Which coach has them cut back into the corridor? The lack of skill to hit a target has cost 3 goals so far. I think Jeffo just did a hammy but has contributed little. The lack of skill and turnovers is unforgivable. Kolton having a mare and cannot get near the ball and just like the seniors our forward line structure and cohesion is sub standard. We have 18 AFL players on the park today and they are getting pantsed by Southport.

    This is hard to watch. Terrible entries in to the forward line and shots on goal are worse. I just don't understand our inability to kick to advantage. It beggars belief.

    Tholstrup looks so disinterested. Clearly having a sook in the VFL.

    Going to be a long 3 years until his contract runs out

    Now Culley from 20 misses.

    Meanwhile the Sharks go down the other end and goal again and again and again.

    5-3 to 8 behinds, shameful football.

    Jeffo finishes the quarter with an out on the full.

    Southport getting away from Casey - as you would expect when a team kicks 8 behinds in a quarter. The Demons are 4.17.41 to the Sharks 9.7.61.

    Goals Cross Hardie Jefferson van Rooyen

    I think Blake has been pretty unlucky at the top level this year. He hasn't struggled IMV, but he hasn't had huge impact and there are other defenders ahead him.

    I just wonder if they need to try him on the wing or at half forward where he played his junior footy.

    I reckon we're gonna be alright for tall defenders, which will enable us to play Turner and probably Petty forward long term.

    Howes has definitely struggled at AFL level this year and has made too many critical errors. In particular, fumbles and poor handballs. He needs to be ultra clean because he has no real penetration in his offence.

    Sestan, Adams and Howes all look ok, Kentfield a couple of saves but the rest, oh dear.

    Tholstrup playing like he thinks he should not be out there. His efforts today from my observation have been nothing short of pathetic.

    I've wathed the last 25 mins and thought exactly the same thing.

    I'm a big kolt fan but he's gone down in my estimation. i realise thats a big call given its only a quarter of footy, and he'll learn, but I put a huge stock in players who get dropped but don't drop their head.

    Made worse by the fact that goody gave him mutiple games to prove himself and he gave goody nothing.

    Wear the red and the blue and effort is 100% non negotiable.

    One of the most ridiculous things I've heard this year is two Demons fans calling into senior after our win over the tigers furiously calling for goody to he immediately replaced as senior coach by choco Williams.

    Blokes supposedly our kicking coach and in my 50 yearsof supporting the dees I don't think I can remember a list that accross the board is so woeful at kicking.

    Jefferson ❌

    Billings ❌

    JVR … looking lost

    Hey Freo … Kolt might be available!!

    Kentfield. Adams. Howes. Sestan. They are just ok. Just !!!

    Still in the game if they are half interested

    Stop kicking sideways and run through the corridor.

    This game has reinforced a lot of my views.

    JVR is a defender playing forward (and is being played forward because he is a good set shot kick for goal).

    Jefferson is a bust.

    K Brown could make it.

    Sestan could make it.

    Howes is a good VFL player.

    Culley is way too slow.

    Campbell is a very good backup.

    Verrell is not strong enough or good enough at ground level.

    I don't think Adams is a good enough kick to make it.

    Overall, out list management decisions have been too conservative in turning the list over.

    Oh please. If we'd kicked 17.5 or even 11.11 we'd be winning. Pretty clear what we need to work on

    That's true, except it has been the problem for at least 3 years and we are actually getting worse.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
