Bad decision making and poor skills aren't great traits to marry together

Bad kicking is killing us

Frustrating to watch. Oliver has no idea and half of our guys can’t kick.

Is chocco still running his kicking school our boys are still at prep level

I'd swap T-Mac for Petty in a heartbeat. Petty's kicking is woeful and reminiscent of a backman trying to play as a forward.

Petty will cover 70% of the T-Mac role ok. Macca will at least kick decently if he gets on the end of a few.

Lever in for Petty asap


They are a complete class above. Ball use, ball movement, positioning, they are much better.

 

Our defence is horrendous

Tacking pretty weak at times.

Defending premiers moving forward, and kicking very well.


15 i50s and they have 6 goals

Too easy

Same old same old, do a lot right but let our self down with some simple errors

Contest and offence is alright, not amazing but alright, but gee our defence is horrendous.

Watched Pies v Crows yesterday. Ability to lock the player in the tackle is critical. Dees let too many players get handball away !!! It’s an ongoing weakness.

  • 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?
