    A team effort

    Some coaching moves at last

    fourth quarter was impressive

    An improved forward line

    Defenders solid with disco

    And lastly some lucky sox deserved the win

    1. Oliver - significantly blunted Neale’s impact, and was very impactful himself. Clarrie’s best game for two years, and if it signifies that he has ‘turned the corner’, then look out!

    1. Melksham - a lynchpin in our forward half. Regularly ‘confused’ and out-manoeuvred Andrews, and kicked like the pro that he is.

    1. Gawn - Max was Max. His ruck work throughout, and marking in the last were crucial. What a leader!

    1. Bowey - another excellent contribution, with great (tough) defence, reading of the play, calm head, and precision distribution.

    1. Rivers - tough as nails, and worked his [censored] off all day. His third quarter (in particular) was very influential.

    1. Petracca - another strong game (as we have come to expect from the champ). A few fumbles, and some ‘iffy’ disposal at times, marked him down a bit.

    Several who I could have squeezed in for a vote include: Disco, Kos, Lingers and Chin.

    2 Trac - leading possession getter for the game but appears so low in the votes? Maybe we expect too much of Trac, but he was great again.

    1 Langdon - back to his

    He was keeping them in the game is was hoping he would stop getting possesions

    1. Max dominated all day

    1. Melk

    4. Clayton

    3. Kosi

    1. Bowey

    And to the person who said that Gardner kicked 4 on Max can I point out Gardner played at full forward and was never near Max.

    6 Melksham - getting better with age, the difference between the two sides

    5 Bowey - love to see the ball in his hands

    4 Gawn - give him the Brownlow now!

    3 Rivers - great link up man today, faultless performance

    2 Oliver - worth votes just for the desperate knock on leading to Kozzie's goal

    1 Petracca - his handballing was sublime and would have scored 6 but for his numerous fumbles

    6 - The Captain

    5 - Milkshake - what a great kick Jake is

    4 - Jake Bowey sublime

    3 - Trent Rivers - Riv is now where we expected him to be

    2 - Clarry - Welcome back champ

    1 - Tracca - Back to his best

    Kozzie, Disco, Lingers, TMac, XL all stiff, a great team effort, our best game in a long time.

    Bowey has got back to that (good) arrogant stage where he takes on kicks of all angles and nails them. He was good today. Again.

    Rivers was great. Only played 88 min of game time though. I assume there’s a reason for that?

    3 Maxxy

    2 Rivdog

    1 Oliver (arguably Trac or Langdon get this position, but playing an unfamiliar role, and doing a good job on Neale, but also still getting involved in the game - and his desperate tap-on goal assist in particular, which we really needed, got him over for me. Great to see him working through form and looking happier)

    Special mentions to: Trac, Langdon and Lindsay.

    1. Melk - set the tone from the get go, clear winner over both opponents and stuck it right up em.

      1. Gawn - beat em at the drop, beat em at the bounce, beat em down the line and behind the ball.

        1. Pickett - 2nd best game for the year. Work rate was superb

          1. Clazz - 2nd efforts coming back along with a little more of his old "see ball get ball" instinctive ways

            1. Tracc - 2nd game where his Player Rating trumped his 2024 rating. Might have found his mojo & AFL level fitness again

              1. Bowza - another rock solid performance and his best season so far in the red & blue

    Melksham - the forward we knew we needed

    Rivers - had the he ball on a string

    Gawn - great game, not much competition though

    Bowey - Ace defender

    Petty - superior in the air.

    Mc Vee - sneaky good, catching up to Charlie so he rushed his kick was ace.

    • 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?
