    didn’t kentfield kick terribly in the twos? and we want him in?

    agree Jeffo has to be out but maybe we go smaller?

    Kentfield and Windsor kicked 2.6 combined

    I think they have earned the right to join the fun!

    If Fritsch is not omitted something is seriously wrong.

    This.

    Good enough for Lever, good enough for Tmac, certainly good enough for Fritsch!

    I want to see Rivers and Chin spend 50% of the game in the middle

    Losing to Norf twice in a season might just be the end of me

    Spargo for Sharp and Fritsch to sub would do me, give the concussion guys an extra week.

    We need big changes but Casey is so devoid of talent.

    No point exposing Kentfield when he had no preseason unless his Casey form becomes undeniable. It’s good, not undeniable yet.

    Also think Jeffo is getting judged a little harshly. He hit 2 targets inside 50 today (JVR and Kolt for the unpaid free kick) which alone puts him ahead of most of the side. Give him one more against a lesser opposition.

    Based on that, he'll fit right in.

    Not sure if the 2 concussed boys return.

    Drop Fritch and leave him there for the rest of the season. His efforts are not worthy of a senior spot. Sharp can go to Casey and play a full game and KOlt cannot be promoted until he earns his spot with some outstanding form at Casey. Not sure about Lever either he got all his kicks from marks but looked slow and is struggling with any ball below his knees. Clarry I have finally conceded is not the player he was and should probably go to Casey for a stint (mighty expensive VFL player)

    The trouble is who is breaking down the door at Casey to get promoted.

    Is there any confirmation about Xierri and a concussion? LDU is definitely out


    it’s really hard to give AF

    pretty much reverse death riding essendon is the only thing keeping me watching

    Out Oliver, Fritsch, Jefferson Tholstrop & Sharp

    In Laurie Windsor Kenterfield, Culley & Tmac

    Tmac to the backline

    Throw Lever forward.

    Will that work.. (Ricky ) ....w v f knows ... but could be fun.

    Not like anything matters much for the rest of the year. So what the hey

    Roll out the barrel

    I may give a F once we hear the news about the change of HC.

    I mean, the reality is just letting Simon go won't be enough.

    But hopefully a new guy can revitalise our list and stops playing favourites. Add to that being ruthless and really shaking up the list for next season with some key trades.

    • 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?
