    i think we have something to work with here still 18 or 19, don't think he is ready for a game this but next year definitely worth a shot

    he's not yet 19

    very raw but has pace, which is a big plus

    Gee would love to see kynan & taj produce something tonight

    along with billings and laurie, they're both very vanilla - show nothing that indicates that they can step up to afl level

    patrick ireland is an interesting type - not hugely tall, but mobile and attacks it in the air

    Young defensive talls going well. Howes intercept.

    Verrall has got stronger in the gym standing up in ruck against taller opponent.

    Taj Woewodin nice touch over the boundary.

    Bees 🐝 umpire assist goal.

    Casey get repeat inside stoppages.

    Will Verrall free fifty goal.

    Adams and Howes by far mfcs best. Culley doing ok as well as Billings. Laurie struggling it seems playing purely as a half forward.

    Mitch Hardie. Controversial thinking. Draft him in. Late pick. He will walk into our best 22. Know how to play half forward. Knows how to kick goals. Hits targets.

    Skill errors galore by both teams at the half

    Nobody apart from Howes, and perhaps, Adams pressing for senior selection at this stage.

    Verall looks like he is worth persevering with, especially in that second ruck role, if he can develop some forward craft. Howes stands out. Billing’s has been good but desperately looking for something big from our younger guys, e.g. Kentfield.

    Surprised how poor the standard is, wouldn’t hold their own against a decent suburban team, absolutely hopeless.

    Menthol and Kentfield , not up to it.

    It’s hard to believe how many absolute garbage commentators Ch7 has.

    Thank Christ they’re not umpiring.

    Charlie Spargo “provocateur” heats up the half time entertainment.

    Cooler heads prevail it was looking like an all in stoush brewing.

    5 goals 5 behinds balances the ledger.

    Positive spin on the game, it’s a contested defensive pressured performance. Casey ground some ascendancy that qt.

    • 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?
