Maybe not. He might also be accredited as a Voluntary Assisted Dying doctor.

In which case he’s doing quite well.

    Probably the worst our defence has looked all year. Giving away dumb free kicks (T Mac, Lever) Soft efforts ( McVee, Salem) and just generally disorganised. And can Turner spoil sometimes! Argg!

    if we sort this out, we should win. but just because north are garbage and missing 4 of their best

    Luckily North are a terrible team also and can’t kick

    1.4 in that Q

    North are the second most accurate kick for goal in the comp. We should poach their skills coach.

    In close handball disposals are killing us, leading to turnovers with North players loose on the outside. Over and over again. Unfortunately, senior players the worst culprits - Salem, Trac & Viney.

    Put a hard run-with tag on McKercher (absolute jet this kid).

    Great to see Jeffo and JVR having a crack and I am loving their efforts.

    I have been a supporter of the Kolt for most of the year but his jogging around today is actually disgraceful for a kid trying to keep his place in the team. No pace or intensity at all, and not helping his team mates.

    The last 10-12 minutes they cut us to pieces around contested ball spread. Even this out and we win well.

    Tmac should never have been dropped.

    Six marks. Our leading marker by heaps.

    Tmcd better option than Lever right now.

    Both cannot run but Tmcd can spoil !!!

    That's why these games are important.

    We play every youngster and discover who to keep.

    Is that what we're doing though?

    Disco is not having a great game. North making him accountable and he’s struggling at the moment.

    That exit was always going to a turnover. No dash terrible


     

    Is running around in circles on the wing and hand-balling over our heads or to players that have to jump to receive the ball, part of our new game plan? Asking for a friend.

    • 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?
