    Sandringham- 13-12 90 (maric 5, buckley yze 2, newton 1)

    Frankston- 15-12 102

    disappointing performance from sandy, especially considering they were 20 points up at 1/4-time.

    maric was only real highlight- should be in a red and blue jumper next week

    Newton doesn't look interested? Given how ineffectual our forward line was yesterday that is shocking news. Does this guy have no sense of opportunity?

    I hope your wrong BarPen. Please let us know if he lifts in the final quarter.

    Looks like the Melbourne disease is setting in at Sandy as well!

    newton kicked a good goal from 55 meters out in the last

    but frankston defence was far too strong and newton struggled to have an effect

    Bate didn't play I take it?

    6 weeks with a hammy... something is not right.

    The 'hamstring' they speak of better not be in his groin! :rolleyes:

    Matthew Bate played (and dominated) the first half of the Sandy seconds. Moved freely, ran hard.

    This was one of Sandy's poorest games for a long time. Frankston won becasuse of its intensity, desire for the ball and willingness to play as a team. There were 12 AFL listed players in the Sandringham team while the visitors were a no name team that was willing to put in and get the hard ball.

    Very few players put their hands up to play against Carlton. Maric and Moloney were the better of the Demons with a nice performance by Jake Spencer especially after Stef Martin went off injured early in the game.

    Matthew Bate played in the reserves and had 32 possessions including 14 in the first quarter in a 14 goal winning team.

    Excellent news after all!

    Mind you, if he didn't dominate in Sandy reserve I'd be very very worried.

    Newton is really starting to [censored] me.

    :o Jaded...you dropped the "S Bomb" but yes...our FF hope for the future is fast becoming a gigantic laxative. Needs to buck up his ideas

    Bazza, I'd be curious to know whether Sandy's game style has changed this year.

    Stef Martin was playing a fantastic game in the ruck until injured 17 min mark of the first quarter.

    Garland started beautifully in defence & moved to CHF during 3rd Q, did some nice stuff. Really good game.

    Frawley coming along nicely.

    Spencer played a solid game for a kid first game up.

    Newton, I'm dissappointed with his lack of fierceness @ the contest.

    Buckley, a good game, but leaves so much behind, in as much as he could do a lot more. If he learns to work harder & give everything he COULD be a something.

    Maric, a good little game finishing off others hard work. Can work harder & showed some class running around the wing boundary setting up a play.

    Beamer did some nice things here & there thru the game.

    Sandy reserves - 2nd half

    Cheney, looks ok, stands up to intimidation, plays well.

    McNamara, looks allright to.

    Bate got through fine.

    There is nothing funny about being beaten at home by the filth from Frankston and it has been noted not many of the AFL listed champions did a great deal to stem the defeat esp the forward wonderkind Newton.

    Zebgrowler, you are currently paired with the worst team in the AFL, so it's not like we've got great players on our list who are going to star for Sandy. Our AFL team is poor enough, how good do you reckon blokes that can't make our 22 at the moment are?

    But we've given you a good run over the years with some good performances from AFL listed players helping Sandy to a number of premierships.

    I think it's perhaps a bit rough to start having a go at Melbourne now.

    Thanks for contributing Zeb, that's great. Please stay around and throw some more cheap junk for your own amusement.

    More then happy to farm our developing players out to a variety of clubs if it means that they play in the positions that the MFC needs to groom them for!

    So the loss was entirely the fault of MFC listed players?

    Not injured a such, he is suffering from some sort of illness. He wasn't 100% all week.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
