Coach seemed cognisant he was 'treading a fine line'. Not a sportsman's bootlace, with behaviour emblematic of stepping in...

joeboy tougher assignment tonight. ‘Bambi in headlights’ would have to one of the more striking 3 word analyses you’ve penned. Trust Latrelle gets the opportunity to respond in deed.

A better younger Ross for those who wish to join the dots.

Add Tom Campbell too... AFL listed players of note; AMW got plently of the ball (kicking in helps), showed customary dash and determination, did not lower his colours. Xavier Taylor was actively involved throughout the game with plently of junior dog i50's action. Able to gather the ball and use it efficiently. Will play seniors with aplomb. Oscar Berry deceptively solid with a low centre of gravity and importantly able to keep his feet. Showed an ability the use the ball advantageously despite the pressure. Ricky Mentha Junior appeared to be positioned behind the ball defensively. Was able to impact around the contested ball with speed and elusiveness. Not afraid to go in physically and get the ball. (All of the above had decent disposal efficiency). Paddy Cross not as impactful as his best performances but nonetheless a team orientated performance pressure wise and defensively. Max Heath contested manfully in the ruck against multiple opponents. He was able to take some contested marks but needs to work seriously on his disposal efficiency. VFL players of note; Luke Cheffers team orientated player with a team high seven tackles. Kicked a neat goal early in the game to get Casey going offensively. Ethan Stanley has some exciting attributes, moves with agility, speed and has good awareness. Kicked a couple of super goals against the match momentum in the third quarter. Jesse Craven kicked the lights out in a mini-purple patch during the team's second quarter surge. Courageous and knows where the goals are. Wardell Lual anticipates the flight of the ball and positions himself well to assist his team mates in defence. Riley Bonner gathered plenty of the ball and was diligent defensively around the packs. Ball use efficiency is acceptable according to the AFL website stats but has tendency to turn the ball over.

Casey down the rabbit hole with Lewis ? 6 goals.

Terrific response from Casey, able to pressure the junior doggies ball carrier and often win the ball forward of the pack. Casey smalls and mediums able to execute some accurate and opportunistic forward forays, turning the match into a fiercely contested game. Jesse Craven, Paddy Cross and Billy the Kid now positively influencing the contest. D Lual, Adams and Oscar Berry getting amongst it. AMW continues to play with confidence. Max the Younger starting to impact with his physicality and marking. Against junior bullies bigger bodies.

Positives; accurate goal kicks, free kick ratio, AMW, Oscar Berry mini-purple patch and the team bus got ‘’em there. Negatives; critical decision making and skill errors

Got some fairly flash canteens way way over west Rab, just keep driving. Highly recommended Voyager Estate near Margaret River. Or further to the north Gage Roads or Little Creatures in Freo, if beer is your tipple. Darwin the pickens are decidedly slimmer. But Sari Rasa authentic Indonesian is worth the visit lunchtime only.

Rab the tucker sounds delicious way out west. Like to think Casey can slowly do the junior bullies. To match the ambience of the autumnal afternoon with your favourite apertif or something more bracing.

Steven spoke very well at the press conference. Described the game as 'less than perfect' but praised the team resilience and desire to win. After the sales pitch since taking the reins he was obviously gratified with the team performance. Interestingly he mentioned the AFL hoodoo word 'equity' and the potential advantages, teams may have playing the opening round or coming of fresh off byes. Hallelujah 'learnings' was not spoken of, even as a a rapidly, receding faintest of echoes.

A more than fair summation joeboy. Congratulations! All debutants contributed strongly to the win. Jiath was particularly impressive, contrary to some prior opinion a very solid performer.

Watched at a Saints supporting mate’s. Been treated to a terrific game of football either way. StevenKing’s celebration 3 minutes to go!!! I’m [censored] excited too!!!

Christian’s footy career has had its up and downs. Challenges with thyroid related illness and significant injury have delayed this deserved milestone. As others have alluded to here during his rookie first season. When he auspiciously kicked the winning goal, with 19 seconds to go in Round 13 2014 against the dons. Clearly BOG in the opening quarter of the ‘21 Grand Final. Repeatedly driving the Demons into attack, completely dominating his opponent and delivering the ball lace out to his forwards. Had the pleasure of meeting Christian with my daughter at the Sunday afternoon celebrations after the Grand Final. Found him to a personable, friendly young bloke with a twist of ironic humour. Congratulations Christian. Demon Premiership Champion tried and true.

Impressive! DL’s science knowledge is ahead of the ruck. As Autumn turns to Winter and wet weather prevails how will the AFL sanctioned aerial ping pong fare? It’s been a Wet Wet Wet season in the top end.

Bobo top of the class! gs77 commendation awarded for assisting others. Picket remove the comic from inside your science textbook.
