Demon Jack

Hopefully a sign of things to come as Gawn and Grundy kick back to back goals. Grundy gets a lucky bounce and kicks his first in the Demon colours.

Bowey big tick. His kicking was a bit off early but he's worked his way into he game beautifully. His body work in contests has been a huge standout.

Goalkickers for those interested 2 to Petracca. Singles to Brown, Hunter, Pickett, Chandler, ANB, TMac

Trac bombs another one straight from the centre clearance as the second period comes to an end. Demons lead 54-15

Saints losing some structure here. TMac kicks his first after Brown's set shot falls short. 48-15

Maxy nearly re-enacts his legendary 55m Prelim goal. Nearly floats through for a goal but not quite.

Viney drills the pass and finds Chandler who converts. Demons lead 42-15

Brayshaw playing defense at the moment.

Bowey having a seriously impressive 10 or so minutes

Didn't realise we had Tom Petty lining up in the red and blue today.

Spargo picks out the needle in a haystack that is ANB (been impressive so far) who slots it! Demons leading 34-13

Sparrow marks the rushed St Kilda kick out of defence but hits the post.

Kozzy doing it all over the ground at the moment

Bowey with a lovely defensive mark.

Melbourne kick an early one in the second as Gawn crashes the pack, allowing Trac to walk into goal

Early thoughts - Hunter looks a player. Had about 8 touches (all constructive) and a goal. - Oliver and Petracca: Business at usual. - TMac imposing early. - Gawn started in the ruck before Grundy came on about 10 minutes in. Gawn then took the final 5 or so minutes. - McVee had a couple of nice moments.

Kozzy on the siren!!! TMac provides the contest and Pickett picks up the crumbs!

Saints starting to control the game a bit. Have had the last several entries to no real success.

Bowey looks a bit rusty with his ball use so far. Took a nice 1 on 1 mark earlier though.

Hunter with his first in the red and blue!

Brown with a nerve settler. Ball use inside 50 impressive so far! Dees lead 8-6 8 minutes in

Most of the play so far has been in Melbourne's forward half aside from the opening 30 seconds

Hunter has had it about 5 times already. Early missed shots from Chandler and Trac and TMac

Word has it that this guy will do the rounds at half time.

Probably one of the more bizarre moments in club history here.
