Fixture ok...could be a lot worse.

Its time we embrace Stinklands as venue and learn to master it. Still hate the place though.


 

Why cant we get a home game against essendon at the G. Three years in a row now.

It's the cost of having a guaranteed home game against the Pies on Queens Bday every year.

Five Saturday night games. First bye comes is Round 10 (after Richmond, before Alice Springs). Second bye is Round 18 (second week of the split round).

Because it is part of Essendon's punishment? Let them be saddled with the low gate returns.

Overall it is not bad relative to our under achieving. A huge bonus not to go back to Geelong.

Two Sunday twilight games (away v Essendon in Round 13, home v North Melbourne in Round 14).

Two Saturday twilight games (away v Adelaide in Round 7, away v Hawthorn in Round 20).

About time we play Geelong and North Melbourne at the MCG!

Btw I don't reckon the fixture is that bad at all? chance for some early wins.

No, neither. Both of them are once-only games, home games (Brisbane at Etihad).


Dreadful draw from a commercial point of view and the game at Etihad is just another kick in the guts.

We cannot make any money from this draw and I'm sure that PJ is less than happy, there are two games where we will make a profit Collingwood and Geelong.

Interesting return trips against Port, North who are middle-top tier teams, and repeats against West Coast who had an off year pose some threat. Some good home games though.

Queens Birthday home again helps us. Better revenue than last year, but slightly harder fixture game wise. Enjoy Paul.

I reckon our run up to the bye is sensational, with only Swans top 6, and the rest within the realm of possibility...

Really need to used the first half of the season to build some confidence and momentum.

Interesting.

If (big if) we can get a win against the Saints in Round 1, you'd hope that our opening home game in Round 2 could pull a decent figure (more decent than what we're going to get in Round 21 v GWS, anyway). But yes, the draw is financially abysmal.

It is good in that respect

We are a sneaky chance to be up 4-1 for mine

  • 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.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    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.

  • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

    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?
