Just saw a preview of Bernie Vince's interview. Have to say, I like him even more after seeing it. Can't wait to see the whole thing.

    If we beat them Essendon go into the 8 Hmmmmmm lets beat them anyway

    I have long thought that we will not be reborn completley until we can beat sides like north regularly Time to start Go dees

    By my maths. (which has never been very good) If we beat them by 11 pts or less, North will remain in 8th spot.

    I have a bottle of vodka and dinner riding on this.

    Stakes have never been higher!

    Also I despise North and it's about time we beat them.

    I'm not confident but hopeful.

    Not to confident today but i'm happy it ain't at Etihad. Sick of this time slot cheers AFL. I would love to have us control the game and kick straight so I don't have a heart attack this week.

    What's with the commentators referring to the interchange bench as "the dugout" last time I check we play AFL and not American Baseball.

    Apologies for going a little off topic btw, wasn't sure if this was relatively new or they've been referring to it as this for some time?

    Take 'em out back and shoot 'em. Disgraceful!

    Would be nice if it were legal to shoot someone for being an @sshole wouldn't it??

    Riley as sub, good call. Brings on fresh legs and tackling pressure for the last quarter.

    My North Melb supporting mate says they turn to jelly when pressured heavily by the opposition. Hence their bizarre win/loss games this year.

    Here's hoping we go out there and tackle our asses off.

    Wouldn't mind Riley not being the sub so he can lay some more of those hard tackles.

    well the storm won easily, the vixens got up and won the grand final so to finish of the 3 peat melbourne will win today.

    Plus GWS won so we need the win to jump them again on the ladder.

    Scary thought Luke Beveridge taking over from Paul Roos in 2 years. Hope it's not Mark Neeld all over again. Inspiration. Mark Thompson and don't deviate in the hope of saving $.

    This time slot just shows the contempt that the AFL have for supporters who have young families.

    It's to suit foxtel. They couldn't care less about attendance at the game.

    PLAY-BY-PLAY: Sandy Roberts + Anthony Hudson
    SPECIAL COMMENTS: Gerard Healy + Jason Dunstall

    Surely this is the best commentary team currently possible on TV. A far cry from Dwayne Russell's garbage from last week.

    • 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?
