Don't let the score fool you, St Kilda are playing as well as us.

Too many skill errors and too many handballs.

I agree Clint. The one thing in our favour is that we are taking our chances at the minute. We look great going forward.

Agree.

We are making it hard for ourselves at times, but we are the better side right now. We look great going forward and we have been excellent at the contest. Just need to tighten up a little. 

Viney doing a stellar job on Jack Steven as well.

Ordinary ordinary game. 

Really poor skills. Players are looking tired. Clearance work is not great.

We've had a great run with the umpires.

What, because Saints supporters are booing?

You're clearly struggling to find more negative things to post.

Great to see Brayshaw back in the team and getting a few touches. Reads the game so well.

I disagree, I think they got 2 lucky goals out of the 3 they scored. They haven't yet got an answer for our speed, run or pressure and if we tidy up our ball movement, continuing the intensity, we can bury them by half time.

Really liking Brayshaws game. Starting in the Centre and playing a good defensive game while getting a lot of the ball. 

Need our tackling pressure to really lift next quarter

Lucky that two of their marks haven't been paid, but in saying that they missed at least five frees that we should have been given.

Yep, really poor.  Those 6 goals were awful.

Plenty to improve but ball movement when away from contest is good and the forward line is very dangerous.

Kent was probably our best in that quarter. Genuinely exciting when he plays like this.

Watts is looking a class above at times.

Saints full ground pressure could be telling as the game goes on. They tackle like men possessed.

 

And Hickey has Gawns measure, again.

What I like is that it's our second string, not our prime movers, who are doing well. Kent, Harmes, Tracc, M Jones

How good can his kicking be?  He is still prone to the odd brain fart but gee, his kicking over 40-50m is sublime.  His kick to Hogan was perfect and allowed him to body Dempster away from the contest and mark the footy.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
