Maybe Sidebottom is someone we should be trying to lure to the Dees.

Would complement our midfield.

would take serious coin to get him to wander down swan road to our joint.

he would definitely add some cream, but we'd be giving something good up to get him, no doubt.

Saints now 5th on the ladder.  Taking their chances, the exact opposite of what we do.

Although it must be nice having an almost empty injury list.....

I must have spoken too soon when I said sooky Melbourne supporters wouldn't be able to take St Kilda winning personally.

They've earnt it. For the most part they have turned up to play and taken their opportunities. When they play a bottom team (e.g. Hawthorn) they make he most of that and make sure they win. We've done the opposite and it's why they're ahead of us again this year and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. 

We need leaders to help get the boys up so they don't drop games to bottom teams. We're going nowhere until we can turn that corner.

If St Kilda get some injuries, they'll be in big trouble. They still rely on too few IMO.

All clubs are in the same situation, The Aints are getting the job done

That's all you can ask

Yeah but I get what he is saying.

They lost Reiwoldt for one game and that's pretty much it.

They beat Carlton by 19 points.... not something to write home about.

They are being overrated big time by the media.

That is true but in a season where the top 8 is wide open they will probably make it because they have won games they should have and thrashed the bottom teams to get a good %.

Whether they deserve to make the 8 is a moot point.  The cards are falling their way.  I just wish it was us.

No they're not. It is a tight competition and this year a win is a win, there will not be many massacres in 2017

Carlscum are not that bad and Bolton is no fool

Tonight WE can win if we fight hard enough against the odds

The Aints have a lot of young kids who are learning to win, so far far they are learning faster than the MFC

Very early in the season to be saying this, mate. St Kilda may well have been saying similar things after Round 2. Long way to go yet and anything could happen.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
