Who cares about choking and head-space and all that crap.  Today it was all about what was inside the chest cavities of our 22 warriors  that counted the most when it was required.  You bloody beauty!!

    The strength we showed when they took the lead is precisely what we have failed to do this year. And against the 2nd placed side on the road, in the heat. 

    A fantastic win.

    So many times Goodwin goes on about learning, and taking opportunities to grow, etc. etc.  Not just hot air, and we saw today what it means.

    More than anything, what impressed me today was that for the first time we started to show what we've so often sorely missed: maturity.

    Awesome.  When we were behind, we shut it down, won the contest and won the game.  We even knew how to ice it.  Lessons learned and demonstrated

    My wife and her sister are shaving their head next week for cancer, she has raised a bit of money with her sister  to honour the loss of their Mum 20 years ago. It’s happening next Sunday. I was missing the Giants game to be with them, I have just had an argument to which the last comment my wife said was lYou are going to the game, this conversation is over. Over!”

    I love my wife.

    Boy, how much did we miss Melksham last week?  4 goals when the pressure was on was immense.  I love him.

    Even though he faded a little, Weideman gave us a glimpse of what he can give us in the future.  Good hands, mobile and, when he gets his kicking right, he'll slot more than his fair share of goals.

    Bring on GWS, let's smash them back to Sydney and then take on all comers in September!

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • 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.
