Leaving tomorrow morning. Probably won't be back for a while so ..... Statute of limitations. 

Damn. Well I was looking forward to catching up with some fellow Dees, hopefully next time. I’ll be over for the first final (wherever it is).

    Perfect record against the Weagles at the new ground 2 from 2.

    Not a bad record given we've only played one game there.

    God I love Vanders toughness! Some of his tackles and challenges where critical, blokes are always looking for where he is lurking.  Thoughts on the elbow? I’m assuming a fine? Or 12 months out of the game?

    To Saberfang and the other clowns who spent the entire week bagging the playing group, about time you all had some faith, it won't happen this year but we are heading in the right direction.

    Massive effort today by all and showed mental toughness when they fought to get the lead back

    We got a good run from the Umpires I thought considering it was over there. 

    You’re joking I presume?

    For all the flak our forward system gets its the first time the eagles have conceded 90 points since round 1.

    Go dees!

    Okay, THAT was the omen we were waiting for! Hope your kid is having a f**king great time right now. Out in the back yard playing the grand final as Max.

    Hah. I jumped through the roof when Melksham put us back in front (geez WC would be spewing how easily he got off the chain) and nearly burst in to tears when Kent put it through. That was the biggest stress relief feeling I’ve had in many years. I love this club.

    That last 8 minutes was nail biting.... i was just glad to be on the other side of a close win in a big match against a rated club.  The last i can recall in that situation was QB last year.  Super relieved

    Must admit when they got a point up that was it for me couldn’t watch check scores 10 minutes later and we are 3 goals up, nearly fell of my chair that’s a sort of win that can release the mental shackles

    I have legit been crying since that Kent goal. My daughter and missus think I'm an idiot. They clearly dont understand what this [censored] club has done to us supporters for over a decade

    It might sound silly but I thought West Coast hitting the front as ‘early’ as they did was helpful. It refocused and galvanised us. So incredibly proud of all of the players. A fantastic effort over there. 

    Shout out to the recruiting staff. What did we give up for Hibberd & Melksham? Where were Tom McDonald,  Hannan, Harmes, Jetta and Fritsch drafted? 

    What a day. Let’s all get to the G next week and bring back a home final.

    • 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?
