Collingwood could not play this well again next week just as Richmond could not plat this bad. Only with Richmond we will never know. Game over.

    Nah... [censored] form, never want to see injuries. IF we make it through to next week I'd like to see both teams at as close to full strength as possible

    How in the world was that defensive miskick, in a side trailing, deemed deliberate.

    Seriously, the bloody maggots have zero feel for the game

    Martin 18 disposals, 2 marks, 1 tackle, no score.

    Caddy 10 disposals, 1 mark, 3 tackles, no score.

    Edwards 10 disposals, 0 marks, 4 tackles, no score.

    Castagna 6 disposals, 2 marks, 2 tackles, no score.

    Cotchin's had 23 but how many turnovers?

    Rance was flogged by De Goey and Cox early.

    Nobody saw this coming.

    Do they have hammy’s in the ankle?

    Apparently according to MMM

    I was listening to it on the radio and it’s what they said was happening. 

    Collingwood have been very impressive. Cox scares me. I just can’t see how we stop him. He destroyed us last time we played them too.

    Cox is a confidence player, stop him early and he will have minimal  impact and big part of that is pressure in the mid, where we currently excel.

    Stop allowing cox a free run and jump, realize he's their go to for a contest and crumb off and it cuts 4 goals out. Defensive Collingwood have set up like a diamond staying close enough to an opponent but down the line where they can converge and out number. Like west coasts's defensive set up and tigers failed against them too.

    Pies are playing great footy. 

    8 contested marks from Cox. No way to stop him.

    Got to beat West Coast first.

    If we do, Frost will likely have done a good job on Kennedy. And we didn't have Frost on Queen's Birthday.

    Cox was also putrid against West Coast and GWS. He got his confidence up early but keep him quiet early and he's back to being a giraffe. It's feast or famine with him.

    Collingwood didn’t play Moore because he was under an injury cloud

    Richmond played Martin.

    QED

    Seeing Bucks’ smug face makes me sick. 

    I hate this team so much. Please please please let us win tomorrow, because honestly West Coast are no chance. 

    We are the competition’s last chance of saving the world a Pies victory.

    The footage of the McGuires just made me do a sick up in my mouth.

    I can not wait to beat these pricks next week.

    This is a good result for us

    Its astonishing that bucks is taking pies to a GF after so many demmanding he go.

    Richmond finished 13th in 2016, their supporters wanted Hardwick gone but they kept him, premiership 2017.

    Collingwood finished 13th in 2017, their supporters wanted Buckley gone but they kept him...2018?

    • 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.

      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?
