Demonland 74,435 Posted April 14, 2019 Posted April 14, 2019 Melbourne approached this game in mid 2018 with more than a touch of arrogance and, in the end, paid dearly for their hubris.

And how they went. Quote

ManDee 7,395 Posted April 14, 2019 Posted April 14, 2019 How often has a player played his first two games against the same side? Quote
At the break of Gawn 4,514 Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 Probably our most frustrating game of the season last year. However, the FD took some vital lessons from that game and it was the last time a team kicked a big score on us in 2018 before the PF (although Geelong scored 100pts exactly against us thanks to Tuohy's last kick).

Agree, but the problem is the same problems St Kilda exposed last year were exposed by Port, Geelong and Essendon this year. If we play St Kilda like we played those first three clubs, we'll lose. If we can take the form we showed against Sydney and defend the MCG like we defended the SCG, I think we will win. Quote
Jaded No More 68,976 Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 St Kilda are on a roll. I, as I’m sure many others, had them penciled in for bottom 4 this year. And while they haven’t beaten the best teams, they are full of confidence and have a good track record against us. We need to win these games to stay in touch with finals. But it won’t be easy. Quote

And it probably didn't help that we kicked the first 3 goals of the game. From that point the players probably saw it as a percentage booster. Quote
