Our season is [censored]. 

Let’s [censored] up others’ chances.

If we do the Dogs that will probably end them for the season

Take joy in the suffering of others

Go Dees!!!

    All these people saying the Dogs have no forwards have t obviously been paying attention to Naughton. The young guy is a gun. 

    He's certainly talented and capable of tearing us apart, but consistency is not his thing.

    He's kicked 22 goals but 9 of those have been in two games (5 when he ripped Richmond to shreds, 4 last week vs Geelong) meaning 13 in the other 12 games.

    He'd only kicked 4 goals in the previous 6 games before last week.

    We have to back May in to be able to stop him.

    Their forward line is hopeless, and our backline is stacked. Can’t see them scoring enough. We win this 

    They still have the Bont if we can't lock him out sufficiently.

    We do play this ground better than most other grounds now but i fear the injury gods have crueled us too many times too often now to think we won't be effected in matches like today.

    Injuries and last week's 2nd best game for the year aside, our forward set up / personel is still as poor as it gets and we are still very skilled giving the opp way too many easy turnovers.  The better teams will cruel us on those and the mediocre ones like the dogs will probably do enough to beat us on the day.

    Never been able to put more than one win together other than the Hawks/GC rounds and we know how bad the GC are going.  Confidence and belief can't be great within the four walls right now.

    We do have Clarry though.  Can win a game off his own boot if he plays clean and smart like he did last week so we just might sneak in another cheeky victory if everyone turns up and plays four quarters.

    Great mark Jayden. Really nicely brought down. Very clever. 


    Hunt must have a decent conversion % on set shots vs most of his team mates up forward

    Soft hands Harmes he was 3 feet away lol.  How was that NOT holding the ball on the flank there.  Clearly dragged it in and made NO attempt

    Who would have thought Hunt would lead our goal kicking for the year


    No 6 for the Dogs has one ugly haircut. He mustn’t have any friends.

    Lewis is soooo slow. I hate him in the midfield.

    • 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?
