Post game . . . what they are saying about us.

Trak

  • There was people during the week defending the decision to take paddy over petracca. Don't tell me it doesn't happen I've seen it more times than I can count.
  • Petracca believes in himself more than any player I've seen in a long time, and that belief that he is can be great and can be the difference between winning and losing makes up for rather significant deficiencies in his skillset.
  • Petracca’s final goal turned like Warnie’s ball to Mike Gatting.
  • May and Pettraca won them the game.
  • Petracca was just an average player up until this year, don't think many saw him exploding into the player he is this season.
    • Saints got it wrong and everyone knew he was going to be the better footballer but they drafted the player they thought would be our full forward for 15 years.
  • As a caterey member of the western bulldogs who is dating a saints supporter. I promised her I would ask her why the hell our CEO Ameet Baines decided on drafting McCartin > Petracca. Can’t believe it.
    • They weren't sure who to take because of our key forward situation and were then spooked by the Tom Boyd deal. Looks horrible in hindsight but still stand by it being the right call for St Kilda at the time.

Everything else

  • Melbourne played a very poor man's version of the geelong keepings off/block the corridor style.
  • I hate losing to Melbourne more than any team. And that loss last night was more than losing to that borderline rabble but confirmation that we haven't improved and continue to crumble as soon as the prospect of us taking that step forwards arrises.
  • If melbourne do a typically Melbourne and get ahead of themselves then thats great for us.
  • Dees while hard at it, were not quality tonight.
  • The majority of our goals were from Melbourne mistakes not our own ball movement.
  • I can't believe we lost to f*n melbourne. Disaster.
  • Considering how sh*t we played, it’s funny we were still the better team and lost.
  • Thank god we’re not Melbourne supporters and have to watch that sh*t every week.
  • May is 143 game 28 year old who should be in the prime of his career age wise so you would expect him to win that battle every day of the week.
  • Melbourne set themselves for this game. If they hadn't of got Gawn right physically we scrape home I think.
  • A very ordinary player in Mitch Brown slotting one from 50 on a tight angle.
  • Melbourne deserve some credit for clogging the game up and not allowing us to run and gun.
  • Now the boys have to get on the same flight as melb let that fu** that.
    • Good hope they sing their song all the way back. Hope Oliver kicks the backs of their seats the whole way and Max Gawn puts his seat back on their legs.
  • We've got a bloke named Carlisle. He's kicked a few goals in his time. He is bigger than May, perhaps he could have stood his ground and taken a bit of the focus off King?
  • Melbourne. Trash team dragging us down to their level.
  • We made May look like Rance.
  • Our list is still well below even Melbourne and is a patchwork of crap coving serious structural issues.
  • May with 22 disposals and 9 marks. Gave us an absolute bath.
  • King deserves a rest. It's his first year at AFL level, so he deserves some slack, but he needs a rest. He's been poor for a few weeks, poor decision making and poor marking. He'll get better, but we don't need to try and burn him out like when Melbourne ruined Jack Watts.
  • Gawn not called once for tackling the Saints ruckman all night, thought 2 arms around was a big indicator.
  • King will have nightmares about May. We needed to do something about that match up a lot earlier, pretty much lost us the game.
  • Well done to Melbourne, totally burnt us on the rebound and had our number.
  • Melbourne are sh*t Kents good luck to them.
  • Melbourne have no game plan and beat us.

King will be a star. We've had to wait 5 years for Weideman to start hitting his straps.

To be fair Hogan and Tmac were on fire for his first 3 years.

Not all St Kilda fans are wankers. Here’s a thoughtful piece from Footy Almanac 

Round 14 – Melbourne vs St Kilda: Confessing getting emotional at the last minute

"The Saints improved much in 2020. Although we won’t play finals, my boys have been doing a lot this year."

Talk about gloom and doom. They currently sit in 7th place with a decent percentage and if they win 2 out of their remaining 3 games, they should just make it. This is the St Kilda equivalent of MFCSS.

They play WC and GWS though. They are a 50-50 chance

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
