The Aints know what is on the line. They won’t lose with Ratts in charge

Why should we get 3 chances??

    A gift for St Kilda with half the Eagles side out.

    I was going to say why cant we ever have this luck, but we would lose this game anyway.

    No excuses or whinging. We’re our own worst enemy. We’ve had a dream run with injury this year, nearly the least games lost to injury of any club. Credit to the fitness staff.

    We’ve also had some very favorable runs with the umpires in matches this year too.

    Just two weeks ago we lost to 2nd last Sydney who were missing Buddy, Rampe, Heeney, Mills off the top of my head.

    We have a history of losing to extremely weak opposition. I’ll never forget when we lost to an Essendon replacement team.

    Looking at the Saints, we sure dont look like we deserve to be there.   Gonna need to be a revolution in our game style for us to even make it, let alone trouble anyone.

    Saints suck, they will fall into the 8 and do nothing.

    And we double suck in comparison, but I don’t disagree.....

    What this shows is that us and the Saints are probably actually in a very similar position (reflected by us both fighting out for the bottom 8th spots and our tight contest the other week). We both have it in from of us as opportunities to make the finals. 

    Basically neither team really deserves it, both should be making up the numbers in the finals no matter who gets through.

    this

    the top 5 look like premiership contenders, but both the bears and meth coke are currently beset by serious injury (gov did him hammy for the latter tonight), while all the teams 6-13 are pretenders, freo and sydney are rebuilding and capable but not consistent, while the bottom three of crows, kangas, and hawks are pretty ordinary

    too many teams, too many ordinary footballers

    It is so frustrating watching a hack side like St Kilda and knowing they sit sixth.

    Sixth!

    A competition full of plodder sides and we still can’t make the 8. Shameful stuff.

    I thought Ryan had hit his ceiling in 2018 - he just keeps getting better and better.  Great player.

    Did anyone know that Duggan is from Bacchus Marsh and was coached by Dougie Hawkins???

    Who would have guessed.

    I suspect partly talent but mostly well directed, skilled and drilled in a very basic but effective game style SW.

    Did you hear the pre-game interview with Rattan?  His assessment of Meth's strengths and weaknesses as well as the approach to the changing conditions etc.  No wonder they are doing very well this season.  Oozs confidence but also hints of a guy who assesses & analyses in depth and it plays out on the field.

    I'm not saying they are world beaters but they're in very good hands.

    And how smart was that little double tap kick off the ground by Butler a little while ago for the goal off the ground!  Our blokes would be either attempting to pick it up in slippery conditions or jump on it and probably get pinged for HTB.  Outside of natural talent that shines through on occasions, we are a terribly coached/drilled/skilled team in general.  Awful to watch.

    Even the coaching genius of Ratten couldn’t get the Saints over the line ?

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
