Gotta feel for Port after the year they've had. 

Richmond in 2017 was good I guess but FMD hearing Cotchin talk about how he and his wife think the Tigers group is so special is getting really [censored] tiring.

    Gee I loathe Richmond.  All the sooking and free kicks and the dirty play.  I guess they have earned the right to be smug, but they are a detestable bunch.

    port might have done better if they played the match in dry brissy

    home ground turned into a disadvantage?

    What a hideous result 

    Richmond no injuries....

    Hopefully they're gassed after that slog. Cotchin should be fresh as he did bugger all.

    Maybe they could suspend Reiwoldt for staging a head knock late in the 3rd? One can only dream.

    Here's hoping the Lions get an easy run tomorrow.

    Compare Richmond list quality and ours and it is embarrassing. Also embarrassing how in Cairns when we played in a monsoon we continually tried to handball the ball and kick backwards, tonight both teams had the right idea,  move the ball forward at all costs

    The gesticulating by every player within 50m of the ball appealing deliberate out of bounds is what gets me

    What a choke by Port. Were good in the first half but no one stood up in the second, aside from Ebert with that amazing spoil.

    Only 3 players different for tigers from last years grand final. Always seem to come together at the right time. 

    Only 1 apparently? Balta

    Must have been watching a different game to me. A winning score with 46 points doesn’t exactly make them unbeatable. 

    You get a consistent team on the park, and then your best team at the right time of year, and you make sure during the regular season you win 3 of the 5 games you play every year that could go either way. We aren’t that far off it, we just need to do it more consistently.

    Worst possible result tonight. Richmond are just a horribly unlikeable group of tossers, lead by that whinging coach who personally attacks people.

    I’ll be supporting whoever they are playing against next weekend.

    What’s more frustrating is my bro didn’t mention rich prior to 2017 & never buys memberships & yet hadn’t stopped talking & bought premiership celebration packs saying it’s the same as buying memberships ..

    Richmond remind me of Brisbane during their threepete - they always seemed to get more than their fair share of 50/50 balls. Maybe just a higher proportion of footy iq in the team or sheer [censored], who knows.

    Wouldnt mind that Bolton kid in our team.

    • 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?
