    Yep sure does so we win the midfield battle and should score enough to win. Feeling good about this one and one of only 14% that have picked the Dees

    Should also add that Bytel who has been dropped played alright last week and King/Jones will be rusty in first real game back.

    We play a fast StKilda side. Jones and Jetta.

    Jetta will be fine, Jones always worries me but hey no one’s knocking the door down to replace him

    Maybe RIT but I think that our emergencies are starting to provide some excellent options should any one fail to fire in their role.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Paul Hunter....  never heard of the St kilda ruckman before (doesn't mean hes no good of course).   Max was well down on his best last week and would be looking to dominate this one.

    Add Viney to those two.

    I will assume from that comment you think Viney is a tad slow. Maybe watch him a bit

    If the the injury sub comes from emergencies, who will it be?

    Probably depends who gets injured..?? 

    On another note, I can see our backline keeping St Kilda goalless for the entire game.

    They have to nominate the injury sub before the game. 

    An earlier poster stated, before the emergencies were even named, that it would be Baker.

    Congrats to Steven May on 150 games.

    Hope you play a blinder like a repeat of the game in Alice last year and drag us over the line.

    FYI - I’m the loud bastard on level 3 outer wing conveying the same message

    Selection pretty much as expected. It would have been interesting to see who would have been dropped if Harmes was not injured.

    Good luck to May on his 150th milestone, Hope he has 150 more high class games for the Dees.

    Must admit, that Saints team hardly strikes fear on paper in terms of names. But as usual, they have a lot of run and speed.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      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.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      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?
