    St Kilda reek of Melbourne 2019.

    Pre season injuries, lack of hunger, bath water etc...

    Probably preseason injuries... 

    Not a crack at you @Bring-Back-Powell, and jeeze I hate 'bathwater' as a catch-all phrase for, getting a head of yourself.

    No team... ever drinks their own bathwater... you don't think all coaches drill in to the players that they haven't achieved anything until they've won a premiership... (or the players don't understand this through all their coaching and know it innately?)

    Their gameplan has been torn to shreds... and they're quite a limited team...as evidenced by losing to us last year...

    I think we missed an opportunity to really touch up the saints.

    I think it was us, who killed them

    I'd prefer them to have a long slow painful death.

    While i like what the 'stand' rule has brought to the game between the arcs, the AFL really needs to fix it's application to the set shots for goal.

    There is sometimes strict interpretation and at other times none in terms of stepping off the line of the mark while taking a shot.

    Some players are getting called immediately taking a step or two as they arc out of their line, while others appear invisible to the umpire and are alowed to arc out and waltz towards the side of the man standing the mark without any adjudication.  With the latter (non-governance) gaining an extra 5 meters or more, sometimes the difference between a goal and falling a little short.

    A fundamental but obvious umpiring flaw that needs to be addressed and quickly.  Could be the difference in a tight game.

    @Rusty Nails, dont you get it mate ? - ambiguity is great for the game. It's great for debate, it frustrates people endlessly.

    Silence = apathy = death.

    Saints with a good fight back.

    So apparently no Hurn = no Eagles. They’ve been a disaster down back.

    33 points up and Eagles decided to go to Tullamarine. Haven’t seen them stop like this in a while.

    West Coast are just down hill skiers. Apply the pressure and they wilt

    Great response from the Saints after the Essendon horror show

    OK.   What the hell was in the saints bath water then?

    A win like this could reinvigorate their season. Very disappointing.

    Applying some Demonland logic here but if we beat the saints easily, the saints then beat West Coast doesn’t that mean….......we’ve gone past West Coast ?

    Better to have both on 2-2. Win tomorrow and we will be 2 games clear of both.

    • 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.

      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?
