As much as Id like to see West Coast lose as they are in the finals every farkin season Id love to see the Sainrts get smashed.  They fluked a finals spot in last years clown covid hub circus.

    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'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.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
