Just wondering what the rules say

Can't imagine it's favourable to us

Yes dees specifically singled out.

    Even the weather hates us. How many hamstrings coming up?

    What are the odds of them calling it a draw?  😝

    None - after half time if the game is called off then the leading team wins.

    Just heard though that the delay needs to be > 1 hour.

    When are our guys due to fly home for next week's game?  Hope they got TMcD off on an earlier flight so he can start recovery.

    If this game had started when it should have it would be over. 8:10 on a Monday night was B/S

    Well it didn’t start at 8.10 in Perth

    Can anything else possibly go wrong for this great team of ours.Grrrrr..!!!!!

     

    [censored] this. If we don’t get given our four points we riot.


    I will go bezerk if this is nothing but a Melb win, they don't deserve 💩

    Not liking the idea of sending our guys back out cold, sounds like soft tissue territory.

    If this goes for 20 minutes they are saying on 7 that we get awarded the match.

    Happy Hammond just said if the game does not compete. We win   4 points.

    They said 60 minutes but the rule book says 30 minutes.

    I hope that the fitness crowd have something up their sleeve (or trouser leg) to keep them warmed up.

     

    We win because we were in front at half time. So if Kossie had missed we would have lost and were 32 point in front.

    Not a great situation. Eagles aren’t coming back to win this. Only thing that can happen from here is injuries.

    • 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?
