Cracked the code and ended up as a bunny at a shibari event. Will be tied up until kick-off with no other choice. Recommended remedy. 

Jesus. I don't think I want to know what this means.

    Kozzie and Dogga are the personalities that would step up and relish a finals atmosphere.

    And Oliver to pick up from last week.

    For sure.

    I haven't mentioned another under the radar player, Bowey. Finals after, what, 4-5 games. What a story, reliability, efficiency, selfless, supportive. Keep that cool head, give us an out and hit up those mids. Would love him to get a goal. 

    Go Dees!

    To the lucky demon fans living in SA who can go tonight, you are representing every fellow demon fan who cannot be there tonight. Just make more noise than the lion fans & when the boys run out tonight let them know the support is there. Have fun & lets hope we all see a victory

    I have to admit that this game is more nerve-racking than the elimination final against Geelong in 2018. Before the elimination final against Geelong I didn't feel particularly nervous about what would happen because I was satisfied that we were able to make the finals in the first place. But today I feel extremely nervous because we finished on top of the ladder and my expectations are really high.

    I'm not nervous yet. Maybe because we haven't been able to go to the games I feel a bit disconnected if that makes sense.

    I think I'm more excited because for once we are the team to best & haven't just fallen into finals action. Maybe this will be our best chance yet.

    Brisbane have bought in 2 very good ins but at least Hipwood isn't there. We just have to get off to a good start & not let them jump us.

    With Harris Andrews, normally has a reasonable height advantage against most forwards, hopefully won't get that tonight with BB. Hope he can at least halve most contests.

    If the rain comes as predicted at half time, I hope we are well up. Harder to score in the wet.

    Will suit us. Lions are a fast high scoring team.

    Rain and we will grind them down with our surge footy.

    I hope so. He has become a sidekick to Oliver over the past 12 weeks. Time to just reassert your dominance my man.

    I don't think there's any egos left in our side. Sometimes I wish Trac and sometimes Kozzy would be more selfish because they are such rare talents but they are playing a selfless game all of them, and that's obviously what it takes to finish on top...

     

    Hopefully it's enough to go all the way?

    I don’t live far from Adelaide Oval and it’s getting very dark outside, The rain looks to be coming soon.

    • 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?
