Poor footy. No intensity at all. For round 1 it is a bit strange. Saints have too many players missing. Brad Hill looks like a disgrace out there.

    St Kilda's missing Ryder, Billings, Geary, Jones, Hannebery (but lol does he ever play?) and Clark.

    Collingwood is at full strength I believe.

    Makes a difference, but still, St Kilda don't look very good at all.

    Won't have a coach soon enough if this garbage continues.  Ratten would be odds on for first coach to be sacked this year.

    No resistance at all from the Aints.  Still, will over pump the Magpies.

    Great fixturing for Friday night round 1, Gillon.

    32 inside fifties to the pies. 

    21 scoring shots

    wow. 


    What an amazing turn around.

     

    Cmon Saints, do it for Warnies family (and for all others, the joy it will give us seeing the Pies supporters get their hearts ripped out!)

    I said earlier the Saints have zero small fwds and it holds. Not having a dig but I hope Higgins has been finishing his VCE/getting an education/setting himself up post footy as it’s coming fast.

    How did Warnies' be daughter allowed to barrack for the pies?

    Gee tuned out of the 3rd quarter because I thought it was game over. Checked the scores and will be watching the 4th. Come one saints. 


    How's the messiah Daicos going?

    This is turning into a really good battle of the cellar dwellers. 

    Happy for Jack Hayes. But not nearly as happy as his mates in the crowd. 😁  Not sure that’s even possible.

    I don't know which is more impressive. His game or the bowl cut / mullet combo he's sporting

    I’m just here for the Mason Cox fashion show. 
    Loving the matching knee high socks and elbow bands. Chanel is turning in her grave.

    Looks very green

    How did Higgins miss that. King will hopefully find his kicking boots in the final term. Turn the behinds into more goals.

    2 Flags against interstate Clubs, with an incredible run of Home games at The MCG and 1 against the ageing Handbags. 
    3 Flags, good luck to them, they are in the cabinet, but I don’t consider it a great Dynasty

    How was Hawthorn any better then Richmond if you say that Richmond won theirs against interstate teams?

    Hawthorn won all their premierships against interstate teams.

    Such a meat and potatoes game this. Close, but meh.

    He’s a “cult hero” apparently 🙄

    Been around for five minutes and already he’s a cult hero. At this rate he’ll be “a legend” before the end of this match.

    Hawthorn won theirs while the rest of the comp was hobbled by the compromised draft with the introduction of both GWS and GC IMO.
    Meanwhile they cherry picked clubs filling their needs with player looking for "success". 
    Found themselves in the right place at the right time.
    Similar story Geelong.
    There's a reason those 2 were on top so long.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
