Saints kicked/pressured themselves out of that one, surprised they stayed in it for so long but the Pies are in about to fall off the cliff badly with Pendls and Sidebottom on the cusp.

    Biggest arm chop ever and Razor was dead set right in front of it. 
     

    Won’t be talked about how that changed the result 2 goal swing, game done.

     100% should have been a 5 point game with 2 minutes left. Instead I jump on demonland and lose all interest in a heartbeat.

    All I saw tonight was two bottom 6 clubs go at it. Skills and clangers were absolutely horrific.

    Dean Kent may have played his last game. That was an absolute shocker.

    He was horrendous. St Kilda’s lack of skills was shocking. Truly I cannot understand it from a relatively mature list.

    Maybe they made allowances for his disability Mono!

    I didn't know Cox had mono.  but I guess mono lives in cox

     

    Glad we missed out on Brad Hill when we had the chance. Coughed it up nearly every time he had the ball for the Saints in that final quarter. 

    Jack Higgins had an absolute mare.


    Man, I cannot wait until Queens Birthday

    The reason the Saints have only won one premiership in 125 odd years is because they load up on b graders . . . decade in, decade out.

    Wish we had Razor in our game.

    Except that long range goal he kicked in Perth v Weagles (R 22?) to get us into the finals in 2018. 
    That was pretty good. 
    But yes, otherwise meh.

    Are my eyes deceiving me or is that Duxy with a Saints scarf on....

    Max King still can't kick. You don't pay 900K for guys that consistently kick more points than goals.


    Don’t think either of these sides  will make the 8.

    Both teams very average...

    I think Ratten is in trouble if they keep dishing up this rubbish and I can't see how they won't with that list.

    They needed to do a proper rebuild but got way ahead of themselves when bringing in the likes of Hill.

    Did we ever get the right Freo wingman.

    Expect a Grant Thomas challenge and the s  to hit the fan at some stage of the season.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
