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.

    Umpire killed the game. Surprise surprise. 

    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.

    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.

    The filth was the only team that the Demons didn't beat last season.

    Wish we had Razor in our game.

    Forgettable career i would have thought.

    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.

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
