Is it just me or are St Kilda the most middle of the road team in the comp. I think they will win a good number of games but are miles away from winning a premiership.

A bit premature I think. I agree that they're not likely to make the 8 but I thought that before all the COVID cases. I think their performances have been admirable so far all things considered. This was the borttom 5 and their percentages after 2 rounds last year and 3 of these sides made the 8, so maybe everyone shouldn't be writing anyone off just yet (neither should they be declaring Carlton a premiership chance).

 

BL 2 0 84.5
CA 2 0 78.2
GW 2 0 77.5
ES 2 0 73.9
NM 2 0 48.4

 

Hi SD. I only wrote it as a play on WC and toilet. I agree with you that they're not totally out of the finals picture but losing two of their most winnable games first up will make it very difficult.

Sure. If clubs keep paying you 6 figures and you can get away with doing the bare minimum, why wouldn’t you. 
Just a shame because he could have been anything, but I had a feeling that when he left Melbourne that was the end of his career. I thought he’d plod along and he has. 

Which is why blokes like Phillipoussis and Kyrios couldn't be bothered.
Get paid millions for coasting on natural talent.
Not every-one gives a sheet about being #1.

This game is poor quality fare

Max King begs to differ! 😆

There's a lot of poor teams, but it is only early days. A few will sort themselves out.

Sure, sounds easy. Why doesn’t everyone just become like him. 

I am just like King. Injured and not playing AFL footy.

(unless you mean the OTHER King ...)

You never like to see good players get injured. Then you see it's Essendon and are forced to re-evaluate your whole life.

Max King looks like the weird keyboard player Ron Mael from the band Sparks.

Interesting watching Saints v Freo. Some horrible skills and link-ups followed by breath taking contested marks, tackles and goal kicking. The defensive spread of both midfields is highly questionable at times.

I really like Ratten as a coach, but even he has been unable to push through the glass ceiling of "meh, beige, pedestrian" that haunts this team from the Alan Richardson era. If Paddy Rider and Zak Jones can get back, perhaps something else can emerge.

Freo surely are better than this. Or am I seeing something that isn't there?

St kilda missing 3-4 good players. Ryder, Zac Jones, Billings, Hannebery 

As I’ve stated before they should make finals. King is the difference, could kick 70

Synth pop went out of style so I'm glad he was able to find another vocation

Freo on their home ground have no excuses. No Fyfe no Freo?

Him and his brother Russell are both in their late 70's and still touring Mazer. Edgar Wright (Sean of the Dead) did a big doco on them last year . 

 

Getting a little concerned about a certain bloke who so far, after a couple of years rest has gone close to putting two blokes in hospital in two games. Which brings me to my next observation of how many players seem to being dazed or damaged after heavy tackles. Anyone else notice?

And that is why the Saints are where they are, ordinary list management.

I'm taking comfort in the thought that St Kilda won't play this well again for the rest of the season.

Yeah, but how many goals? 35?

Based on that Max should be able to keep playing until he's 60.

Godfather offer from Geelong?

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
