    Petty has had 3 shockers this Qrt

    Should've punched there

    Lucky touched

    He was in front and had position. Misjudged. Langdon was at fault and he knew it. He should have contested. 

    Tell me again how Harry Petty isn’t one of our most important. Absolute superstar.

    Saints supporters around me booing. It was touched you bellends.

    Anyway, Saints will go on their run and kick a few goals in a row. But they're playing like they're at Marvel. Long and direct to King. We are gobbling it up.

    We are tripling King in the air and have Membry covered. Our mids are applying pressure. I can’t see them piling on goals. We are a bad match up for them. They aren’t used to losing the ruck battle so we have them on the back foot from the bounce.


    Tommy Mac looks lively and his marking is back. Too bad he is a terrible/overly adventurous field kick. 

    Nice start.

    Even when they were getting early 50 entries, I wasn’t particularly stressed as I knew their ball movement indicated we were playing the game on our terms.

    Sensational first quarter by the Wizard of Koz. Keep it going young fella!

    Great first qu

    kozzie on fire and Gus had a great quarter too

     

    Great first quarter ! Our core mids Trac Oliver and Viney not really in the game yet. Hopefully they get involved more in the link up an assert full ground dominance.

    Defensive setup is stifling the Saints ball movement, expect a change up.


     

     


    Great first qtr but he team.  Looking good for their first day game. Great first qtr but he team.  Looking good for their first day game. 

    They have been lucky Kozzie is just getting his eye in after the week off. 

     

    That's premiership footy folks!!

    There are aspects / nuances of the game that Plugga brings there that you can't buy!!

    It's really psychological as well. Up in their 'grill'

    • 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?
