    I’d rather Geelong win. Best to keep Carlton out of the top 4 because I think they are a bigger September threat. we know the cats will chit the bed come finals.

    I would rather ensure we play our first final in Melbourne. Win and G for PF and then hopefully!

    Agree. Play finals at the G is the preference

    But I’d rather play Geelong there than Carlton

    Disgraceful non decision cost Saints a goal.

     

    Then again, Saints stinking it up big time here

    100% saints have been woeful but doesn’t justify two disgraceful decisions not paid. then they pay a no genuine attempt at the next ball up to sink the boots in

    Need to target Max King when out of contract. His talent being wasted there. 

    Would cost more than what we’d get for Jackson.

    I feel for St Kilda supporters. Make or break game and they look shot. They are still treading the same stale water they’ve treaded for most of the last 50 years. Footy is cruel for some supporters.

    Should've won a flag in the mid-late 2000s. They could go another 50 years and not get a better shot.

    I remember when Goddard took that absolute speccy in the 2010 GF and thought “they have done it” but no, they choked 

    We on the other hand are now chasing no. 14

    This game is so boring

    Could’ve been interesting right about now. Could’ve been a less than two goal margin.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
