Max King is weird. Gives off Lloyd or even Jono Brown vibes some weeks. Then other weeks like tonight he gives off Jack Watts vibes.

Watts was a good kick for goal.

Not sure not being able to kick a goal from 20 metres is necessarily Ratten's fault!

 

True but missing finals from 8-3 probably is

Yep. And Mathieson for good measure.

Yeah, no easy ones out the back that he seems to love.

I am feeling confident about next week's game. If the Saints can dominate the Lions like today how more can the Dees do it!

We got Fritta and Brown that are much better kicks than King

Unless St Kilda have a few guns coming through their reserves It’s hard to see them getting close to a premiership with this group, their just so middle of the road it’s not funny.

Whilst Brisbane winning is not a great result, if we beat Brisbane next week we’ll still finish higher than them as they’re percentage is a bit below us. 

We’d have to lose by around the 7 goal mark against Carlton to be behind Brisbane on percentage.

Not necessarily.

We could still end up at the SCG if Swans gain a couple of %.

What is our record at the MCG? lost something like 4 out of the last 5?

Interstate? Won 11 or 12 in a row.

BT said they are playing for a home final against us. That’s unlikely. They would need Coll to beat Sydney this Sunday and Carl to best Coll in the last round. It’s the only way. 

We win both and unless Coll and StK capitulate against Sydney we will have a home QF.

Saints supporters won't like me saying this but they are going to have to considered a complete rebuild of their list.  

The way they have put it together is completely lopsided in favour of mature recruits not through the draft, this way has never worked previously.

A complete waste of 5 years this will be, all this and their ever expanding debt, a club stuck in the wilderness.

I'm not even talking about that..

If you and the 3 others who liked it would have any small idea you would know I'm talking about his coaching career thus far at St Kilda.  Max King has nothing to do with this.

As a collective, his record at St Kilda has been poor. Their recruitment has been a shambles and they are simply no where near challenging anytime soon. Their depth is made up of recycled players who are handy in playing a role against bottom 4 teams but steuggle against the rest.

There's going to be a significant drop next year and I'll be surprised if Ratten last the journey.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
