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

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

    Let’s be honest.

    Saints are a mess, Lions winning plays into our hands as they’ll be pleased with themselves. The Lions style of play suits our defenders.

  • Quote

    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.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
