Same.

And don’t forget the following day is Family Day. Depending on which long-range forecast you’re looking at the top temperature will be somewhere between 20 - 35. 🤷‍♀️ But whatever the weather conditions, we’re hoping for a really big turnout. ❤️💙

We should torch them

We should escape the Ross Lyon vice grip somewhere in the 3rd to last and win by 4-5 goals. If the Saints have improved and are playing at their peak. :cool:

Me too! I don’t think I’ve ever been this excited for a pre-season game, and your training reports are a big reason why 😃

Do you have inside word that it's on Fox/KAYO?

At the moment they've programmed GWS V WC from last year on from 4-6pm on the 24th of Feb, and the media have previously announced that only the second round of practice matches (March 2-4) will be televised.

I'm thinking or hoping it will be a live stream from the club if it's not on Fox. 

 

That's correct BBB the Tigers game is on Fox/Kayo and a real live stream would need to be done by the Club for this Saints game to be on TV.

Yeah, sounds like these week 1 praccy game will be on Kayo but not Foxtel.

The Foxtel tv guide has already scheduled live games for week 2 (ie - Melb V Rich) but nothing for next weekend.

Same formula as last pre season. Kayo graphics and their own commentators for the first week of praccy games.

Maybe the head of the ground-naming committee was a member of the N.A.D. (National Dyslexia Association). 😜

RSEA Safety is a Sponsor of St Kilda and must have paid naming rights for the old Moorabbin Oval.

It’s scheduled to be 35 at first bounce at this stage. Too hot IMO.

Maybe they could look at pushing the game back to 7pm given the venue has adequate lighting (or at least I think they do??)

Or delay it until Sunday in 23 degrees.

Ridiculous to play in 36 degrees with predicted thunderstorms.

This is Melbourne you are talking about - probably end up being cool and wet.

Am coming down from NSW so hoping for a cool change

Except that the next day is also hot, so more likely correct.

Does anyone know if they charge to watch????? Members I'd imagine wouldn't pay, but how about the average punter?


Would love to see Chandler take Spargo or ANBs spot to see if it work during the year

Good to see them featuring Max King who won't be playing for the first 4-5 rounds!

And no Membrey, so that's another player who always kicks a bag against us.

Will be almost a pointless exercise for us, and with the expected heat, why would you bother?  Still it will give the Aints fans plenty of excuses......

Was there today for my sons pre season training (u11s). The ground is very lush! Has 6-7 lights but it won’t be very bright. 
 

Doubt the game will go ahead as planned with that forecast.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
