West Coast still have some very good players on paper, and  I know it’s very early on but they look exactly like last year and don’t give a [censored] about their performances. 

The tank is on for Harley Reid already.

    Makes you wonder how they're managing their salary cap. The stars of the Eagles must be coming towards the end of their mega contracts

    I follow Norf with my Mate, who's mad Norf. So know a bit about them. As I have previously remarked, they are no where near a bad as some pundits think. There's eight players that get a game at Melbourne. West Choke, EssenDrugs, Horethorn, St. Kilda would be lucky to have eight between them.

    You’d be fuming being a West Coast supporter. One thing to be awful. Another to just not care.

    Tipped Weagles over North, in honour of my friend who just moved to Perth and matched with one of the players on a dating app lol

    Well, this aged well 🤣  hopefully my friend's dating life is more successful than my tipping!

    Just wondering why Luke Jackson didn't want to go to W/C. Must be a reason.

    Obviously Gill’s Work Experience kid made the decision on the umpire’s clash strip. Norf seem to have 4 extra players in blue tops, just without the white stripes. Small point, maybe. But in the split second world of AFL, this peripheral vision issue could really be significant. Still haunted by Clint Bartram’s brilliant offload to a maggot all those years ago.

    why do they keep doing it?

    it's not as if they don't have alternate strips. 

    it's not that fn hard....amateur stuff

    North have lost their composure. aimless bombing into F50 and over handballing.

    Gill hasnt finished his long apprenticeship  yet. I feel sorry for any  junior clerk who is tutoured by that corporate media clown.

    North got themselves to the infamous danger zone ... 26 points up... and didn't go on.

    We all know how this ends

    seems they're not going to follow the MFC of 2022

    I can pick up any of 6 Melb stations live on Match Centre here in Bangkok.

    Youre right though their 'live' clocks are useless for some games.

    I wish the commentators would shut up and stop reading commercials after goals and throw ins. FFS

    Quite enjoyable this match. Hunt with a barrel after the siren to win it for the Eagles.

    • 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?
