So Saints are first on the ladder at 3-0 and Geelong are second last and could be last if they lose tomorrow. 
What world is this?

    Looks like those hard fought wins against umm, Hawthorn and Gold Coast have taken their toll on the Bombers. 

    Happy that the Saints get to celebrate being rubbish for 145 of their 150 years.

    Impressive by the Saints to be 3-0, their injury list is ridiculous.

    St Kilda are playing finals this year.

    They have a laugher of a game next week Vs Gc at Marvel to start 4-0, and they’re only going to get better with Steele, Billings, King, Membery and Coffield to come back.

    Now I’m not saying they’re a flag contender, but then again was anyone saying we were a flag contender after our round 3 2021 win over GWS?

    Feels slightly similar with a comparable buy in factor.

    Cripps was allowed 38 seconds to take that shot lol

    Mostly Carlton players we’re given 38 seconds to incorrectly dispose of the ball - “play on”.

    Christ Essendon’s ball use is putrid

    Essendon is putrid, regardless of ball use.

    Yes, his kicks inside 50 were superb.  Ross may have even cracked a smile for one or two of those

    Given Carlton could not make the 8 last year with a good serving of umpires help, the maggots have upped their level to guarantee it.

    Agree. They hadn’t kicked a goal in the second half up until the point where the most pathetic and game changing free you could imagine was paid, for dissent. It was demoralising for the Giants and stopped them cold. It was also one of many wrong calls, all the Blues way, paid by the umpires in that last quarter. Blatant frees to Riccardi straight in front and Hogan also a few metres out were ignored. Then soft ones paid to the Blues.

    I thought Garry Lyon was going to collapse, he was so angry at the dissent game changer call. It came after a blatant dropping the ball against McKay was ignored.

    Kingsley and the Giants must be seething.

    Pretty rich tbh of some of you to talk nonsense about the saints being rubbish forever. We were in the same position only 3 years ago and should have sympathy. 

    They're playing brilliantly with an enormous injury list. To the point where I'm not sure I would be bringing players back (other than Steele) once they are healthy...this collective buy in and balance is so hard to capture.

    Their only concern would be how early it is to be humming this well. But in the very least they should now be aiming for top 6.

    If we don't win it this year, I hope they do.

    Rankine or Thilthorpe could’ve easily won the medal over Dawson.

    And should have. Just goes to show midfielders win everything. Thilthorpe kicked 5 and basically won the game and Rankine was doing everything

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      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?
