Saints have a very good defence in Wilkie, Dougall and Battle (albeit Curnow’s getting the better of the latter)

As Sydney showed last night, and when we’re missing Lever or May, it’s so important to have your three key pillars down back.

    I dont care if this is sexist but why do women take so long to choose items in shops. Im in the menswear section and its banb bang bang....all items picked and paid for.

     

    Meanwhile 50 mins later my wife has tried who knows how many items while I have to suffer sitting on a very small shoe seat listening to Kenny g playing through the extra large store speakers.

    Finally she's ready to go and Yes she doesn't even buy anything.

    No wonder men die before there spouse. 

    They want to.

    Because women are socialised differently. They usually get judged on outward presentation, whereas if you dress like a slob, not much happens.

    Men have 4 choices to make in a clothes store. Women have hundreds of choices.

    St Kilda will play finals and give top 4 a nudge. They are very fit and well drilled.

    I’d go as far to say they’re a premiership contender.

    I see a fair bit of Melbourne 2021 about them. Fit, disciplined, motivated, able to carry out the game plan for 4 quarters and extremely hard to score against with their defensive mindset.

    Could be their year in their 150th, albeit I expect to see Geelong and Collingwood in the GF.

    Yes, those were the great days for our defence. Saint Kilda are doing what we did for all of 2021 and half of 2022 – absolutely strangling the opposition until they just bomb it long in despair. I don’t know why it’s not working for us now.

    It's April, lets see them keep this up all season.

    And not to forget, this is their 57th year since they won their last premiership

    I think 6 games is a large enough sample to make a reasonable call. Their defensive structure and game plan holds up. Their fixture is kind playing Lions, Suns, Hawks, North, Tiges and Carlton twice. I'm pretty confident they'll play finals.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
