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.

    It's funny how many teams look better when they move it quicker at the moment.

    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.

    • 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.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
