Could genuinely see us winning tomorrow but then losing next week. The heat on Carlton will be extreme.

I can see us losing both.....and then beating Collingwood and Geelong.

Demonland will be box office for a month.

 

But seriously, there's absolutely no way we are losing to Carlton.

    John Longmire in his presser complaining about having a 13 day break and it not being a genuine bye break.

    He’s obviously unaware of our 10 day break between round 13, bye and round. 15.

    Blakey's composure to bounce the ball while going full tilt, speaks volumes. Buddy doing the team thing squaring the ball up was also good to see. Obviously invested in team over self.

    Cripps rolled ankle but don’t get excited for next week. Many players come back on in the same game with a rolled ankle.

    He actually got it caught under another player.

    It wasn't a simple roll.

    Could be a Lisfranc???

    Just an oddity but he runs exactly like his old man did.

    Poor coaching by Voss tonight.

    Let Longmire play the game on his terms.

    Heeney played Cripps out of the game.

    Would have been smart to move Cripps forward.

    He's referred to as a lizard. Not sure about that .... there's a case for him being described as a rikali, or an otter.

    Glad I’m not the only who’s more than a little s*** scared about losing to this mob next week.

    That would have been big if Cripps kicked that goal on halftime 

    Yeah but how far did he run before he kicked the ball.

    Serves them right for gifting Carlton friday nights for the last 2yrs.

    If we lose to the Blues next no matter the pressure they are under we might as  well start pre season now.

    They are in all sorts of mess. They are lacking confidence and their game plan is shot. Injuries are piling up - it’s an easy kill.

    Sort of like Jayden Hunt (but and with apologies to JH), better decision making. I also like his use of hips to slip tackles,

    What happened to all the DL experts who predicted Carlton would finish top 4?  Doesnt look so fab for you now.  Even the umpires, QC's  and tribunal appeals cant save them. Carltons top 8 players are a massive dumpster fire burning millions for most of this decade.  Why should they care about finals? They dont know -dont care.  Media will turn on them soon. Voss will probably hang on to his 3 year mega contract which expires end 2024 season.  Who else would want to coach them. ? Norf have more heart than that rabble.

    Beautiful, pizz them off the week leading up to our game. 
    Was hoping to get a big crowd next Friday night, by the sound of it might just be Melbourne supporters there.

    He did look in a lot of pain and I thought he said to the phsysio/doctor who was walking with him, he was no good.

    He could miss next week and it looks like Hewitt, Newman, Kennedy and Hollands could all miss.

    • 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?
