Alot on the line in this game.

Win this and I will be reasonably happy for a while.

While a loss will make me disproportionately upset for longer.

    I love the Narrm concept and that we led the league with this… but we have a [censored] record with that as our name. Have Narrm won a game yet? MFCSS rising … this is big game.

    I doubt other clubs care less about our name change. Collingwood will likely hit us on KB . They usually do .

    Naarm wont change anything.

     

     

     

    We’ve responded well after each loss this season. Keen to see the midfield dynamic without Oliver over the next couple of weeks.

    A great start time for a game, weather should be fine and hoping a lot of us turn up to support the boys.

    With Collingwood and Geelong around the corner, this is an absolute non negotiable must win game of footy.

    I'm more confident against Geelong than Freo tbh.

    Will be interested to see how Langdon goes today without Hunter.

    I have a feeling that Viney will have a huge, match winning game today. Without Oliver it just seems set up for the unleashing of our ballistic missile!!

    Not near as confident about this one as I was 3 weeks ago. Freo haven’t beaten anyone of note (Geelong had no midfield) but they’re confidence is up, and they are playing better. They’re moving the ball quicker and their forwards have found some form.

    Clarry a massive out but Walters is an important player for them as well.

    The forecast is a clear, sunny 15 degrees. Perfect for footy. It’s been a while since we had a Saturday afternoon game at the G so I’m really looking forward to this one.

    We won’t have it all our own way, but I reckon Fritta will do the business for us.

    Dees by 20 points

    He might go better without him and thrive on the responsibility.

    He’s been less influential since Hunter’s joined us. His possessions have gone down from 22 to 19 a game and he’s on track for just a 4 goal season, down from 13 in both 2021 and 2022.

    The last 3 weeks he’s average just 16 touches and laid only 1 tackle.

    Circumstances force me to take a circuitous route to the G today and, consequently, I shall be leaving one of The Manor's fleet at Wallan Railway Station. No doubt it will be stolen and I shall have to seek an alternative means of transportation in the pm.

    However, my mood will not be dampened as I will have witnessed a comprehensive Dees victory.

    Even with Clarrie MIA, I have no concerns about our ability to cover Freo in all respects. 

    We have flag aspirations. We must finish top 4 or , better still, top 2.

    The second half of the season is near and dropping games to sides below you on the ladder simply cannot be allowed.

    Haven't checked the stats yet, but I'd wager we have a better KB  record than QB.

    We've got today. I keep backing Kozzie for a big day out. It's going to be today. Us by 41.

    … and a bright and happy good morning you too, you big ol’ golden ray of sunshine, you!!! 😘

    We’ll have a a comfortable win today and Demonland won’t go into Chernobyl-level melts. But should we in fact lose, I’ll see y’all around about the middle of next week when everyone’s had a chance to calm the [censored] down. But not on Thursday since the aftershocks will be felt again once selection is announced. 😁

    GO THE MIGHTY DEES!!!

    Exactly. Some DL posters think a loss to Freo ends our season, but fail to take into account that WE ARE CAPABLE OF UPSET WINS AWAY or as UNDERDOGS too.

    Wonder whether he’ll stay on the one side of the ground all day like he was doing until this year?

    I have a wager with a friend that at least once today May will kick in to the right. I am on No

    He had a great game against Freo in Rd 1 2021 at the G. Kicked a lovely banana goal iirc. Hoping he can get back to that kind of form because he's been well down this year.

    Should win today.

    I would like to see McDonald really have a presence today. I just remember Brown and Weideman were non existent last time we played them at the G. I'm going to back him in for a big one today.

    Petracca and Viney to really stand up and show that no Oliver, no worries.

    Max had an absolute stinker. Rarely does this two weeks in a row.

    Kozzie to get back into form starting today.

    Won't be watching the footy as I'll be kicking the dew off at 2pm so hoping for some good news once I open my phone again at 4:45pm.

    • 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?
