If we had have kicked straight, we would’ve won that game by 40 points.

    Viney was amazing… Tomlinson a very close second best on ground IMO

    Look it’s nice to get the win but if we play like that against Collingwood on Kings Birthday they’ll kill us.

    Should've been a 10 goal win. I'll take that. Never looked like losing after half time.

    Joel Smith has changed this forward line.

    One shocking kick at goal but otherwise he added a much needed spark, if only some people (entire MFC coaching department) could have seen this earlier.

    Viney lives for the big stage, Salem was back to his Grand Final best.

    Yep, that felt like a smashing. Awesome performance, goalkicking aside.

    Not sure who it was but prior to Roo’s goal, should be cited for going the man (McVee) in the centre square.

    Also, for those that thought we would lose, it’d be nice to get a sense of what we did well today against the undeniable premiership favourites.

    Looking forward to the post match reviews. 🙌🏼💙❤️

    “Collingwood are a 50 point team better than us” “ no clarry no Melbourne” “pies will smash us” “I don’t see us going anywhere”

    blah blah blah.

    Collingwood lucky not to lose by 7 goals. Now all you naysayers can eat your words. We’re still not a premiership favourite??? Malakas.

     

    GO THE [censored] DEEEESSSS!!!!!

    How good was that? Pies had no clue until last 3 minutes and that required the umps to help them.

    All the Eeyores - we have a very good team. Enjoy it. Don't look for perfection every week.

    We dominated that game. Make no mistakes this is the Port game in reverse. We kick straight and it’s a 6 goal win. 
    Absolutely brilliant performance missing two very important players. 
     

    I want to give a massive shout out to Smith and Tomlinson. Played perfect team roles. 
    And McVee and JVR who are delivering beyond their years. 
     

    A performance that makes you so proud. What an effort!

    Yea but then Pies fans wouldn't have been so traumatised by us crushing their fleeting hope in the last 30 seconds.

    Tough finals like footy. Great game that could have been a little less stressful with straight kicking for goal. We beat them with our game style…

    We nullified the pies game. Brough the heat and choked the corridor.

    We'll beat them in September as well if we play them. No doubt in my mind about that.

    Apart from the missed set shots, felt like there were fewer skill errors than in recent weeks and despite their limited match time this year I thought Tomlinson and Smith brought great value today and got us out of some tight spots.

     

    imagine how good we’ll be when Kosi and Fritsch regain their form and Clarry and Petty are back in.

    Wow just wow! We tried everything we could to stuff that up. Then the brain fell out of the ump and all hell broke loose!

    Glad to win but Jesus tried to stuff it should have won by at least 3 goals.  Immagind if they kicked one more  l could not have standard it. Take the win

    • 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?
