    Bowey has been great. What game you watching?

    I have never really noticed before but are the Foxtel commentators having a circle jerk about St Kilda or is it just me?


    Not out of the woods yet, the saints still move the ball forward too easily and too frequently. Lucky for a few misses and goal posts (never seen the top hit before?), but I’m happy we responded and our hands have been much better tonight. Taking a few marks around the ground. Brown is clunking them too which is good to see.

    His two kicks from a standing-start straight to Saints defenders were “great”?

    You’re having a circle jerk?

    Too handball happy in the back half especially, and lucky the saints have missed a few easy shots - overall you can see we're trying to lower the eyes which is grea.

    After the AFL photo scandal during the week the clubs were told no more behinds. MFC took it the wrong way.

    Hard to see the Saints keeping this intensity up for much longer. Especially with the sub made and the extra injury to Ross. 
     

    Still we don’t look any good when the pressure is high on the ball.

    3 highlights that quarter:

    - Mays mark of the round

    - Juniors kick to Trac for a goal

    - Melky’s work to bring the ball to ground inside 50 when completely outnumbered and out positioned leading to a goal

    Need our rucks taking some marks around the ground and a few more center clearances and it should continue to be an enjoyable game

    Lots of ex Saints at Fox.

    JJ in traffic has been great. Why he doesn’t play each week has me baffled. 
    Wanganned needs a tag/tighter attention.

    Nibbler good, Brayshaws disposal has been poor. Taj looks good early. Salems made more mistakes tonight than in prob the whole year combined. 
    Saints should have 3 more goals but don’t. They are down a player and the sub used. We must win this.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
