    I am stunned. Absolutely stunned. I hope that comeback is the start for the rest of the season. Reminded me of Geelong in 21.

    The way Rivers took the game on in the end was so important, he broke it open.

    Also, May kicking long down the middle from a kick in and it resulting in a goal, more of that please.

    “There are 3 teams, then the rest,” said Lloyd during week. Care to think again sunshine?

    Had to follow the scoreboard on a train. Looks of bewilderment when some bloke thumped the table when 105-104 came up.

    Can’t wait to get home and watch it x5.

    This. The belief. The fight. The ability to grind a win against a top side who really played brilliantly well. Sensational.

    If the Lions didn’t have a complex about trying to win at the G, I reckon they do now

    Brilliant comeback. I thought we had one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel after Daniher's goal early in the 4th.

    Viney's goal was superb, just a beast with a never say die attitude. Max was massive he must stay in the ruck. Good to see a few glimmers of form from Kossie too. Melk just [censored] wanted that last mark, nobody was getting in his way. He knows how to fire the crowd up too.

    I liked that the players generally took the game on in the last quarter, challenged the tackler and moved the ball forward rather than trying to make space with multiple short handballs. 

    Go Dee's!!

    May was next to Melksham with his arm around him when singing the team song. I think that says a lot.

    Good to know that. Wish all our players could band together as one, that'd be a powerful force!

    How loud was the crowd?

    Only 39k but at the ground the dees fans were brilliant and super loud in the last quarter.

    I have zero doubt it was a big factor.

    Good work dees fans.

    Can we have a minutes silence for the lions player who knocked the ball though for a point to us "The winning point" gave us the opening for a win with a few minutes on the clock.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      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.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      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?
