The number of close wins theyve had reads like a fairytale. Theyre good at it but luck and dodgy umpiring certainly plays its role.

We probably  would of lost to the Pies if the game had gone another minute. Just one more crucial umpiring decision Pies way and the Pies win another game on the siren.

    I imagine Kane Farrell is not Mr.Popular on the Port boards today.  The deliberate OOB that gave Elliott a makeable shot at goal and then dropping the pressure chest mark at the death.

    And then dropped a sitter inside 50 from a JHF pass with a minute to go.

    It's funny how the best teams have so many "lucky" wins.

    The best teams fight to the end and always believe they can win. It's what separates them from the rest.

    And we don’t? 
    We fought back twice against the Lions, and against Port and held on against the Pies. Our average losing margin is exceptionally small for a reason. 

    We just don’t get behind as often at the Pies, so nobody rates our ability to fight back and win. But that doesn’t mean we don’t or can’t. We fought back from 19 points down in a grand final and won by 70+.

    Means nothing if you're fighting back and not getting the results.

    Pies on the other hand simply get the results.

    Agree. We’re rarely not in with a chance to win our games. It’s why we’re a contender as well.

    We beat Lions, we beat Dogs, we beat Geelong. 
    And I bet my bottom dollar that if Oliver doesn’t do his hamstring we beat Port as well. 
     

    There is a lot to be said for fighting back and winning. But there’s equally a lot to be said for not needing to constantly fight back to win, don’t you think? 
    Why is Pies coming back and winning more impressive than Melbourne being in every game we play and rarely being in a position to not win it?

    Are you a Melbourne supporter? I think if there has been another minute e we would have won by over a goal.

    St Kilda being able to start the last two seasons the same and fade out the same is uncanny, 

    When are they sacking Ross the Boss?

    These over-celebrations by the Saints players after kicking a goal is hilarious.

    You’re on 61 points with 10 minutes left against the second worst team in the comp that hasn’t won a game since round 2. 
     

    I’d be ashamed if I even cracked a smile lol

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
