Go Saints.

Without knowing what will transpire tomorrow, I think St Kilda winning would be bad for us.

    Lions kicking for goal very poor. Could be one of those games for them.

    The opposite actually. If the saints win then sydney can't move up from 7th.  Unless they beat us by 10 goals and the blues lose by 10 but hard to see that happening.

    I was thinking more along the lines of Port/Melbourne winning tomorrow. We’d have to travel against an inform Port. I’d prefer a flaky Collingwood at the G.

    But if Port lose and we win, then we’re hosting a final.

    It’s a difficult day.

    Brisbane lose

    Melbourne win and Port win - we play Port in Adelaide

    Melbourne win and Port lose - we claim 2nd spot and a home final vs Lions.

    I just want it to get to the Port match with top 2 still in play. Would suck if it ended right now.

    Gee lions making hard work of it.    How different if it playing during the day in Brassie compared to a slippery night game.

    We've got 4th locked regardless of any other results this round.

    Dead rubber v swans. Use tomorrow's game to experiment fwd and down back. 

    A win is great . Lose ? Who cares. Stay away from the Gabba. They'll be kicking goals blindfolded in the QF . Todays goal kicking mess is irrelevant.

    Wow, just wow. Brad Hill has a chance for a massive breakaway, doesn't handball, somehow finds himself in a htb tackle, back the other way and Daniher goal. 

    Kayfabe of WWE standards.

    St Kilda winning and us winning gives us a home final against Brisbane.

    Edit: I am wrong.

    You could fool me that St Kilda are a finals team. Sure they are frustrating them with good defensive structure but where's the execution? Can't generate any scoring shots and look like they panic when making that final kick into 50. 

    Plenty of teams would be putting Brisbane to the sword for missing those chances but not the Saints. Blinkers central.

    • 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?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
