Damn you for making me notice it. It drives me nuts now!!

Just called Bailey Williams. 

There's only one player on the ground with that surname.

Thankfully Bailey Smith isn't playing.

    Looks like free kick Bulldogs is back in vogue, currently 10 to 2.

    Both are very poor defensively so the Saints should be able to claw a fair chunk of this back if they play fast smart footy

    I find it ironic Joel Selwood would give advice on how not to draw a high free kick like its something he never did.

    A bit like Leigh Matthews carping on about not hitting people behind play!

    If I were a St Kilda fan, I don't think I would have survived the 2004-2010 period with zero premierships to show for it.
    Just imagine we lost in 2021 and exited this period with no premierships. It would be intolerable.

    I have a few friends who are Saints fans who have lost all interest in the club since 2011. So sad.

    This is classic Dogs under Bevo. Needs a ‘backs against the wall, us against the world’ mentality to get them up.

    It’s consistency that’s there issue.

    This will be a laughable opinion to many, but it’s why I don’t think Ross Lion is all he’s made out to be. He took over saints after all the hard work had been done and no flag. 

    Then leaves when they start going south. 
     

    Then he inherited Freo after all the hard work had been done, no flag. 

    Then leaves when things start going south. 
     

    If he wins a flag after returning to the saints then I’ll own up to how dumb this comment is. But that’s an ‘if’ he gets them to win a flag but…
     

    That St. Kilda team in the 10,11 years especially, was filled with so much A grade talent, it’s actually absurd they didn’t win a flag. And that team was gifted to Lion just like Freo. 
     

    No flags.

    Not sure if the TV commentators have mentioned it (as I'm listening via SEN app) but there was absolute bedlam for people getting to the ground tonight. Power outage on the train lines and the trains weren't even stopping at Southern Cross before the game. Then everyone jumped in their cars and the roads were stuffed. Hence pretty poor crowd.

    They were Favourites to win this earlier today…

    They did this with Easton Wood. They never called him ‘Wood,’ It was always ‘Easton Wood.’

    The funny thing is that for all their problems... Dogs are only one game behind us

    By the end of the weekend we will probably be 8th

    It's a long season

    Probably the Sunbury line DW.  I use it for work and every day there's either an illegal trespasser on the tracks, a police incident at a station or a power outage somewhere that shuts down the line on the way home.

    It tends to be players with surname type first names.

    I first noticed it with Mitchell White of WC Eagles about 30 years ago. Continued with Fraser Gehrig et al. Although that BT moron used to call him "Fraser" sometimes. 

    This discussion is more interesting than the carnage taking place at Doglands.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
