I wouldn't read too much into this game.  St Kilda's pressure and effort was non existent.

    That's more like it !!

    We were a bit scrappy early but  a burst of class in the 3rd quarter did the business . After that, apart from a couple of disappointing junk time goals, we smashed them.

    PS . You will never see a better ruckman than Max Gawn !

    PPS. That new player, Thommo I think his name is, did ok too.

    First half was as boring as I’ve seen in a while, second half when we played on from the marks was really good to watch.

    defence were excellent. hardly missed a beat in Lever's absence (other than the last 5 mins. annoying conceding those junk time goals)

    Tommo great inclusion. Max just huge as always. Petty and McAdam can go in the bin. 

    Petty is woefully out of form. Maybe just not a forward I guess. It happens.

    Credit to Lachie Hunter. Thought he was pretty good today.

    They looked at his foot, but supposedly more precaution than an injury.

    Last 5 minutes were annoying but that was a solid win overall. We moved the ball much quicker which was good to see.

    Gawn was unreal. His tapwork was as good as it's been in years. 

    A big shout out to Tmac as well. He's been outstanding this year.

    Last 3 goals to the saints. Cost me $200 win !!! FFS. Went defensive when 9 goals up 

    $100 for me. I absolutely hate over/unders or margin bracket legs in a MFC game but got sucked in.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
