I'm tired of being the Lions' bunnies. Dreaming of another 60+ win against them but more realistically hoping we win - even if only by a point.  Carn ya red legs!!  ❤💙

    It would be so good to knock these arrogant sun-soaked tools off at their dilapidated [censored]-heap of a ground.

    Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    Unfortunately Melbourne coaches and recruiters didn’t understand the importance of having a deep midfield. 

    Brisbane have 10 players that are capable of playing on ball. Dees are lucky to have 5. 
     

    they will run rings around us by shear force of numbers. Unfortunately we are 3-4 midfielders off being a decent side 

    This will be a great challenge especially for the youngsters. Good luck to AMW.

    And I hope we win just to give a big F U to all the misery around here lately.

    Hear, Hear! I’m with you on this, Zephs!!!

    If we win, the big F U might have to wait since the mob of sad-arzes won’t be here coz, well…a win.

    If we win I’ll be the first in the postgame thread to celebrate 🎉

    If we lose, I’m gonna put a massive bunch of space between me and Demonland coz, well… a loss 😢

    GO DEES!!!!

    GIVE ‘EM HELL!

    ❤️💙

     

    Good luck, Monners! 🤞🏽 

     

    Well I'm not holding out any hope. 

    But for gods sake petty and fritsch do something tonight.

    Happy to see lever back though 

    I'm quietly confident we will lift to the occasion and win a hard fought, gritty and at times spiteful clash against a key rival which we will build on through to September. Bring our contest and pressure and we are a very difficult team to play against.

    Hoping to put in our best performance since the St Kilda game and keep the margin very respectable. A win is unlikely for a number of reasons.

    However, win next week and there’s a scenario or two that would have us in the 8 at the end of round 17, or at the very least on the borderline.

    Moving day. play well (win or close loss) and the commentary may lighten up on us a bit.  ( some here might lighten up on each other, too!(

    It’s the start of the ‘backend of the season’ stretch.  I think we have set ourselves for this one.

    Keys:  Match them in contest and clearance  = dont allow massive clearance goal scores like they did against Geelong.

              Contested in their 50 - slow their transitions and make joe the goose play outside of the 50 for his touches 

             Pressure over 190 all game

            Score at least 85 points.

    This is the start of the next phase of the season, AMW to get a look in as part of his development, not sure we can play as tall as listed (?Late change?)

     

    W .   Go Dees!

    Still not confident of a win, very much the other way. But Lever back in solidifies the backs a bit. I see Tmac giving Max. Rest swinging forward it back where needed. 
    so perhaps it will not be a 50 point loss, with the back line working.

    Monners in for pup   I am disappointed but if they knew it might happen, not concerned re development.

    our mids will need to work better. Rivers to stay, he looked a natural in that position. I hope Sparra can come good. Viney is doing too much. And max, hit it to our blokes. 
    our forwards is why I think we will lose ,  

    JvR to stay on the ground the whole game, fritta and petty do something.

    and Kossy cause mayhem just run anywhere and get clear. If no one else is contesting the mark. Go for it !

    Go Dee’s   35-40 pints I think.

    If nothing else, this year’s AFL competition has shown that anything can happen on any given day.  Maybe the ‘Footy Gods’ will be smiling on us for a change ……. after all, it must be our bloody turn!  Dees by 3 points.

    Do they think we are Nth Melbourne?  I hope someone shows the players that and asks them to show the footy world what they think of that level of disrespect.

    Perhaps Sparra to run with Zorko ?

    Chin with Ashcroft . 
    If Oliver tagged too heavily swap him with Kossy.    Is there a plan C or D ?

    Just have a crack lads.

    Imagine the minds blown if we can pull this off haha. Media wouldn’t know where to rate us anymore (to be fair I wouldn’t know either) 

     

    Fritta and Petty do something. Sparrows time to lift.

    I have the belief that the situation up in Brisbane is the same as in Port.

    Wasted great lists and home ground advantage for years, and the coach could be sacked soon due to lack of finals success. Although Fagan has more credit because at least they got to a GF unlike Port.

    I do hope we can contribute to that this week 🤞🏻.

    • 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.

      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.
