Win at least 6 out of the next 8. Then the next 3. 
like 87. Only better.  Go Dee’s 

 

Except in '87, we won the last 6 home and away, then two finals.

If we start the protecting lead mindset with a percentage of 99 it will be disgraceful. If the lead is only a few points then we must just to keep season alive.

Tricky

Best defence ... is attack ;)

There’s a few people on the train already

I think given the free kids entry and the activities and the weather, the turnout will be quite good. 
Parents are desperate for things to do on school holidays that don’t cost a thousand dollars. Trust me. 

Anyone at the ground?

If so, can you please advise if the top of the Ponsford is open.

    He didn’t attend any because he isn’t a member. 
    The last time he attended finals was 2018 when we played Hawks and Geelong.

    Apologies then I thought he had attended a couple of the recent finals games. 


    I expect a ten goal win.

    Stunning winters day. I think we’ll fall over the line and get the 4pts today. 🤞

    Didn’t make the most of his chances last week to warrant a full game. Dropped  a costly mark with 90 seconds left that lead to the winning goal by McCluggage.

    Hopefully Goodwin utilises a fresh player for more than the last 3 minutes of a game.

    I'm confident.

    My eye is in this weekend on the punt.  Excellent results on port and the giants.

    As a rule, I don't back the dees, but if I did i reckon the 33 points line is great value. 

    We are getting close to our optimal shape and think we will go hard early to establish a break.

    The eagles could bounce of the talk players are nor behind Simpson, but equally that could be a bad portent. Dees fans know all about how corrosive such chatter can be.

    And they are comimg off a six day break and travel, to our 8 day and no travel.

    As always the key will be taking our early chances. If we do I could see us giving them a touch up.

    By the by the other bet that I reckon is value is the crows making their 27 point line. 

     

    Strange they named Taj on the ground and Kolt on the extended interchange. I wonder if there's been a change there or if that was always the plan.

    Agree.

    I reckon he's lucky to be in the side at all to be honest.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      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.

      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?
