The Saints have added a bit of toughness around the ball plus the run and gun has another pre-season under the belt.

They look pretty good.

    easy to forget that the aints were in finals in 2023, losing an elimination final at home (well, the mcg) to gw$ before having a shocking start to 2024

    their transition football is fun to watch

    I really like the current Saints team. Skills and composure way ahead of ours, though that’s not saying much.

    Loving the aints win... Ross Lyon astute coach, DOESN'T SUFFER FOOLS gladly, I met him once, sized me up pretty quickly and I went away liking the man! has respect of the team, has good structures in place, and a great coaching dialogue. Swears a bit though!

    Freo on Easter Saturday might be a significant event for the club.

    Could be worse than last year if we don’t find some form quickly.

    Scary to think that they beat us by 15 goals last year when we were still a semblance of a competent side.

    Top 5 ball winners today for GWS, wouldn’t be many wasted possessions between them - what a glorious luxury.

    This one is far worse, as Greene looked at Owies before tunnelling him and then Owies is completely upended, landing on his head. This was extremely dangerous. Greene could have pulled out.

    Now the old boys are saying “what could Toby have done”? Pulled out for a start.

    This is the difference in the media.

    Fritta canned and people looking for a suspension and with Toby, trying to get him off.

    I [censored] hate the media and tribunal

    Gus. Oh, Gus. My heart is still rent in twain.

    I would hope that Brad Gwen and Steven Smith are putting together a very small committee to look at potential coaching and football staffing appointments.

    Things are not right.

    But it is what it is !

    if we have no improvement in the next 8-10 games. Pull the trigger urgently. Not for this year but next. Need to have the next coach and JT and his team all using the same songbook.

    Waiting until the last few games waste most of next year. Done that for at least 3 years treading water not going anywhere.

    I do hope we can beat the bombers

    But what about the in depth review ? Wasn't that supposed to fix things

    They flicked Pert who wasn't the main problem probably Pert was trying to highlight the real problems and got the boot instead

    Yes you might be right. Unless we/ you are part of the “inner circle”. We are never going to know, and then if it’s put up on here, someone will say it’s only heresay and you/ we are making it up. Fake news has a lot to answer for, and never takes responsibility. But if sure seems things have been “crook” for a while. All the time sayings things are fine.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
