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.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      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.
