    Dee’s by 35…. The TMac factor!

    I would shake my head and wryly laugh if/when our backline actually functions better with Tom McDonald.

    Been away working and travelling for 4 or so weeks. A lot of travelling through N-W Europe a lot of places to visit and a lot of reports to write.

    I get back and our season is done and dusted. Nothing really left to,play for. Damn it.

    Still my heart rules my head still… Dees by 30.

    I'm actually feeling very confident on this one. Despite the last few losses we've actually played patches of good footy. I expect it all to come together today.

    Dees by 40pts.

    After a few weeks absence, your good old Uncle Bitter will be attending today.

    I'm hoping for -

    Kozzie to kick a bag because, win or lose, he's a highlight.

    Max to have a big one and maybe tie up another AA.

    For us to look like we've got a functioning forward line.

    I actually think we'll win this comfortably. Dees by 27.

    I was gonna start a dedicated thread congratulating Goody on his 200th game as head coach (only the fourth MFC coach to do so) but it’s a given that within five minutes it would be hijacked by folks who want him gone but can’t/won’t say it without insulting him, and can’t/won’t say it once or twice, but insist on saying the same thing over and over and over and over again.

    CONGRATULATIONS

    ♥️💙 GOODY!!! ♥️💙

    Dees by my boy - and future MFC ⭐️ - Luker 44 pts

    i took the $4.30 on north to win

    go north

    I got them at $4.50 (I back against us every week and have done for almost 10 years). But I’d never say Go North. Shame on you, BDA! 😂

    It’s game day baby. Pumped to be back at the G.

    Surely we win this. Nth beating Melbourne is the football equivalent of my toaster winning MasterChef.

    Go Dees. Please don’t disappoint me.

    I’m hoping for a win by such a big margin, that there won’t be another post in the ‘Time to Go Goody’ thread for a month.

    ………. but I’m tipping a margin of about 4 goals in our favour, after a hard fight.

    I’ll do my best to ignore the “Time to Go Goody” thread for a month, should the unthinkable happen.

    It is incredibly gusty in St Kilda. Forecast suggests it'll hang around until the game starts. Would hate to be playing local footy today.

    Thankfully rain looks unlikely until after we're done.

    North will come in sniffing a win today. I hope we fight fire with fire, we have mature bodies and need to be on it early.

    True but of course we survived 2012-13 where I think from memory I attended 4 wins in 2 complete seasons….now those were tough times

    • 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.

      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?
