    Another damn breakfast game for me and I am on breakfast duty with visitors staying overnight. Will kick them out as soon as they finish their coffee. No seconds.

    Demons all over the Saints by 32 points. Go Dees!

    Dees supporters when Trac shanks it 30 metres out, on the run with the wind, 15 metres in the clear.

    I never got the appeal of the snow. It's cold, it's wet and it hurts when you fall. Give me the beach any day 😎

    i would much prefer to be holidaying in Croatia than watching the dirge these 2 sides will dish up

    I think saints will win but maybe kossie can get us over the line. He almost won it for us against Carlton last week

    The season end can't come quick enough

    If I don’t see Langdon stuck to Wanganeen-Milera from the first bounce to the final siren then it will be the final straw for me in attempting to understand what Goodwin is doing.

    I could point out your error but I do empathise.

    As mentioned previously whoever the carryover player is wont play for 2 weeks due to the Abomination that is Smithys bye club competition. It better NOT be Jeffo coz I WILL seriously self combust!💀

    Cannot watch the first bit, so the scene will be clear . Do I watch a great win or the younger players showing potential or not.

    Seriously I think it will be won in the coaching box. T he e players “love” RL more or he is more adventurous.

    So call it an upset if Dee’s get up, hope they do. We really should rest senior players for. One real go next year!

    I would like to see three things:

    • A win, obviously

    • Kozzy and Gawn to star, locking in AA

    • Lindsay, Langford and Windsor to play well with significant game time

    To many, all of that sounds more appealing than a predictable sighting of missed kicks, missed handballs and missed goals.

    On paper we look the better team. On the grass at Marvel, not so much.

    Dees by a couple of goals, because my red and blue heart says so.

    I’ve been up since 7am, Big Spooky One. My precious girls (aka my pet chooks) woke me early. They got confused and thought it was later in the morning. Either that or they know it’s gameday and they love hanging with me when I’m manic. 😂

    Anyways… Just for something different I’m tipping the Dees today 😅

    Us by Maysie and a cardiac arrest (1 point)

    GO THE MIGHTY DEES!!!

    PS: they’re letting me wave a giant flag today. I’m on probation. This is a test and the pass mark is zero eyes taken out. Wish me (and surrounding fans) luck!

    Saints on a losing streak. Like the Blues last week.

    Memo to Goodwin … it’s last chance saloon

    Dees MUST win this or it’s getting more than disappointing , it’s EMBARRASSING as a club !!

    Here’s some basic tips from the other side of the fence

    1. Wanganeen Milera … you let him run around for 37 possessions last time. Little pressure. wtf. At least make sure he’s under pressure

    2. Dees don’t let guys like Sharman or Wood or Higgins or Owens kick 4 or more goals. Amazing how many average “no namers” like Moir and Menzie have a day out against us

    3. DONT KICK TO WILKIE. Last time the strategy was to kick it so he could intercept. Ffs. It was dumb. Dumb footy.

    4. Protect Kozzzzzy. Windhager will go to a hard tag. Other clubs like cats and pies protect their players getting tags. Blocks. Bumps. Etc. Stand up for your teammates

    5. Centre clearances. Need to get this sorted as we have been weak each week. We were pathetic

    6. Development. Like to see Langford used for 5 or 6 CBAs this week. That’s where his future lies. Not on a wing.

    7. Start the game like you’re prepared. Our slow starts are becoming systemic. Turn it on from minute 1 to the siren. Relax time is AFTER the game.

    IMO Petty was brought in specifically to do the job on Wilkie who was far too strong for Melk last time out.

    I also wonder who can run decoy for Kozzzzzy. In previous ANB was the perfect support cast for our stars, we need someone to take that team first role, could it be Chin, Spargs or Sparrow?

    Just came back from a lovely week from the snow. It was lovely apart from 1 day where it was hideous. But you get a sunny 2 degree day & it's great.

    • 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?
