    [censored] you Andrew Maher, [censored] you Josh Jenkins and [censored] all these other [censored] who were adamant, following the noise like sheep and declared we were certain bottom 4.

    Also, 1.8 million dollars and 2 million dollars men are 0-2. St Kilda are truly a sh*t club. Even when they spend they still fail. GWS and Brisbane. Finish them!

    We still have a capable list and what a statement win!

    Not trying to be negative but I think we've done well parting ways with several players.

    I think that’s being positive.

    Loving the win, but not sure I can take a full season of these games. Error-riddled brilliance.

    The Saints had so much more of the ball, and lots of open flow in transition, but somehow we managed to continue to play our game and got the 4 points. So much to like.

    Hitting moving targets in F50 was so, so refreshing. Our new boys - Steele, Jiath, Checkers. Sharp 's amazing improvement. Max, Culley, Latrelle.

    Our defensive effort and structure through the middle of the ground was appalling. The Saints had so much free ball through the middle which they simply wasted.

    And so many missed opportunities in the last quarter.

    Fritsch, Sparrow, Howes, Langford had poor games.

    Great first win and takes some pressure off the boys.

    Still lots of mistakes both skill and decision from our younger players that will improve over time. Often not aware of what is around them and getting caught.

    Best game I have seen from sharp after half time, he always had the tank and speed when we got him. Never seemed to get a fair run at it.

    Looking for more from Langford (yes he's young) next week, as it was the quietest game from him ever. Just never seemed to get into the game.

    Good confidence builder and looking forward to seeing them live next Saturday night!

    Lots of positives to take from today youngsters stood firm.

    Lever fought back from having a shocker will allow some lenience for 1st game.

    Max WOW!

    Just build the statue now.

    ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

    Career best 6 goal performance, must get votes!

    Made mistakes but kept on going, encouraging signs going forward, plenty to work on.

    He really stepped up in the last quarter. Some great moments.

    What I loved about that win was the fact that it was a team win. Max was absolutely supreme and JVR was massive but apart from that collectively everyone contributed when they needed.

    Most enjoyable game of footy I have watched for 4 years!

    All hail the King!

    Some interesting team stats I was just looking at.

    It looks like the Saints had more of everything, except 2 crucial stats – we had more bounces, and more tackles.

    Either we are being very efficient, or they are squandering the ball.

    WHAT A GAME!!

    So much fun to watch. King has done an amazing job in the off season to completely redesign the team and game plan

    Culley is the real deal.

    The most positive thing for me is that we appear to have unlearned the old game plan already

    no pointless bombing the ball today

    some mid forward connection

    Long may this continue

    Great win, effort there all day but FFS

    Some of you should be embarrassed with your comments on the game day thread, I’ll give you a tip Rd 1 next year we’ll also be a little rusty.

    Max take a bow

    Keep it to yourself. Let people support how they want and just enjoy the win.

    A lot of the better teams these days win without dominating stats. run and gun style you don’t need them

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
