Great to see Hogan kick both of this goals. He needs to make sure he kicks those important ones more often.

I'm loving this. This is the footy I want my club to play!

I know he gets a big of flak these days, but Bernie has been sensational so far today.

How is that not a free kick? Saints have been kissed on the dick by a fairy.

Can't believe we are in front!

Hogan! What a kick from Trac, too! DEMONS! Back to 3 points!

Tommy Mac with an unbelievable spoil then. Great kick in, quick movement and a Garlett goal. Back to 9 points!

I've blocked the others out, Ted. I can only handle one at a time.

That's better! Great goal Weids, we need more composure from you just like that! Much better pressure as well.

At the moment, yes. We just made an absolutely horrendous turnover as well. I wouldn't switch it on... yet.

Making hard work of it, but good goal to Hannan. Get it in there quickly and see what happens!

Saints throw, play on. Goal. Get [censored].

Boy, did we need that! Set up well by a terrific mark from Petracca and a clever kick from Lewis. And Watts needed that goal for his confidence! A few more in a row would be handy!

Yep, our mids aren't doing a good enough job around the contest at the moment. We're letting them win most of the contests and then they use their run and spread to kill us. We need to tighten the screws there if we're to get back into the match.

We're struggling, and it's down in part to the pressure the Saints are applying and how they are setting up so well behind the ball. Their spare man is picking everything off. Our midfield needs to lift as well. Viney, Petracca, Brayshaw, Salem etc. are not giving us much right now and it's hurting. Weideman has coughed up a few chances and, as so many have mentioned, our backline, in particular Oscar Mac, are struggling big time. There is a long way to go though, and we're lucky to only by 23 points down at quarter time. I reckon we get better from here as it's the only place we can go.

They are setting up so well behind the ball, but we don't help ourselves by kicking it blindly forward. We have 3 minutes left to stem the tide. We've been poor, but there is a long way to go. Saints just got a soft free kick, too. It was there, but it was soft.

They are absolutely smashing us around the contest at the minute. It's the same old story for us, but we've got a big 5 minutes ahead to stem the flow.

Saints looking very, very good at the minute. We are extremely fumbly, I reckon Weideman has dropped a mark and fumbled the ball twice.

A centre clearance would be handy.

Loving the Roos commentary, too. Totally biased and I'm loving every minute of it.

Our pressure has been amazing so far, Stretch needs to kick this. Could have been about 5 free kicks to both sides before it. And Stretch... kicks it!! Well done, son! 15-7 our way.

Hell yeah! Dees on the board through Garlett, quick ball movement into the open forward line! Must watch the Saints on the switch, though. They've been good from both of their kick outs.

C'mon Hoges, don't let us down!

I hate St. Kilda.

Dees just ran out on to the ground, almost brought up a few of Ethan's dumplings I'm that nervous.
