brock mclean emergencies? wat were they smoking at the time?

 

He'd been injured since round 1 hadn't he? Think he was close to playing and ended up playing the next week against the Kangas.

Don't know why you would put a player as an emergency when he's injured.

You either wait til he's fit and play him, or leave him out of the team.

:lol: Exactly what I was thinking. Unusual to see a name like that as emergency. They must of been waiting to see if he come up from an injury. Even more unusual to see him named as emergency playing in Perth. The backline has had a face lift!


Wow, it's been a long time. Obviously we lost, but does anyone remember by how much?

Lost by about 12 or 13 goals, but amazingly TJ got 1 brownlow vote and Sylvia played a classy cameo with 3 goals.

Thanks BBP. I have absolutely no recollection of this one whatsoever. Now I know why...

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
