We come off Aami Stadium with no injuries on match day again. But after Round 1 Garland and Buckley get injuried during the week and after Round 2 Mcdonald gets injuried during the week. Fingers crossed No injuries after today.

    Yea I hope so as well. We can't afford any more defenders to go down like Warnock or Frawley. Does anyone know how McDonald is progressing?

    Don't forget Bail who played well at Casey last week was suddenly not selected to play this week either in the AFL or the VFL.

    I hope he does return MelbournePassion.

    Out- Dunn

    In- McDonald.

    Yeah, Maric will come in this week for Jetta. Bad luck to the young man, but he just isn`t doing that much for us at the moment.

    Out- Dunn,Jetta

    In- McDonald,Maric

    Yeah bad luck if Jetta gets dropped but Bennell and Cheney have shown more as first-year players so Jetta's the obvious choice.

    I think that Jetta, Cheney and Bennell can all play together and should.

    Be ludicrous to dump them now. They seem to be improving by the week. The Roos clearly underestimated Cheney in round one and he has played solid in the next 2 round. Bennell and Jetta seem to get more confidence with every possession.

    I reckon Bennell is progressing the best out of the 3. Is improving 100% per game. Loved that tackle and holding the ball he won in the last qtr and resultant goal.

    Has a bit of class and composure about him. Good signs.

    Yeah 14 disposals for 0 critical errors. Very promising youngster got some speed to and he backs himself.

    Garland complained of soreness after the round one match; subsequent scans revealed a stress fracture of a navicular bone.

    The fact that this news came out during the week does not qualify it to be represented in this thread.

    For some reason, Jamie Bennell isn't listed in the stats for Port Adelaide V Melbourne on the AFL website.

    Yeah I noticed that, Poor by the AFL website.

    • 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.
