Hopefully Petterd can take Cheney's spot off half back, where he exploded into AFL in 2007. I'm glad Cheney's been omitted. Was offering us absolutley nothing the last 2 weeks. We seem to be gifting games to players who clearly aren't up to standard at the moment. I guess we have no depth, once we get a few injuries.

Maric not in the team is a sick joke right? We have an exciting fwd line of Watts, Jurrah, Robbo, and Maric lining up.....in the VFL.

    McMahon has no confidefnce in himself, treats the pill as a hot potato, good teams expose him

    So what about us ;) ?!!!

    Disappointed about Maric but I would hope that there are valid reasons behind the omission and that we will see him extremely soon.

    Otherwise there might be a mess being made in here :unsure: !!!

    The Bulldogs were pleased that he left for the tigers. Well they're supporters did.

    Maric had surgery over the summer so it maybe that Bailey feels he needs another game at VFL Level to have the match fitness for an AFL game. Certainly when fit he will be a vauable addition in midfield and forward.

    Newton has promise. He can take a spectacular grab and applies good defensive pressure. His challenge is to take more of the less spectacular marks, do the regulation mark and goal. Hopefully the kgs he put on over summer will assist. Certainly opposing defenders would be more concerned at being one out with Newton than Pettard as hte ball comes in long or on the lead.

    He fall to the ground to much for me, i hope he can change that this weekend.

    If you had to pick one game to watch this weekend, would you pick the casey games or the DEES? It would almost be tempting to take the casey games, considering the future talent there to watch.

    Luckily we can watch both.

    ok ta ta for now

    Crumbs!!! I am dumbfounded Maric has not got a game........ I am desperate to see him in the fwd line crumbing the taller fwds we have. No one else comes within a bull roar of being able to do what he does at a fwds feet in the match day squad.

    Is it just me or does Marci seem to be given a lot less of a look in than a number of other players (read Newts, old Col etc..) getting a game in the 1's?

    MARIC IS NOT YET FIT ENOUGH.

    How hard is that to understand?

    What is the point of having him out there underdone & unable to run out the game..?

    Exactly. Its like complaining that we don't have Neitz in the side cos we need someone to kick goals.

    For Watts' sake!

    The point is - There's no way Brocky or PJ are 100% either! The kid may only be 80%, but he's been BOG at Casey 4 the last couple of weeks, let him run into that final 15-20% of fitness at the DEES. Giving him a bit of reward for effort too- not just for him but 4 us as well. ;) Sh*t, you telling me you wouldn't put him ahead of Slyvia, or Newts or PJ at the moment?.. (yes, SLYvia)

    • 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.
