I've watched plenty of games this year. The club is a long way off. At the end of the day are you going to end up with a midfielder that's really worth the price? It's so hard to have a hand at a premier tall forward, and we could potentially have 2, for a long time, while we develop other areas.

I get that we need a midfielder, but I don't understand the logic on passing on the opportunity to have two tall forwards very capable of kick 2+ goals per game. I don't see issues in continuing to develop our midfield as we are. It's our worst area but it's also our most demanding. You're all taking 2 steps forward with your thoughts, but then going 3 steps back when you try to explain the logic on passing on Cloke for "good midfielders". We're not winning a flag tomorrow.

    Anyone who thinks Cloke is a good fit for our side hasnt been watching games this year.

    A midfield that this season is ranked one of the last for forward 50 delivery. Lets have two expensive players standing around all day in the forward 50 because we lack the class in the midfield to get the ball to them.

    Maybe you haven't been watching games too closely either? Clark and Cloak are forwards who often involve themselves in play down the ground (Clark because he often has no choice and Cloak because he chooses to do so). With a little coordination, they could be working for each other with one staying in the forward line and the other sending the ball in... that is assuming that Viney, Jones, Magner, et al aren't performing.

    I can see us getting some midfield strength from the draft aside from Viney, so I think it is definitely worth chasing Cloak while he is available... next year is not an option as far as he is concerned. Perhaps our midfield is not as bad as we like to think... maybe, just maybe, the ruck work hasn't been up to scratch and as a result we have not been getting first go at the clearances?

    Oh, and I for one believe that Jurrah will definitely be going around with us next year.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
