Melodrama, melodrama.

Players named covered??

I'll say it again. The players were not alleged to have done anything wrong.

I think your safe from being mentioned on TV. And I am sure you have not done anything.

    I just have this gut feel that something is not right behind the scenes.

    The supposed clashes between Neeld and Todd Viney for example, what were they about?

    Really DeeZee? What exactly is making you feel this way hmmmm?

    This must be Dr. Who...

    No way! If it is any incarnation of the good doctor, it surely must be the sixth one. ;) (Whovians will get that joke).

    That Dank is the leaker is beyond dispute, but not the point.

    The point is the club's first statement was nothing more or less than weasel words designed to wriggle around the truth.

    John Howard could not have drafted anything better.

    It is a classic case of a partial truth designed to create an entirely false impression.

    OK I want to withdraw this earlier post of mine, but only in the sense that I am accusing the club of weasel words and taking lessons from John Howard.

    It may well have been an honest statement given the Friday April 19 revelation about Bates.

    John Howard remains the master of weasel words and I should not have doubted the old fella for a minute.

    Dank is clearly the leaker because ONLY HE would have access to all his texts: the ones that implicate Essendon and the ones that implicated Melbourne/Bates, and secondly because ONLY HE stands to gain from the content of the Melbourne messages all of which point to a legal supplements program.

    ergo, ipso facto and all the rest.

    And oversized shoes!

    I was laughing yesterday having read Old's post, because I visualised them running down the race and onto the ground in said clown suits. It's highly appropriate and best sums up this once proud, but now pathetic football club.

    I love the show but like every stereotype, there is more than a kernel of truth in that! Just remember.... it's not real!

    Was this a case of Dr. Bates running his own agenda....Knowing that all the supplememnts used were not illegal at that point.

    This would not excuse the Board completely, but i still cannot reason why The Board would mislead the AFL.

    They knew how serious this investigation was....we all saw and heard the press conferences.

    Once the dust settles. it is either Dr. Bates or the Board who must leave.

    Somebody lied (again) and this is just about my tipping point as was discussed last year.

    7 years of going backwards is not good for anyones health or self esteem.

    And now our coach says we are level with GW$...A True Cop Out

    3 years ago we were neck & Neck with Tiges & Kangas...

    Ever since Jimma was diagnosed with Cancer...This club has just made the wrong decisions. We could have got stronger, but that takes effort

    I know jims gone and god bless his soul, but the people he hired are the guys making the wrong decisions, probably wouldv happened regardless.

    • 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.
