50th on Sunday...Whilst at school kids laughed at me for being a Demon in the 70s.

Now they laugh in sympathy, & we are told to be patient.

Why do our players not seem to be up to AFL standard?

Why should we accept this season after season??????????????????????????????

Congratulations, yes mate it's time for change, where obviously in the hands of the AFL now, I personally believe that no one apart from Kennet has put there hand up for the job, all I want out of the MFC is to be able take my 8 year old boy to the footy without losing every single time, I don't want to win every time, but when I get off the train Punt Road I would like to think we're half a chance, the last 6 yrs has been utter garbage, every season you buy your membership and the seasons over in the first round, this current board offers no hope.

    Happy to take as much money from the AFL as we can get, after their contribution to our financial position, in always giving us a totally unfinancial fixture.

    PS. I concede our pathetic performances have not helped either.

    PPS. Interesting post earlier, that because of our position, other club's revenue is also being affected. People not coming to Dees games from both clubs playing, because they don't expect a contest. To that end the other clubs want us to be helped and to be competitive, as it is better for everyone.

    Which is why the AFL will not let us fold.

    My view, is that things will change , led by Peter Jackson.

    He will ensure, we have some new staff, who are ruthless about winning, and excellant at what they do.

    However, it will take time, and money.

    He will see the AFL with a plan, next week, they will hopefully accept it. Then things will start changing.

    A number of our issues go back a few years , most important, being our list management.

    This will take time to fix.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
