Love the cheer when the guns go up.

Who knew all that "gun shot" practice from Saty would pay off?

    Yeh that's one for the ages man. Maybe the best "insider" vid i've seen from MFC

    Love the fact the Club arranged the Hulk drop by and love that the players are enjoying themselves so much. I would imagine it is a way better place to be an AFL footballer than a couple of years ago

    Onwards and upwards

    Classic!

    Chris Connolly carrying on about Freo making a play for Hogan stuck in my craw - fuelled by massive sour grapes I would think.

    You seem surprised? I would be more surprised if the number of other clubs chasing his signature is less than 17. Whilst it's still early days, he is something special alright.

    Doesn't come out of contract until the end of 2017, and you can bet like hell that we'd ensure that he sticks around for the entirety of that contract (unlike GWS). When the appropriate time comes, we'll give him a massive offer in both $ and years.

    Fear not chook, this one's a stayer!

    I'm not surprised or particularly worried but galled by Connolly's seeming delight in stirring up trouble.

    This combined with his behaviour when he was with us makes me think he was a white ant in a past life.

    i don't agree, he is still a Melbourne man, but of course free will go hard at hogan, it will be a constant struggle to keep him.

    Chris Connolly is a chubby cretin whose unprofessionalism nearly brought us to our knees. It's no coincidence we started improving once his incompetent arse was shown the door. He is a suburban level jokester with no AFL level traits, substance, or relevance

    Connolly and Schwab - what a comedy duo

    As soon as Freo gave them the chop they became an ultra professional club and a perennial top 4 team.

    We will follow the same path

    I said in all seriousness a while back that he is the no.1 most valuable asset in the comp

    We will have to endure a hellofalot more 'noise' from many clubs until he is signed again

    then again for his 3rd contract

    he's too good

    I love what the club is doing with the players ..... They must have loved it. Will the hulk be at the game.

    Fremantle will make a play for Jesse every year, he's just that good.

    I'm very confident he's a demon at heart now through. And freo are going to be left in tatters by 2017

    Both absolute campaigners.

    Should not be allowed within 5km near the footy club. It does seem we are going down the same path as Freo.

    Oh please He was part of the reason for the Debt Demolition ie saving this club........Spent a huge amount of time organising fund raisers at the Dee's and casey.

    He played his football for Melbourne and Coached Freo into the finals for the first time in their history

    So please enlighten me that he has no AFL level traits, substance or relevance. Yes he may have made some mistakes(Who hasn't) but he put his heart and soul into the Melbourne Footy Club.

    It's so easy to sit behind a keyboard and knock people who have contributed to the club in ways you can only dream of.

    You only show your ignorance.

    This will be deleted soon, as well as my response, but what a ridiculous thing to say.

    You don't know him, and the situation we faced as a club a few years ago cannot simply be laid at the feet of Schwab and CC. They love the club as much as you do.

    And that little aside about the 'jokester' tells me you don't have much against him other than a bad joke that was jumped on by some bitter individuals to grind their axes on, that began the investigation into 2009.

    Freo will need to trade for him if they want him.

    We'll take Fyfe.

    like most things in life the truth probably lies between the two extremes expressed here re Connolly.

    He obviously did some good work for the club but I suspect he carries a chip on his shoulder about not being given the coaching gig and I doubt ever fully supported the coaches who were there during his time.

    I can't understand him buying in to the Hogan/ Freo thing without there being some angst behind it. He was only stating the obvious after all

    If Jesse scores the first goal he should celebrate something like this.

    No we won't

    If he wants to go they'll need to seek a trade. Who would you want?

    • 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.
