Well...the Tiges have done a Port; let's see if they can hold on.

    FMD, the umpires really favour the WA teams over there, particularly crucial decisions. Two of Freo's goals resulted from poor umpiring.

    The media should probably apologise to Hardwick after he was widely ridiculed for his "Our best can beat anyone" comment. He has been proven right!

    They haven't beaten anyone yet...

    ...but Freo look rattled.

    Why are Melbourne wearing Freo jumpers tonight??

    Apparently we really caught Richmond at the right time.

    Maybe Richmond caught Freo at the right time.

    They are playing a very Melbourne type game, no doubt about that.

    Safe to say the Toiges have gone right past us since we last met.

    Combination of the two it would seem. Richmond have been slick with their ball use, and Deledio isn't the standout for once. They can't put a foot wrong. Even Morris looks like a footballer.

    We beat Richmond didn't we?

    Richmond missed so many gettable goals against us and kicked 5.16. They are on 13.3 tonight. Sometimes footy is a simple game, just kick it through the big sticks!

    I agree. But i hope your not implying that they played better than us on the night...

    I just don't know what to make of Richmond. At least we get thrashed by the top sides and do ok against the average ones. They have it backwards somehow.

    they always have, they are the giant killers. but fail to wake for games more often than not.

    The way Richmond are being talked up by the commentators is laughable. Let me remind you that St Kilda beat Fremantle last year and ended up wooden spooners. Richmond have beaten who, exactly? Essendon? Carlton? Brisbane? Collingwood*?

    They lost to us (and we seemingly only show up to games once a month) and Geelong (who are on the slide).

    *I don't rate wins against Collingwood. Their win against North was special, but they haven't pinched any wins off a genuine contender. In fact, their draw has been enviable, with wins against Brisbane, Saints, Essendon, Carlton, Gold Coast. Let's see how they're travelling after they play Hawks, Sydney and Freo.

    They just made a fool out of you and beat a side thats won 9 in a row and right on their home turf.

    Who cares if they are beating those sides. Atleast they are winning. Taking the game on with quick ball movement. None of this kick backwards or sideways to slow the play down.. they were daring tonight and i enjoyed watching them.

    I would still take their performance over ours this year.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?
