We can play football.

Just not all the time.
 

You could watch that quarter and try to explain the holding the ball rule to a new fan of the game and they'd be so confused.

Congratulations AFL. In trying to make the game more marketable you've actually made it impossible to follow.

Boys were much better that quarter. We have improved - because 2 years ago we would have been rolled by 120 points.


Have every right to be [censored] at the umpiring. If we lose this it's definitely our own fault but the blatant favouritism to the Dogs gives me the shits.

Credit for that quarter but why the fark do they always go missing in the first quarter.

Surprisingly this could be a turning point for the club if they have a good final term - shows they can play decent attacking footy when their heads are in the right space.

It must be in their heads!! FFS!!!!

It's always in their heads. You only have to look at the Dogs' first quarter: confidence breeds confidence.
 

Comebacks when the game is over do nothing for me. I've seen them again and again and again. Let me know when they start like they mean it.

"Disappointing that we didn't start well, but we won the third quarter"

The game was over after 10 minutes.

Absolutely not good enough.

I believe that to be quite incorrect. He is providing a good target for us up forward. He hasnt been as influential as in recent weeks, but he has still contributed.

1 mark and 8 disp to 3/4 time, TMac replaces him in ruck. As I said, ineffective by Gawn


And while we're bagging out things ... "This reply has not been added as it has been posted too quickly"

A big F*** Y** to this forum's software.

Dogs are a very good team, and came out fired up. From then on, it was always about playing catch up.

5 goals to 2pts...didn't see that coming.

The umpiring is garbage in EVERY match. Not just ours. Wayne Campbell ... have you read the rule book?

illiterates cannot read

Surprisingly this could be a turning point for the club if they have a good final term -

we've had so many potential turning points this year, they'll invent a new polygon for us.

It really shits me when we play footy like that after not even being on the ground for the first half.

It must be in their heads!! FFS!!!!

Of course it's in their heads!!! All footy is. That's why we needed new coaching personel. 50% practical/50% mental.

5 goals to 2pts...didn't see that coming.

Saints came from 55 points down to beat the dogs. We can do this.

Oops, my mancrush Jesse just made a mistake......Oh Dear.


Too cute, but at least they tried

 

Aghhh, Jack...

Free Kick Count. 15-7. Appalling umpiring.

  • 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.
