Scorps are playing incredibly well despite the one sided umpiring.

    Tim Smith deserves a go on an afl list. I know he's the wrong side of 25, but he's a really good third tall forward.

     

    Oliver, Ben Ken, and Terlich all really solid I thought, unfortunately ANB, Grimes and Matt Jones can get it but their skills are not good enough, and Weideman and Hullet look like genuine prospects.

    Sterling commentary from Campbell Brown a second ago: "well, Dunn is the spare man for Casey, and it looks like Russell is doing the same for Footscray down the other end..."

    Thanks mate, really insightful.

    I want Rhys- Jones back

    Weid and Oliver doing very well. Hulett picking up and Kennedy cracking in

    Good to see Terlich getting a good report, calming influence    Oliver will benefit immensely from this finals campaign    Joel Smith  good genes

    Looking to our future, not much to get excited about other than Oliver, Weid and J. Smith. Plenty of effort and good tackling by the rest, but poor disposal and no speed is the reason why most are playing at Casey.

    Not much to get excited about for the future?

    Righto then.

    Oliver is something else. Will be the best player of all our current players I reckon. 

    Like the look of Joel Smith. 

    The Weed having a good game. Will be a gun, no worries there. 

    Ferreira looks worth a punt.

    Without question. In fact, there's very few people I wouldn't have ahead of Thug Life. Sheet, I'd rather listen to Kevin Rudd.

    That's enough. Huelet looks alright as well and Salem is in the wings

    Add Huelett he should have 3 goals.

    Our skill is terrible. 

    Grimes has turned it over at least 6 times. 

    They seem to get the ball in the contest and then spread. We just turn it over when we have it. 

    ANB is like a headless chook. Does some absolutely stupid things with the ball. 

    We need to lift and get some clean disposal happening.

    I thought Terlich got us going with his run and dash.

    So who else can you see taking it to the next level?

    You're right. Pretty pathetic of this unexciting mob of youngsters who've made the VFL Grand Final and have the lead at half time, against the seconds team of this year's Grand Finalists.

    That's a step too far

    Dogs really had the rub of the green in that half. That doesn't usually last the whole game. 

    They're killing us in centre clearances though. We REALLY have to get that sorted out.

    Remember when Roos spoke about the 'veil of negativity'?

    • 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.
