I'm not even emotionally over Tuesday's game yet. Do we need to do it all over again already?

It's feels like I'm 20 years old again and getting sh*tfaced on bourbon and the next day saying I'm never going to do that again.

    The AFL was going to make this game a first to 5 goals but realised that may take longer than the normal four quarters the rest of the comp play.

    I hope tmac can play. I would risk him along with Hogan and the weed in the forward line with Hogan playing CHF against essenscum. They will then have to put Hooker in the backline. I'd have Garlett (just) with Hannan and Fritsch as the other forwards. They could rest the weed and put Pedo in but I doubt it.

    No Pedo? If we are going to continue bombing the ball into a vacant forward line  surely we'd be better with him in the team? 

    Tmac I hope is picked to take that spot

    Bombers have a few out too.

    Josh Begley, Tom Bellchambers, Josh Green, David Myers and Michael Hartley are all out with youngsters including Kobe Mutch and Dylan Clarke potential ins.

    Harmes is a forward and has kicked one goal!  He should be dropped, done nothing in 5 weeks.

    Vince needed to be rested on the short break especially with fellow slow plodding dinosaur Lewis back. Not good.

    We will lose this game.

    He did lay 9 tackles against Richmond, so not exactly "done nothing".

    We've kept both ANB and Harmes. Insane.

    We cannot keep giving ANB games because he clocks up big running numbers. We cannot keep giving Harmes games because he tackles. Neither of them do anything else and it's costing us.

    Good decision to drop Stretch. We don't need to see another game from him to know he isn't good enough.

    Will be interesting to see if we play either of Hannan and Fritsch. I would have included one or both of them for ANB/Harmes. Since we're not dropping either of them, it becomes much harder to see where Hannan/Fritsch slot into the side.

    WHAT A [censored] JOKE!

    PEDO NOT EVEN ON THE BENCH. WELL HIS PAPERS ARE STAMPED HE WON'T BE AROUND NEXT YEAR. IF HE CAN'T GET A GAME WITH HIS FORM HE'LL NEVER GET A GAME.

    ANB AND HARMES CONTINUE TO GET A GAME. THE SELECTION COMMITTEE ARE A BUNCH OF MORONS.

    Congrats to Spargo, I doubt McDonald will play considering he trained at Casey.

    Lucky we are playing Essendon we wouldn't be able to beat another side on paper.

    POSSIBLE LINE UP

    FOLL: GAWN, TYSON, JONES

    IC: SPARGO, LEWIS, VINCE, HARMES

    EMERG: HANNAN

    Best of luck to Spargo on his debut. Though small in stature, he's big in fight. I think he can be a good player for us long-term, so excited to see him out there!

    Seriously we must be the only club in history unlucky enough to have a player get bitten by a dog, develop an infection so bad it gets into the bone and requires surgery. FML!!!

    I would have Fitsch, Hannan, tmac and Garlett from the interchange with garlett being on his last song. I see people saying Spargo to play so that 4 maybe not. Harmes lucky to be playing and I would like to know why Lewis is automatically selected as well as Vince.

    This might be because the guys who played on Tuesday probably didnt train, and they wanted to get a full session into him

    • 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.
