The Suns won't get much confidence from their NEAFL game. With 11 Suns listed players, they lost to the Lions 12.24 (96) to 0.4 (4) .

Didn't kick a [censored] goal!

    well, given the state of the GC reserves we should go ok. 

    They had 11 listed players and 5 are first round picks and they failed to score a goal in the NEAFL against the Lions reserves team.

    how can a team that is 3-2 in the NEAFL, with players such as Peter Wright and Kade Koladjashnij not score a goal and only score 4 points for the whole game.

    I'm out all day so I'll be keeping tabs on my phone.  As I can't discuss the game with all you wonderful* people, I'll leave you with these:

    - A 5 goal win is fine.  In fact, ANY win on the road is fine.

    - Dom Tyson is the best disposer of the football in the AFL and will hit target after target today.

    - Don't [censored] your pants when Gold Coast kick the first and then refer to the lead up play as 'reminding you of the Mark Neeld days'

    - ANB should be a long distance runner at the next Olympic Games.

    - Dees to win... by 5 goals...

     

    *Most of you are wonderful...

    But the highs and the lows I go through every 39 seconds... they vary...

    lol

    Dom has so far got 4 from 4 kicks in the pregame - don’t use up all your tickets pal...

    Wife has volunteered today, god bless her. Apparently the fishing has been quite good and the big croc is out sunning himself.

    Why isn't this game in Cairns ?? I'm in Port Douglas now and I would go to watch them in a heartbeat if it were in Cairns. As it is, I'll be watching it with FND at the Central Hotel in Port Douglas as the coconut palms sway in a gentle tropical zephyr. 

    This is our day people !! 

    Hey Pineapple, I did just exactly that when I was up there visiting relatives and watched the Brisbane game! 

    Agree with Cairns venue. Tell you what you will find a few Dees supporters sharing a frothy with you at the Central! 

    Also the regular Cane toad races are Huge next door!!

    Enjoy!

    Sorry too lazy to change threads......that c.curnows ok.

    Worried about the 4 games in 18 days affect on our run! 

    Just taken my seat at the Vulture street end ground surface looks great, conditions near perfect except for a swirly wind. The crowd is underwhelming. I thought there was a clown convention on as well but just realised they are Suns supporters in full gear!

    That's some impressive laziness. Are you going to be able to manage the remote?

    15mins from first bounce and the MFC cheer squad makes up about 1/4 of the total crowd.  Not going to be breaking any attendance records here today.

    Will probably be a bigger crowd at tomorrow's VFL game to watch Casey.

    I do hope so.  A more legitimate Aussie Rules following up on the GC than Western Sydney.  It's a long was from the GC to Brisbane ...a bit like the MFC playing a home game at Kardinia Park.  Based on this attendance GC would probably have been better off playing at Southport's home ground tonight.

    • 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.
