    How did we win it?

    Everyone contributed, enormously and we really went for the ball with a 'biff'. Melksham and Harmes never gave up. Gawn was brilliant and so was everyone else. Feel sorry for Pedo, as his game would have been a highlight today. Garlett, too. Still, we needed the percentage and we blodddy well went out and got it!

    Thank Christ the website update worked overnight.

    imagine if we had nowhere to gloat after that performance!

    Carlton have a fan forum, don't they? ?

    Commentators saying Carlton are a young side that is their excuse. Unfortunately for them we were younger. No research lip flappers. Go Deeeees!

    Just stopped staring at the AFL ladder for 5 minutes.

    You are forgiven. I worked it out last night and expected an 8 goal win with the 4 pts - blew my percentage arithmetic away.

    Must admit i was waiting for a ease off to come, but it didn't happen, just more goals and much more pressure. Just amazed.....????

    cant wait to bring my demon scárf to my Carlton supporting mate next weekend. I would have had to wear his if we lost

    That was a clinical dismantling. That’s what good sides do. We continued to harass and work hard and crack in for 4 quarters. We took first options.  We played like every goal should be celebrated and every goal hurts. All without a huge impact from Oliver, Viney and Hogan. Those that think football no longer has positions and you just have backs, Mids and forwards watch Fritsch play a wing and Brayshaw play a ruck rovers role. Those two and Tmacs return has completely changed our shape.

    Petracca and Hogan quiet. I would drop them both. Better?

    I hope every single Melbourne supporter enjoyed every minute of that today.  

    That performance could not have gotten any better, and after the last decade and with what we've put up with it's so satisfying to put Carlscum to the sword.

    And think about this... Hogan had just one goal.  Oliver and Viney were relatively quiet.  Hibberd was tagged out of the game.  Yet we still kicked 25 goals and made the Blues look like an Under 11 side.

    Melksham was BOG for me and what a recruit he has been.  Not only did he kick 5 but he set up heaps with his sublime skills.  McDonald kicked a bag, ANB got in on the act, Brayshaw continues to get better and better while the kids like Fritsch and Spargo are doing the same.  Just a total team performance.

    Special mention to Bull Smith as well - he battled manfully in the ruck and did some excellent work around the ground.

    I love this bloody club and I hope you all do, too!  DEMONS!!!!

    His 45 metre, inside 50 pass to TMAC who handballed it on to Hannan for a goal, was an exemplar of his decision making and execution skills... long may Brayshaw have a good clear run of injuries.

    For a brief moment I felt sorry for Carlton (only because I went to the game with my best friend who is a Carlton supporter)... but then I realized that nobody gave a stuff when we were garbage and I deserve this after years of suffering

    What a game to go out on before I go away for 3 weeks!

    I’ll give it a crack DA

    I think we’re in trouble next week - surely the team has to be completely knackered after kicking 46 goals in the last two weeks.

    Good to see we are sent to Northern Territory next week in the match of the round while Carlton enjoy another Friday night match the following week.

    • 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.
