Has a team ever won the Inside 50 count by 20 and had more Inside 50s than their score?

    There’s not many games that the umpires really impact!

    But they absolutely screwed the Demons tonight!

    Umpiring a disgrace.

    Harmes killed all our momentum in the third quarter when he decided to go and hit a number of Port Adelaide players on the [censored].

    Lewis cooked.

    Tyson cooked.

    Fumbles.

    Umpiring a disgrace.

    Oscar is nothing with Lever.

    Melksham and Tom McDonald couldn't buy a free kick.

    Hogan went missing.

    Jetta is a star.

    I'm not unhappy with our effort away from home.

    I thought we deserved to win but for the umpiring.. early it was the momentum stopping free.  Late it was 10 consecutive free kicks in the last quarter. 

    What else can we do?

    Four point to the AFL tonight. 

    That was as blatant as is gets

    We lack composure. We don’t make selections factoring in the opposition or the conditions. We don’t beat good teams.

    Great effort by most with poor execution. Needed to take our chances in the first half but couldn’t break them or the crowd. Two many that think they are better than they are. Hogan and Petracca time for your talent to be matched with intensity.

    Deserved to lose. 

    Taking out Spargo and not bringing in another crumber, having all those useless inside 50’s with no one to pounce, while Tyson comes in to do some bit part stoppage work in some sort of made up role is just nonsense. 

    Worst part is Port were awful.

    Will the umpires join them in the rooms to sing their [censored] song ?

    I think we will probably scrape into the 8, and lose week one. 

    Too many players who give us nothing under pressure. Jetta and McDonald literally bleed for us, while Petracca, Tyson, Hogan, Neal Bullen etc disappear. 

    Losing Lever was the end of our season. 

    I hope we make finals to get over that mental hurdle, but sadly we are nowhere near good enough to impact in September. 

    A brave effort.

    Utterly disgusting umpiring

    But gee we do some stupid stuff, ie Oscar's 50m penalty when he was three weeks late, to pick one example

    With that loss and seeing as we can’t beat any team with talent and with the run home for other clubs below us I can’t see us getting near the eight now.

    If you follow the Socceroos and Melbourne you seriously need some good counseling.

    Lost that in the first half with so much wasted opportunity. We had them complete on toast but persisted with the long bomb inside 50 to a pack of 10 players system which NEVER works for us. Just dumb footy.

    umpiring sucked bad but we lost that ourselves

    • 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.
