Season is on the line. Win this and we have some breathing room. Lose and we're probably one loss away from missing finals.

Tx but its gone.

Our changes will be 10 players.

Just send in casey

 

Imagine if you went to your first game and got one of those donated scarves - bin on the way out.

Wish it was that easy for me

Time to pray for miracle, ladies and gents.  We're going to need it.  Pray to God, Buddha, Allah.... whoever you please.  Divine intervention is required.

 

Someone buy a gun and shoot Lewis


Just can’t see us winning 

We look absolutely spent 

Saints up by 50+ on uncontested possessions

42 point win to the Aints coming up

So many players out of form it is unfathomable. Oliver?

Feel sick.

Yep. So many dejected faces here. A lot of bleeding in the stands.

We don’t make come backs. We should be praying we don’t have a percentage battering because that’s usually what happens in last quarters when we are losing


I long for six weeks ago when it was hard to find a player to drop. Currently hard to make a case for half the team to be retained next week.

This is the worst - feel like I’m on a hiding to nothing by watching the last quarter. At least in the good old days when we were awful, you could watch knowing the game was well out of reach and couldn’t get worse, and just watch in the hope that one of your talented kids gave you some reason to smile.

Winning seems unlikely, small mercies don’t cut it anymore and it can get a whole lot worse. I am definitely a sucker for punishment. Let’s go.


What an absolute disgrace.

We've completely reverted to the bomb it long to the top of the square on the MCG. We don't switch enough and our forwards don't look like taking a contested mark.

At three quarter time, it's game over against a team that's won 2.5 games for the year.

Gawn and Viney have tried hard to lift the team, but not enough leadership once again.

Has Brayshaw had an effective disposal since quarter time? I don't think so.

    We will miss the 8 again. We on track for 12 wins after this

    Based on this performance the can you see 12 wins ?

    We cannot defend a wide ground.

    A loss and our season is over. Sure umps have been poor, but christ, we have been so much worse.

    All coaches and players need to be put on notice, particularly Goodwin.

    My god this club is staggering. 

    They just can’t get theiit [censored] together and always seem to stuff up when it counts  

    I am so disappointed in this club AGAIN.

     

     

    Poor Petty :( he’s been horrible and will know it. He is gonna be devastated.

    I know we have played poorly but the umpires have destroyed us at times. Like last week. Anyone who disputes the umpires impact has simply not played footy. It can seriously impact your momentum and confidence and mess with players minds. Salem played a text book effort and was pinged. Afl need to stop games ruined by whistles and crazy 50m penalty calls.

    In his defence Petracca does look like his working hard to have an impact at the moment 

    Tracc far from our worst..too many others just can't finish (Brayshaw, Lewis, Jones) or find enough of the pill (Hannan, Tyson etc).

    Goody has made a slow team slower, tried a failed 3 tall forward line far too long with no crumber front & square at all (Spargo) and brought in a first gamer who unfortuntely isn't close to AFL yet, instead of Frost, making an already dodgy backline even dodgier.

    Sorry Goody but you couldn't have done a worse job last 2 weeks and have let the club down badly.

    Amazing how we were flying as of only 3 games ago. Talk about complacency from all player's and coaches. All were stuck in cruise control admiring their own work.

    • 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.
