I love a beer, but hate a hangover like the one I have now.

Lost my phone last night.

    its like having an arm cut off

    It is such a perfect day here in Melbourne for good footy. 

    Like so many, l have learned to restrain and contain any sense of confidence. The scars of failing to do so are many and deep. 

    Yet somehow l have lost my strength today. Against an  injury ridden Doggies team with the Bont (who broke my heart at Dome all those years ago) out of the side and Boyd, l sense a very big win. 

    Our blokes know the score from here and know they have the talent around them. This game will be played above the shoulders and l think the boys will be determined to right their wrongs and make a statement. 

    Dees by 63 (or my last scar from the Saints game will bleed me out). 

    By the way, it is really great to hear so many going out of their way to attend today. It will be a small crowd but let's make a lot of noise. Good luck to us all. ?

    At the MCG where we struggle and lost to the Saints just two weeks ago.

    Today, aside from a a win, I want to see a modified gameplan that works on the G'.  It will take us to the next level.  Its kind of important to be able to win on your home ground.

    I'm finding it quite therapeutic.

    It'll be a different story on Monday when I advise the boss I need another phone.

    And the ground where most of the finals/grand finals are at... HUGE problem if we don't find a way that works there, and quickly.

    It's my 65th birthday today and I have to friggen work because I didn't finish what I started yesterday, so [censored] off,

    What's the best radio station to listen to?

    Going to the game but not sure if its possible to walk away happy. A win doesnt help our chances of making finals because I can't see us beating any teams above us on the ladder. Another game against a bottom 8 team proves nothing and the loss to st.kilda still hurts.

    Yeah it does.  

    Unless you meant a loss doesn't help our chances of making finals.

    Congratulations Doc, you old fart!!  (You're just shy of 3 mths older than me!) 

    Used to love you thumping the ball out of CHB to set me up for some of my goals back in the day!  We were part of a great team back then.  Here's hoping the new breed can replicate it! )

    It’s ok, my wife’s family all support dogs and hate razor more than we do (and think he hates the dogs in return) so it will be quite the conundrum for ‘ol (insert favourite insult here)!

    Heading to the ground with my youngest (nearly 3) today for her first AFL game. She has her demon backpack packed already and is packing her snacks into little ziplock bags, never seen her so organized!

    please the lords of football let her cheer on many goals and get to sing the song at the end of the game today!!! ???

    My unsolicited advice: make sure she has the best day ever, even it the MFC are poo.

    • 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.
