Although I hate Essendon its probably a better result if they win. Ideally Sydney will be out of contention by the time we play them.

    Buddy is a strange bird. Rarely takes a one grab mark. It's like he wants to tap it forward in the marking contest to grab it second time

    Ridiculous that wasn't a free to Hurley

    Would have been ridiculous were the opponent not Buddy

    And for the second time tonight Hurley looked as if he was about to burst into tears.

    Can't ever like Essendon winning, but it suits me just fine if Sydney get the late-season stumbles.

    We'll beat the Swans on our day, on pure merit whatever the circumstances, but for the comfort of it I'd like to have a couple of indicators in advance that we'll crush them completely and I wont have to stress too much.

    How good is Mc-Tip? Great to watch

    Cameron Ling is so painful. Thanks God he was smart enough to realise he wasn’t up to coaching

    Wasn’t that a slam tackle by Parish?   Ball free already, and victim’s head slammed into the turf. No comment on ABC radio. Anything said on TV?

    All legal according to Ling. “ One motion BT, one motion”. 

    They are everyone’s second team again.

    Not Christian like, but will Christian like?   My get he will like especially if Bummers win.

    So you can bang an opponents head into the ground if it is in one action?

    With Sydney's downturn in form, this draw is opening up for us slightly. Win tomorrow and we're still in it up to our necks.

    That was a Luke Tapscott special from Haywood on the boundary line. A kick like that out on the full ended Tapscott's career.

    Tapscott was a poor footballer - way too top heavy

    Sydney getting peeled apart by ordinary sides 2 weeks in a row

    They're a massive risk of falling out of the 8

    I'd be shocked if we don't smash them based on how they're playing. Just gotta take care of Adelaide first.

    Essendon's 3 so-called big name recruits have shows a bit this year. Stringer, Saad and D Smith.

    Port Adelaide's scattergun recruits have done little this year. Watts, Rockcliff, Thomas, Trenners and Dom Barry.

    • 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.
