While we’re there, Hogan can line up at CHB and Garlett can assume the role of lock down defender in the back pocket.

TMac is now a forward. A gun forward. 

Yep 0and 3 v a schoolboy side

    We need to be careful not to go too tall and slow against the swans.  Moving  Fritsch back is a good idea can mark and has some pace. Pedo would be a mistake (as would introducing Weid).  Frost has the speed, body and aggression to go with Buddy and Omac is more than a match for Rohan.

     Didn't you know OMac was Polly Farmer and Leigh Mathews reincarnated?

    He should be. Hasn't played since rd 16 and only acted as the runner in the reserves game last week.

    How did Bugg play over the weekend? Would be ironic if I’m the same week Gaff gets a huge suspension for an off the ball punch that Bugg returns against Sydney! 

    Really hope Melksham is good to go, our distribution into the forward 50 suffers without him.

    Wagner for J Smith

    T Smith for JKH

    Oscar Baker must be close and then we would be the only team with two Oscars

    Not gonna happen. OMac is in the team, he’s not going anywhere. 

    Wagner for Smith

    Melks for Vanders/JKH (either one unlucky)

    For info:  Tom Morris 'On the Couch' just said words like don't be surprised if J Hunt lines up for the Dees against the Swans.  Roosy broadly concurred with this approach, saying something like Hunt for Smith speed for speed makes sense ....... followed by the qualification if Hunty's had enough time in the VFL.

    I'd be hitting the Swans with speed this week.  I'd risk a rusty Hunt.  

    In: Hunt and Melksham

    Out: Smith and JKH 

    Bernie is the other who is in trouble.  He was poor against poor opposition on the weekend.

    Not fussed about Hannebery or Rohan.

    Both were stinking it up before their respective injuries. Hannebery hasn't had time to heal his body, the Swans have admitted they're going to effectively rush him back into the seniors because they want him there and not playing NEAFL.

    I reckon on Peddo or maybe Weideman and Macdonald goes down back with bro. We have the scoring power with Hogan and Weideman......... 

    Something for all of us to say “TMac isn’t going down back full time, TMac isn’t going down back full time, TMac isn’t going down back full time...”

    He might be used as a lose and sneak down occasionally when needed to clog up space but he is a full time fwd now.

    Yes and yes

    Rohan would be the danger man if he was available 

    To the Swans? He fluctuates between mediocre and deplorable for fine, with these tiny moments of decent.

    Rohan and Henneberry definitely back this week.Grundy possible. Add that to recent incusions of McVeigh and Jack and the alarm bells are ringing.

    McVeigh and Jack played against Collingwood and if Collingwood had a key defender to play on Buddy Sydney would have lost. Plus both of them are past it.

    Rohan and Hannebery were both woefully out of form before their injuries and they're going to rush Hannebery back into the seniors on their own admission because they're lacking leadership (which is covering for the truth, which is their kids are faltering).

    Sydney deserves respect, but in context.

    • 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.

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
