Next two weeks will determine whether we have had an improved year or not, to improve you need to better your position on the ladder, I don't care who you beat to do this, at this stage we are looking at 9th and out by a game.  last year 9th out by percentage.  

Our ability to score has improve, but our ability to defend has gone backwards 

Agreed 100%.

Losing Lever so early was a huge knockout punch. 

But at least we have discovered a role for Frosty

    Not by the margins we have this year, which is why losing to the Saints at home was such a dark day

    I said "better" opponents. This year we've beaten no "better" opponents.

    Adelaide and Nought were “Better” than the MFC last year

    Too many people went into Sunday's game expecting Melbourne would roll Sydney just because.

    Look at the facts.

    Sydney has an organised defence.

    Melbourne struggles against an organised defence.

    Ipso facto, Melbourne would struggle against Sydney.

    Including the media experts.

    And yet they’ll chew you up and spit you out, when things don’t go the way they think they should.

    A lot of you guys are a bit guilty of drinking your own bath water. It would be nice if you could own up to some of these pre game statements as mistakes. Sydney are no pushovers and we waltzed in thinking we would win, but didn’t.

    By all means point them out.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
