    Hehe, I found a box of LEGO that I kept from the 80s and unleashed that on the pests... I mean children the other day. Then I jumped on eBay and bought up a few vintage sets that I always wanted as a kid and never had! Did I take it too far good doctor Dee?!

    Living vicariously through one’s offspring is a parent’s prerogative. Especially when it comes to Lego and brainwashing (I mean influencing) in regards to football. My girls favourite songs right now are ‘Happy Dog’ by Justine Clarke and ‘Grand Old Flag’.

    It’s a good thing Oscar isn’t playing on him then.

    The tonic for my Game Morning nerves has worked a treat since the Geelong game.

    Find a song and let it repeat for 5 hours.

    Mine is High Hopes by Panic! At the Disco.

    Hoping for another decent lead at the first break and making the Swans chase the rest of the game.

    No. This is completely normal. My kids are still on Duplo - can’t wait till they’re big and dexterous enough for real lego! 

    Mine wanted to see if mars was still up and where Venus was. Then the trampoline. At 6am. Now watching the PGA.

    All these finals permutations are getting confusing. Remind me again, are we cheering for or against Sydney today?

    So nervous. 

    This is the most important clash we’ve been involved in in a decade. 

    God help my heart.

    Pretty clear the early game day posters have kids under 5. ?

    Daring to believe we can get this done, lock a spot in the final-lys and start to hone our finals style game knowing that we’ll be there. 

    Hope it stays dry for the ladies.

    Here in London , got the alarm set for 6.20 am. If we get off to a quick start , ill probably wake the neigbbours . If we get off to a slow start , I’ll probably wake the neighbors——. Have positive feelings about the result , we win by 18 points ??

    Great challenge today. With the swans experience they know how to win these high pressure games and we generally don’t. Win this and it’s another step to developing the mental strength required to be one of the top teams.

    I was at Big W Saturday and they were having a sale on good lego sets. One guy bought one of the lego train sets.?

    Crunch time!  I'm very 'on edge', but I think we will stand tall.

    My MFCSS is knocking down the door at a furious rate. I believe in 14 wins but maybe today will be that loss. I don't know.

    Today won't assure us of a finals birth, but by crikey, it will go very close, especially after the Dogs upset the Roos in the curtain raiser to our game.

    Dees by at least 1 point.

    Had a dream midweek that we were down 44-1. I'm a tad nervous about how we start this game.

    This is how big today is -

    If we beat Swans and the Dogs upset the Kangas...  we are in the finals.  

    UNLESS...   Geelong win their last two by approximately 180 points combined, and we lose our last two by approximately 50 points combined.

    Oh damn I just triggered my MFCSS.

    • 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.
