    Garlett can not be retained after that.... 0 tackles for a speedy small forward, I mean come on man, get serious and respect the jumper.

    Spargo isn’t ready. I said a few weeks ago he wasn’t strong enough to stick tackles. Today it was his lack of composure and inability to kick 40m. Just not ready.

    It won’t matter who comes in.. we cannot beat sides who keep the ball away from us. West Coast are number 1 for it. We will not give a yelp in the last 2 games.

    Am I the only one that thought JKH was pretty good today?  Retains his spot easily I would have thought. 

    We should have rested Hogan against Gold Coast. I hope we don’t end up regretting it...

    You can put in your whipping boys, or go for the ones who actually ARE likely outs.

    Garlett, Hunt are definites. Hunt was atrocious, and looked pretty sore. Garlett was back to his absolute worst.

    Melksham and Hibberd the obvious ins. Gee we missed Melksham.

    Then we need to trade Hogan. Four set shots at getable distance and angles two go through and game won. None go through we loss. He is never going to deliver on his potential. Just hadn’t got the right stuff!

    Yup. With a more settled 22 and in a better overall game I think he'd make way, but man there were some disgracefully poor demons today. Garlett and Hunt head of that class. Pedo ANB in the gun. But JKH won't be dropped.

    Hunt was really poor and is injured, Spargo fired blanks and Jeffy was at his very worst. I don't think we can drop both Jeffy AND Spargo but they both deserve it. 

    Are either of Melksham or Hibberd ready to go, injury wise?

    not ready or not good enough? wtf is with our decision to recruit 172cm spuds with no tank

    I believe hogan has no confidence, should be dropped or rested, Garlett lets us down time and again, jkh is pushed off the ball to easily. Hunt was not a patch on last year, someone has told him not to run any more.

    In : melky, hibbo and hannan, not sure on hunt. Pedo to ffwd

    • 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.
