In: Viney, Hannan

Out: Kent and maybe Tyson. If not Tyson then I think Spargo out. Hannan should play finals. He is very dangerous around the goals.

    My word, Spargo?

    Not a fan of short blokes Jaded?

    I’m a big fan of his but finals is another step up and he really does look tired. Plus physically he will struggle. Hannan is more dangerous playing up forward I think. 

    If Spargo plays I won’t be upset  I just think Hannan is better than him currently

    For those that state we should drop Spargo because he looks tired. I think it’s because he’s playing footy and runs himself ragged. No chance he doesn’t play.

    So Spargo plays if Tyson's not out? Not exactly like-for-like there.

    Lets see how bad Tysons arm is first and which bone it is...  having a plate inserted might get him up for the game.

    Spargo I was leaning towards dropping as he looked cooked in the 1st half,  but we have a full two week break and I liked his second half, and also we may have lost two players.

    I think if Tyson is out they’ll play Trac more in the middle which leaves a hole at half forward which I think Hannan can fill very well. 

    I’m not against playing Spargo at all, but I want Hannan in. If Tyson is ok he will definitely play which makes it hard to fit in Hannan as well given Viney is an automatic in.

    I think Spargo is underrated a little round these parts.  He had a hand in a number of goals today with his crumbing work.  As others have stated, with Kent and Tyson both going out, there is no chance that Spargo doesn't play.

    Chook got it, we won’t go too crazy with the changes I would’ve thought unless someone plays an absolute blinder for Casey. 

    Spargo was much better today though someone needs to talk to him about his set shot routine. He doesn’t take a moment to breathe and relax his body.

    What a great run from vanders to be entrenched in that side. Amazing.

    If Tyson is done then Viney and Hannan.

    JKH survives as he is serviceable and is more use than Bugg.

    Absolutely agree.  He played a really good game and would be considered a lock for the 22 unless injured

    He has 2 weeks to refresh, he played a very good game today. He always provides a contest.

    • 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.
