Our decision making and skills are killing us. Midfield getting beaten, but where in front if our midfield lifts in the second half we should win.

    Half time couldn't have come soon enough.

    Time to readjust and realize not everything is one for the highlight reel.

    Our short passes have been criminal.

    If we don't fix it (and improve our inside 50s), we won't be so lucky, because I doubt the Hawks will miss those chances in the 2nd half.

    We've been given a lifeline here. We don't really deserve that lead, but we have to make it count!

    From our defensive 50 that quarter most times we kicked it out back to them. Need to run it out with handball or kick to a one on one, not an outnumber.

    Classic clash of game styles.

    Lot of players need to lift a lot of work to be done yet.

    ANB Dom and Gus too.

    Forgot Tyson. I think ANB May be on Smith who has SFA

    They’re tagging Gus. 

    We need more from Milkshake and Trac. They’re giving us SFA.

    Oliver did not stage. Commentators are morons.

    It's all over Twitter. Fox footy saying he dived, AFL Nation asking people if he flopped. 

    It’s Whorethorn pressure we have to beat. This is not Home and Away Footy...

    We can get better

    Anyone who thinks that Oliver flopped, I’m very happy for them to stand with legs evenly apart in front of me and I’ll hit them front on.

    Tyson is so bad.. jogging to contests and when in the action, looks slow. Vanders looks stuffed!

    Hard to fathom we are winning. I dont think we have plkayed anywhere near our best. Lets hope we do our 3 quarter blitz and not ay pn their terms.

    Make space. Hit the targets. Don’t kick to the outnumbered player. 

    Do the above and we will win.

    I agree was basically a basketball charging foul situation.  I don't think it should have been a free in AFL football, but it would have been very hard for Oliver to stay upright.

    Would rather be in our position than theirs. Run them into the ground this quarter.


    Anyone wondering if Mitchell will win the Brownlow- I can confirm the umpires notice him.

    Lucky to be in front, need to lift across the board really 

    Yep! We're playing very ordinary footy, and we're winning (thanks to Hawks wasting chances), just imagine if we get our ship together!

    Oh well, we are ahead. Melksham and Hannan need to lift. And Tyson is useless

    the Hawks setup took the running early and they have controlled most of thre play IMO.

     

    I'm glad that Goody hasn't shown his hand YET.  by making panic moves...  I feel like we've started to adjust to the hawks setup and intensity.

     

    I think we can lift from here... but as Lew said, we have to get in harder & lower for the ball, and win the contests... bang more bodies D's.

    • 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?
