Will there be a training training session at 10am Thursday? If there is I'm going. Do you know if there is Saty?

    Looking at Seven news last night it looked they had a run on Monday morning so I am guessing they might be training tomorrow morning.

    A few rounds into last season and I couldn’t see him going around again (2019) but here we are. He is going to raise a lot of money for the AFL this season.

    Cancelled due to lack of interest?  (Or, just a lack of interest on the part of our intrepid reporters??)

    When things are quiet, Ben Guthrie is our reporter and tweeting the players are doing a bit of top up conditioning work at the end of training. 

    He also said Viney out there with no strapping on knee but still not 100%.

    Can't believe you'd play a player not 100% in the early rounds.

    Just baffling.

    Got there early to see the rehab group come out first, Lever, Louis, Petty, Jeffy, Hore, Viney and to my dismay May! No AVB, JKH or J Smith.

    the main group then appeared and thankfully May joined them immediately. Viney joined the main group after about 30 minutes running and exercising with the rehab group. He looks to be moving freely and was OK in the ball drills but who knows. Saw JSmith walking around not in running gear, not limping but not doing any rehab.

    Max had plenty of bandages on his leg but looked in good form. Plenty of one on one aerial drills. T Smith and Baker back in full training. Hore joined the main group after 30 odd minutes in rehab. So it was Lever, Louis, Petty and Jeff fulltime rehab.

    Melchum looked fit and was impressive in the one on one drills. Two Poms stood near me when the game simulation was on and they were talking amongst themselves trying to work out what game it was, how the off side rule was working, it’s like rugby but different and that the blues were trouncing the whites. When one said he was going to go to google to find out what sport it is I thought I better intervene; there is no off side, 360 degrees, you can go anywhere, the aim is to kick the ball through those tall posts over there and yes it is a full contact sport. Not sure what they made of it all. Then it was time to leave. Any questions I will try to answer.

    They will have had nine months to find a replacement so I would hope they find a good one.

    Get the Hawthorn bloke

    $cully - busted, broken, forgotten...back by round 2

    Wingard - initially our for 4-6, back in 2

    Mitchell - thought to be out for the entire season, likely will return if finals are in the offing (and it’s Hawthorn, OF COURSE finals are a better than even money chance)

    like how he had O'Meara up for the final ? or how half their backline has been missing for ages ?

    I think the clubs with more mature players over the years give us a biased assessment of fitness staff like they are miracle workers. Wingard playing is hardly a miracle, and Scully has yet to perform at AFL level again. so we will see. same with Mitchell.

    I assume you and @dazzledavey36 have your resumes in?

    There was nothing wrong with Viney, did whole session

    It was a first 'proper' game for everybody on Saturday, the only one not to make a mess was Salem

    I'd actually love an @dazzledavey36 training report that mirrored his emotions from a game day thread.

    Someone like Billy Stretch misses a target and he can go off his rocker, then Clayton Oliver beats three players to a ground ball and he declares him the greatest player of all time... and so on.  It would be bloody brilliant.

    Get down there, dazzle.  Training needs you!

    Yes, just like last season when you said Viney was fine before he was shut down for 12 weeks.

    Ben Guthrie said VIney didn't look 100%.

    • 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.
