Can't say I feel sorry for the Tigers.  They've had their day in the sun. 

They are lucky to have Lynch but they traded out good players to fit his $ in.  Depth or lack thereof may come back to bite them. 

Having Rance and Riewoldt out will certainly challenge their game plan.  They also have Houli and Caddy out for a few weeks.  Their next month is:  Giants, Port, Sydney, Demons.  They could easily lose a few of those.  They don't have much time to adjust their game plan to cover injuries.  Doubt they'll make top 4.  All the better for us!

On every measure their game last night was worse than ours last week.  Will be a very interesting ANZAC Eve game.

    They’ve had two blessed years on the injury front.  The weight of averages would say that it wouldn’t go on forever.

    Get the delight but we have a few issues ourselves. Best we get those sorted as we could have played the Narabeem colts side and lost Saturday the way we played .

    I can't believe they kept him on the field with a potentially serious injury.  He kept re-injuring it during the game.

    Of course he will. If it was Max Gawn who did this exact injury he would be out for 12 years

    4 weeks, you'd reckon he will be back round 7 at best

    Steven May will be slapping the hell out of that hand and wrist if Riewoldt plays.

    • 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.
