If Oliver, Viney and Brayshaw get on top and the umpires shed their bias, we are seriously in this.

Yep, it's what has me quietly confident for the second half.  They lifted in that last ten minutes, so hopefully that has given them confidence.

I agree with others that we have been well beaten in some areas tonight, but the fact we are still in it is a real positive.  Our forward line has looked much more open which has allowed us to kick more goals and have those opportunities.  If the three you mentioned above continue to lift then we can get more of those chances in the second half.

    If Jones is to play it must be up forward - useless elsewhere.

    Hibberd is gone. Hore showing something.

    Wagners will never be any good.

    OMac just horrible.

    Your last two statements i agree with. I haven't given up on Hibb's yet though.

    Had a bit of a shocker.

    I've felt Frosty hasn't been too bad so far tonight, apart from one kicking blunder.  He has generally done some good things down back.

    U pairing is [censored]. Boundaries can’t throw the ball in. Field umpires always looking for a soft over the shoulder to the Swans and if we get a free they bring it back everytime allowing the Swans to manup. Front on contact to our forwards doesn’t exist. Anyway we are still in it. Petracca stand up mate!

    Sure, but the forward line isn't really the problem, it's up the other end of the ground where we've been leaking goals all season. Even against Essendon we managed 18 goals - which, incidentally was the 3rd highest score in the whole round.

    Long bombs i50 not hurting us as much. A few are thankfully looking shorter

     

    My God were in front!!!

    Did the umpires read demonland during the break? 

    A free 15 out from OUR goal ?

    That ump will be sacked

    Front contact now but not in 1st quarter? Umpires are straight out idiots

    We simply can’t let the ball into our defensive 50 because it’s a certain goal. 

     

    Let’s put Spargo on the mark again.

    • 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.
