Chocolates to boiled lollies, is there another team in world sport as pathetic as us. I'm now convinced that we will never win a flag in my life time. Seriously mentally weak!!!!!!!

Oscar Mc Turbo is In!!?

It is difficult to be at a footy match at the moment, with OMac selected.

Not sure if we can take another dependency ride on his incomparable idleness at a snail's pace.

It was an effort in score minimisation. His coaching performance against Richmond reflected a coach with zero confidence in the potential for a win. 

That says a lot about our leadership atm. 

Regretfully, the leadership is missing and the waning confidence is really the only thing we are likely to see, this year. Its consequences are already on the ladder and are there, to stay. We need to send out - right around the country - emissaries who work in tandem (for confirmatory purposes on a recruit) to identify and nab talent wherever it may lie. The profiles of a great recruiting drive are widespread but we can all imagine just what such personnel will possess - and what limitations they will exhibit. This needs to be matched with a more sustained and in-depth player development process including onfield exposure in our re-building processes and timeframe.

Ha! What makes anybody think we're going to beat Hawthorn?

Never in doubt, ya muppet.

Childish response to a legitimate concern that lingers year in and year out. Two wins for the year is well under par for our Team and its playing stocks so an expression and encouragement for assurance or investment in the short-term future may reduce the stroke count significantly.

At any rate, I am delighted with the win today as are many who had earlier concerns of this game. However, one rainbow a successful year does not make and if left as an isolate, the short-term future might well look glum as well. My shame, by the way, is reserved for far weightier matters on occasion and cannot be judged by those pre-occupied with labelling theories. Good night.

  • 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.
