I just said I would prefer 2 of Tim Kelly, Liam Ryan, Petrucelli or Stocker instead of Lever. Not sure where you got that I was rating him. Those r the players we missed out on by taking Lever.

I understand your opinion, here's mine:

Kelly- going home

Ryan- massive flight risk

Petrucelle- bog average skills

Stocker- hardly played, dury out

    Hibbo the easiest turnover you’ll see. Honestly we are painful 

    That was pitiful.

    Pies have scored from our pathetic 9 turnovers. Maybe Goodwin can answer why we have such poorly skilled playing group? What’s our so called great development that Mcartny says we have .. it’s laughable 

    We should actually trade Jack Viney. I have no idea what he offers us.

    Only listening to radio.  Cant watch anymore with the likes of JKH, Oscar & Gus destroying things.

    Sounds like we are back to being turnover kings and a shambles and are only capable of staying in or ahead in a match for one quarter or so at best.

    If Goodwin cant get us close to a half baked Pies team with almost no forward line with 19 rounds behind the team he should walk now and save us the embarrassment for the last few rounds and for the [censored] storm that will be next season.

    Clean half this shitty list out, put anyone in who has half a coaching brain in (Ratten?) and start again in 2020.

    Goody is destroying this club and the careers of at least half a dozen or so very good players with every week that goes by.

    Roos anointed the wrong man in a rush out the door.  What a pitty.

    And our forward line is brimming with talent atm is it?

    Lewis telling Viney a few home truths. 

    Good! Viney is a [censored] footballer. Plays only one way and that's rugby union style trying to run thro ugh everyone.

    0 tackles for Jones in the last 2 matches. Not going to win when our captain is producing [censored] like that. Completely in self preservation mode.

    0 pressure whatsoever, whoever is on Jones knows he isn’t at risk of being caught.

    We might be the turnover kings...

    ... But at least we're KINGS!

    (Sorry, I don't have much else positive to say after that quarter).

    Hahahaha Hibberd

    Watched Hunt run and create an option for Hibberd only to be burnt again for a stupid little inside trick move. Horrible.

    Skill errors are just crippling our good intentions.

    Yep chaos ball. Goodwin’s brilliant game plan which hasn’t worked for a year and relies on winning every clearance and skills we do not possess such as kicking, handballing and foot speed.

    Bizarrely seems like

    left of screen is the goal kicking end. We should of had 5 goals first Q. Would still be a tight game 

    can’t kick for [censored]

    He needs to be dumped from Captaincy as a last ditch effort to wake him up and become a footballer again.

    Agree, try get a late first rounder from Port if we lucky.

    Regardless of anything else, bottom handful are under where they need to be. Melksham (OK, coming back from injury), but Dunkley, Baker, JKH not giving enough and/or turning the ball over.

    How to beat the Dees in 2019?

    1. Put pressure on the Dees

    2. Dees turn it over

    3. You kick a goal

    Simples.

    Hibberd inability to hit a Target is mind boggling.

    Its like ground hog day every week .

    Big effort in the first , then skills constantly let us down and it’s chasing backsides all day after that.

    Vney needs to watch someone like Trent Cotchin on how to play the game and lead his team.

    Our complete inability to change game plans and respond to a team changing tactics on show here. 

    A few players have been very average,  but no attempt to change things up. Move trac into the middle for [censored] sake.

    • 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.
