IF anyone is at the game, and still has any enthusiasm at all, who is playing back up ruck to Max?  (Serious question so don’t  say Spargo)

I know Melksham took at least one ruck contest.

As well as either kicking or setting up our entire score.

How is it possible for that to be the case when he doesn't even seem to be having a particularly good game?

    Listening to Pert today on the MFC podcast he is 100% Goody is the right coach... Bartlett was the same not long ago... it’s hard to keep the faith.

    Remember, though - they're asking for faith and patience. Another 5, 6, 7 or 8 years. That's all!

    It's all just wrist slashing if you ask me. 

    You're all overreacting. 

    I think you're right. I mean what were we expecting with OMac out injured????

    Where's Oliver? Please don't tell me he's injured.

    He’s there.  He’s just decided it’s better for his career to stay away from the ball.

    Maybe Pert and Bartlet are not the right guys also

    Disgusting performance! That's what happens when you put your worst team out on the park. T.Mac is our most important player without him we are a disgrace.

    This would have to be one of the worst games of football by Melbourne Ive seen in the last 50 years.

    They must have given up.

    They clearly have not tried. Swans intent evidenced by their fierce tackling ......its night and day.

    Does the job.

    You could see it on their faces when they ran out onto the ground. Petracca looked utterly disinterested.

    • 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.
