"this joint" . . . as in the MFC?

Nowhere near as bad as Linton Street I would have thought. 

That's a debatable subject.

    Poisoned chalice this joint.

    Like the nose beer, rapey thing they've got happening in Seaford/Moorabin is good for his career.

    Ex Melbourne footballers who want a viable successful career in football after they retire go elsewhere like to Hawthorn. Ex other club footballers who want a viable career in football also go elsewhere. Unless there is an overs pot of gold on offer to offset what would likely be a truncated career.

    Nothing stopping you from going somewhere else

    I never said he should go to the saints.
    It's a strange decision.
    Both clubs are basket cases.

    I would have thought 12 flags and 12 wooden spoons compares favourable against 1 flag and 27 wooden spoons.

    They've won a flag more recently than MFC. And played in GFs more recently than us ... came very close to winning one too. Unlike MFC's 2 grand final debacles.

    Pfft .... Ancient history those flags.
    I'd argue they don't count since we went from VFL to AFL.

    So whats the latest with Roughy, have Goody, Lewey, Toddy and Mahoney met with him and made an offer? 

    Some muppet on the interweb suggested he might go to the Saints. Last time I checked you don't need 4 x premierships to light dwarfs on fire, bed underage school girls and lose a Grand Final in October.

    Roughy is champ - no doubt about

    He’s also been through some tough personal [censored]. So apart from knowing a bit about footy he also knows a bit about resilience 

    Bonus.  He seems to be a decent bloke

    Yep.  I’d have him as a forward line coach in a flash!

    Yep from me too as above.

    Saw a VFL game where he gave some coaching to one of his opponents which seemed to

     improve their performance. This was mentioned by commentators.

    • 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.
