Clearly two very different versions of holding the ball. 

Who is 35 GW$?   Just throwing elbows to the larynx then kneed same guy in the head when on the ground. Dirty dog. 

They get the Greene light from the AFL don't they.

    Maybe, but these constant elbows to the ribs and the kidneys are unnecessary. 

    So pay a free. But don’t tell the players the rules, it is not right

    They are just plucking decisions out of their [censored]. Razor Ray the worst.

    WTF was that holding free just on the siren?

    Looked like a 50/50 or the Lion being held. Was that the showman Chamberpot who paid that?

    Tomlinson watch:

    5 possessions and just directly cost his side a goal with a kick into the man on the mark.

    Me thinks he’s mentally checked out.

    I hope they are not getting him to play wing (as has been reported in the media), has been very poor so far.

    While he is better than some of our fringe players it will be a terrible decision if it takes our ability to pay for a quality player in the future away. I can't see where he fits into our team.

    Agree with you there.  But just because it 'has always been part of the game" does not justify actions which have nothing to do with the game.  If I wanted to watch boxing or karate, I wouldn't go to the footy.

    It’s a physical game. Niggle has always been part of it

    Certainly a physical game but why should good players in particular have to put up with incessant jabs (Essendon excepted), punches and elbows. 

    Times do change - how many games would Jack Dyer or Ted Whitten or Leigh Matthews play in a year nowadays?

    Don’t understand this game anymore

    Lions being a bit Melbournian dominating inside 50s but only scoring behinds. 

    Bombing it in for the GW$ to take simple marks.

    That is an interesting question, i am not against an Umpire calling a free. But it is Not his job to Coach players on how to play the game.

    Lions may as well kick the ball along the ground when entering fwd 50.

    • 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.
