Neal-Bullen continues to be a chain killer.  Every period of good clean possession ends when he gets it.

It's either a fumble or a ridiculous attempt at a handball.

 

He’s doing ok. Hibberd and Vanders look to be battling. I hope they play Hore in the second half. Spargo also AWOL.

 

However, one big positive have been Langdon and Tomlinson, especially in their roles:

30 disposals and 11 marks between them roaming up the wings.  Absolutely what we've been crying out for.

Disposal is a little shaky at times but, again, that can be forgiven a little due to the time of the year and conditions. Great pick ups for the club.

    Yes some familiar Weid and Anb footy. 
     

    Langdon is the real deal.  Fritsch is ready to kick 4-5!
     

    Lockhart is a lock for round 1 imo.

    What happened to vanders says he was subbed off with injury on AFL Site

    The AFL website does that all the time.  Says they're injured, then two minutes later they're back on the field.  It's annoying.

    ANB's tank still strong, getting to a lot of contests

    more than ever, but he still has no polish and that hurts us as a team.  We are so light on for skilled players.

    If we're going to improve we can carry players with sub-par skills.

    What in gods name is that free for???

    That umpire was stolen by gypsies as a child. The gypsies realised he was no good and left him in the forest for the bears to raise.

    The bears rejected him and wouldn't even eat him. He had no proper upbringing and developed neither acceptable social skills nor the ability to interact with decent folk. The AFL saw his potential to be a field umpire where his background and skill set wouldn't be any sort of hindrance. 

    Here he is tonight making soft decisions leading to a Hawthorn goal. Should we expect anything different ??? Hell no.

    He’s off getting some WD 40 for rust.

     

    Langdon while good, his disposal by foot has been poor. Tomlinson has been good.

    Lockhart BOG for me. Has been stiff by these maggots.

    The game has been very sloppy though. Play like this against WC and we'll get slaughtered.

    Yea I’m not watching the game just reading updates on here and checking AFL Site, so there is nothing wrong with him

    AFL site saying Vanders injured. Update?

    Anyone think we rest Gawn and May for the second half?  Or do we give them another quarter?

    Maxy running laps must be done for the match

    Maxxy was doing laps at ht , being rested for Jackson

    Disposal has been worse than Langdon, both getting to good positions and providing an outlet.

    Vanders hurt his foot. Kicked it into someone and saw him grab it straight away.

    It’s a pretty ordinary looking game. It’s a good physical hit out but I’m not seeing too much to get excited about in our style yet bar real endeavour.

    FFS!


    Tomlinson missing targets but Langdon kicking over his shoulder. Thats [censored]. May trying to drill passes too low and intercepted.

    • 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.
