    3 from 3 (I refuse to count the Essendon game as we played next to no one in it, plus it doesn't suit my narrative...)

    Pretty much no injuries (fingers crossed for AVB and Weid)

    Some encouraging signs, especially with the defensive unit

    Gawny made a successful comeback

    Fritsch kicks 5, Milkshake 4

    We'll roll the Eagles by 10 goals in Round 1.

    Bring it on!

    Always good to beat those ugly brown and golds, in anything.

    I’ll take credit for this stirring victory.
     

    When I ran into the boys at the airport yesterday, my inspirational words to Jake Lever were obviously passed onto the rest of the group, lighting the fire in the belly on their quest for glory. 
     

    You’re welcome...

    A good hitout. There is a lot of competition for spots on the flight west for R1.

    Couldn't watch any of the game. A poster talked about how good defence looks.

    What role did May have in this re organising etc. Same query for lever? 

    Thoughts?

    BOG for me just ahead of Fritter. Lever really impressed and Lockhart is a beauty.

    Bedford looked dangerous

    Bedford looked impressive from limited minutes, will certainly give Pickett a run for his money for that small forward role if not rd 1 early into the season

    Ball movement infinitely better with Langdon and Tomlinson running the wings

    Wouldnt mind 10 of Bayley Fritsch

    Was great seeing May looking happy out there and the back 6 settled

    Lockhart massively impressive down back, great composure with ball in hand and should make his way into the rd 1 side

    As hard as it is being optimistic about this club at times, this preseason has been exceptional and the boys have set themselves up well for a good crack at the season. Will have nowhere to hide and no one to blame if this all goes belly up.

    Go Dees!

    Defensive setups looked vastly superior to last season. Hawks might have got out the back once in the entire game. Lockhart looks at home down back and for me he is best 22.

    Not all perfect, but it didn't have to be, and we did something we haven't done in a long time, take control and run a game out! We actually look fit. So many positives. Fritter, Tomlinson, Trac, Langdon, Lockhart, Lever, Milkshake. Like what I see of Jackson and Bedford.

    I think we'll beat the Eagles in R1. We're coming in with some form and by the looks of it self belief. Can't wait!

    WOW! Tomlinson and Langdon it is amazing to have two very talented ready made players extra experience to boost our stocks.

    That is what you call depth. 

    Jackson,  Lockhart and Bedford   future  looked good for us.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
