Good on ya Nev and well done and best of luck to the debutantes.  May you have a win first up.

Anyone else find these elbow bumps etc a bit of a futile exercise, considering the number of sweaty, salivating players in packs, tackling opponents and all touching the same footy?

    If the hoarders return all the toilet paper will things go back to normal?

    No. I'm either going to need all of it to either cry into if we lose tonight, or (as @Bitter but optimistic would say) give myself a jolly good flogging should we win.

    Bruise free football coming up for both teams... and fair enough. 

    There is genuinely no point playing.... perhaps someone can tell me what political mechanics allowed the football season to begin anyway.

    Leave it all out on the park tonight boys! Break a leg & she'll be right to go by rnd 2

     

    Go dees. 

    Thanks to all posters and huge thanks to Andy for keeping demonland going.

    I am always positive during the preseason. Exciting we get another one. By golly we will be fit!

    Go redleggers

    Except you of course @Chook in Perth

    Two points and WC go coast to coast from kickouts without us getting a touch


    Bit late to the party but there’s nothing but strange feelings. Haven’t felt like this since the merger game in 96. 

    Poor kicking hurting us right now. 

    Nothing has changed from last year. Turnovers, short kicks to opposition. Unfunctional forward line.

    Oh no. That game i was very angry and [censored] off. This game is a lot more insignificant for me.

    OPPO waltzing out of the backline all day

    Social distancing in our forwardline going strong. Nobody getting near it.

    • 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.
