    Lifetime ban for these two for touching hands. Hope they sanitised afterwards ?

    Lever is so well spoken. Future captain written all over him. Hard to believe how young he still is.

    Good interview, but i put that down to the fact that Jake is such a good media performer. The stand out part for me is from 9:20 mins in where he said we didnt play the Melbourne way in round 1. You couldnt possibly be less accurate. The problem was we played EXACTLY the "Melbourne way". Win from the bounce and bomb it long . The whole league knows that is what we do. With the incredible quality of West Cokes backline that was never going to work. In fact it failed practically every match last year as well.

    The "Melbourne way" he talks about is not the way we play.

    Change or keep losing matches we shouldn't.

    Let's be positive and assume that he meant there is a new Melbourne way but we slipped into old habits and din't play the Melb way.

    Just a question , Sue, if we didn't play the way that we are supposed to, what was different that happened after Qtr time? 

    Because we actually kept with them, didn't we, for the rest of the game score wise, which unfortunately i didn't see?

    Uhm he did talk about the “connection” to forwards so they know the “Melbourne way” they want to play (won the contest and connect to the forwards) but they played the “Melbourne way” they have played for so many years besides 1 under Goodwin.

    Love the photos as well    thanks    any of Bennell or Kossy ?  

    hoping we have two great players here !

     

    was bored with Social Isolation  feeling better looking to football Not sure how I will feel about the season 2020. The first round was a write off, for us and at least two other sides.

     

    Go Dees

    • 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.
