Trac you absolute star.  That's the way to grab a game by the scruff of its neck!

FFS Jones.   If you can't see a forward target then why call for the handball receive?  Then kick to nothing?

This is our most senior player, what hope do we have if that's the example?

2 goal turnaround FFS

Also he was running to his non-preferred side which was silly.

 

Take away their momention  

That is EXACTLY what we needed and need Petracca to be. Someone to take the game by the scruff of the neck when its in the balance.

    Why the hell do we drop off so much? 

    Its all mental.... need to fix the culture and expectation to what we do for the whole game, not in a burst.

    Is it premature to call Omac in for Smith next week...?

    Disposals been so sloppy

    Our kicking skills remain our biggest issue. Terrible

    We still can’t find a tall forward.

    Tmac still can’t mark the ball, and Jackson is too raw.

    Thank god for Petracca and Oliver

    It was meant for HB, but he wasn't expecting and ran forward.  lack of knowing your teammate yet.

    Nope, Smith has been pretty disappointing in my books

    What happened to looking before kicking? Disappointed by the blind possessions that quarter. 

     

    1st = quarter 2018

    So far everything after that = 2019

    They are killing us in the centre and this should be closer.

    • 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.
