That was 4 quarters of absolutely magnificent footy.

*Insert OTT hyperbole here*

 

Our kids played really, really well, and geez hasn’t Trac arrived.

Weed was a genuine target on the lead as well. I loved his whole game. Great signs.

So many good players today.

1 Vote for everyone.

(North might just be starting to fell a tiny bit nervous too haha)

 

IM AM SO PUMPED I FEEL LIKE THE MICHELIN MAN.

 

GO DEES!!!!

    I think if we can get ahead and then be in front when the game finishes, we’ll win. 

     

    Uncanny accuracy. It's either the luck of the Irish, or the kid knows his football

    Dees by five goals.

    Jackson to surprise with 2 goals.

    Weid to kick 3.

    We will keep the Hawks to no more than six goals.

    Yes, I'm probably partially drunk.  Maybe.

    Whereas this chump can't even get the margin right

     

    (But feel free to keep drinking, please)

    To everyone - enjoy it.  While it's only a win during a long season, smashing the Hawks by 7 goals is something you can't ignore.  They have embarrassed us so many times over the last decade and now it's our time to start paying them back.

    Trac was sublime.

    Gawny stood up as captain and dominated all day.

    Viney and Oliver were awesome in the engine room

    Jackson was the right pick and was terrific.

    Our backline made them look ordinary, and they have been building to this for weeks now.

    Everything is starting to come together and it is exciting to watch.

    Go Dees!

    Even the most negative demon fan couldn’t complain about that. First class performance all around.

    [censored] me .  We looked like a premiership side today!!!

    Max Gawn - A mountain.

    Petracca - best game ever.

    The good times are over for Clarko - rebuild.

    I made some serious money and ..... the maid has gone into hiding!

    Obviously our best game since the 2018 SF.

    We won all four quarters. We weathered their initial storm, then we weathered their early third quarter pressure.

    Weideman growing with confidence (would have loved him to kick that final goal). IMO a clear tick for the two tall forwards gameplan.

    Gawn unbelievable, Petracca likewise. 

    Our defensive zone is clearly working: sides are struggling to score against us provided we don't turn it over. OMac, Lever and May all worked well together again, can't deny that trio is working well.

    Langdon has been great all year and the more we learn how to use his gut running and space-saving on the wing, the better we get.

    I haven't enjoyed footy this much since 2018. Hawthorn might be a bottom 4 side this year but we outplayed them like a finals side should.

    Absolutely rapt for Weid. Has copped the abuse, copped the bad luck with injuries, copped the non-selection and now taken his chances the last couple of weeks. Good on him.

    • 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.
