Will the Weid take out the title?

It was nice of him to give the other guys a 4 game head start.

    If Weid had played from round 1 like he bloody should have then he would easily be winning our goal kicking. 

    Actually don't be surprised if he does. In good form.

    I've been wondering if there's a little bit of Brayshaw of 2018 about his season. Out of the side until he genuinely earns his spot then comes in and plays his best footy

    Hes third or fourth  in the AFL in goals per game.  if he had played all season he would be up there with the Coleman leaders.  Wouldn't that be something.

    Its so awesome to see his improvement, theres nothing better than seeing a big young forward come into their own and start clunking marks and kicking goals.   He will snag 5 or 6 in a game very soon.

    One thing we haven't seen is Petty and Weideman up forward. I rate Petty's body of work as a forward last year and if its one thing he has over Weid its his one touch grab.

    Jackson, Petty, Weideman. A potential good forward line to build around.

    Like what the Weid has bought since he has come back into the side.  Plenty of aggression, attack on the footy and is starting to look dangerous.

    He's normally a very good set shot for goal which is one of his strengths, I just wish that he had nailed one of his multiple shots on goal against the Lions a few weeks back.  I think the wind down there at Carrara was a bit tricky, but if he's going to be a gun forward, kicking set shots with a bit of wind and/or under pressure needs to be bread and butter stuff.

    Look forward to see where he can get to over the course of the rest of the season with some continuity and hopefully no more major injuries.

    If he’s playing good consistent footy, the filth will have a crack when the opportunity arises.

    You can back that in.

    Every time Eddie mentions him he starts creaming over the Collingwood “heritage” !

    Not to take away from Weids recent form, I have a feeling Jackson will be a better player.

    Here is hoping these 2 can be another famous fwd combination in the years to come.

    • 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.
