    Was lying in bed cursing this faruking lockdown and trying to remember A: what day it is and B: what appointment I had after 4pm today. After checking my reminders and a bit of light surfing, I realized we are playing at 4 something or other today. What a strange time to play footy midweek

    Alas there will be no smoking meat for Josh today, I'll be farming the pig instead of eating it, but go the Dee's none the less.

    Do have a nice big brisket lined up for father's day morning though.

    Game day !!! Had forgotten until I saw the thread! 
    How many times can Dees supporters think off where we’ve won the difficult game ( aints ),  only to give back any advantage , by losing the supposed easier game?

    We won’t want to let our guard down this arvo !!!

    The Swans can’t score and our defence is peaking, there’s no way we can lose this game. Sydney by 27.

    I see there's a bit of MFCSS virus still lurking about Uncle.  Nothing a good Shiraz won't flush out!

    I'd recommend giving it a fair shake well before the bounce.  Finished the remainder of my Wolf Blass grey off on the weekend PRIOR to the match and it worked a treat... anxiety quashed!

    I'm having flashbacks of our loss to them in 2018, but I feel as though we've matured since then.  Plus our back line and overall team defence are in a better spot as well.

    Dees by 5 goals.

    4:40pm on a Thursday, I could get used to this.

    They are missing a significant amount of good players from that team.

    I am a little concerned about Papley. Im not sure who gets the gig but I hope they shut him down.

    One day Weid is going to breakout and kick a big bag of yummy goodies. Hope it is today.

    Funny time slot. We better win because its not a good look being 3 sheets to the wind b4  5.

     

    6 goal margin in our favor which is the same number that Weid kicks as well as the number of comfort franks I eat b4 halftime and the square root of Oliver's possies.

    Edited by leave it to deever

    Things to watch for:

    Are we running hard enough to defend and reset the zone behind the ball?  This is a key indicator if we are on our game or not.

    Are we winning the contest / clearance?  For a team that prides itself on this, we have sucked at this for many weeks now.

    Do we have reasonable disposal to advantage, or do we play hot potato?  One works, the other makes me want to spew.

    Do we have enough presence forward of the ball to offer a suitable target (s)?

    Honestly, if we lose this one, we only have ourselves to blame.  Think it will be 42 points Dees win.

    What will the conditions be like? 

    26° at game start and maybe 23° at games end. Humidity is forecast to be 68% which is typical winter conditions up here. 
    Breeze blowing to the northern end. It will be a good coin toss for Max to win

    • 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.
