Can someone tell Petracca we won. Jesus. 

That's a bloke who knows that the job isn't done.  That's the maturity we want.  Be happy with the win, but we need to focus on next week very quickly.

    Shows us that he knew the pressure was on us, knew we were not good enough in Cairns, and knows it's not done yet.

    Funny - if he's going on about how great we are people would criticise him for overcelebrating, wouldn't they?

    Shame on you @dazzledavey and anyone else who wanted us to lose.

    I might get upset with things at the club but always want my boys to win

    Love Rivers and again Spargo showed his worth

    So the way I see it, we need the Hawks to pull their finger out tomorrow, but if not, either the Saints/Dockers winning sees us make the finals (to most likely be embarrassed by a better team, but hey, you never know)?

    Silly me, getting ahead of myself, we also need to win a crunch, do or die, game against a really poor team...

    Both right. Just his tone sounded liked we'd lost.

    I’ve said it before but I love Langers, his kicking less so.  He was so important in that last quarter.

    You have to wonder if we had snuck a bye in like everyone else over the last 8 weeks if we’d have got over the line in at least one of those other games. 

    The energy level was considerably different tonight.

    The Kids did it and that is our future just there.... At least they didn't chuck it in.

    Langdon is a gem. His work rate is unbelievable. 
     

    Rivers is a serious find. 
     

    Fun game to watch. Now we wait.

    100% 

    The exact right approach. We're in a position we shouldn't have been, and we have a lot of work still to do.

    Wonderful recruit.  He was everything we needed on the wing.

    Now, if someone like Baker can also step up to play a consistent game on the wing, then we would REALLY have something.

    Any chance of the Hawks pulling off a hail Mary tomorrow?

    Or a GCS win would be almost as good. Pies have Port in the last round. Both would be ideal!

    If only the whole game was just that last quarter. The rest of it made me feel sick. They tried to cheat us out of the win but the boys found a way. Thanks Rivers, Langdon, Trac, Spargo, May....add who you want.

    • 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.
