    Eye injuries heal very quickly with the right medication ? and rest. 
    i hope he can be back at the Club helping the Backline at Training and Matchdays soon. 
    this will test our depth, but that can be a good thing. 
    Tomlinson was magnificent yesterday. 
    played Mayzies’s role perfectly

    Can live with that.  Thanks to the emergence of Luke Jackson we have the luxury of sending Gawn into the backline for periods to mark everything which should see us in good stead while May is out.

    well actually the call for the injury is not a month but up to a month so hopefully that translates into only 2 or 3 weeks .

    Can't see him getting up in 2, we play norf in 3 which I'm not sure they will risk him unless he is 100 ready to go. My guess is 4.

    Ouch.  Won't be showing that to the loved one or any and all future children will be barred from playing.

    This is a big test for the team and I am glad we managed so well without him in the second half against Geelong. Lever was visibly fired up with the urgency of getting things organised and demanding no silly slips.

    It is also things like this that make getting that good early start (Four from four! Always fun to say!) so important.

    Huge relief that, ugly as it is, it is only expected to be a short period out.

    Hibberd in would be my choice because he has maturity, the good kick, and the intercept awareness to best fit our overall plan.

    If there is no bone damage he won’t be out for long, as long as his sight is fine!

    I'd give Petty first go, but I also hope they use this as a chance to move Majak down to CHB at Casey given we've got the forwards back.

    He played his best footy in that role and I reckon he could be a wildcard at some stage of the season

    I hope his natural sleeping position isn’t on his right hand side, that’d be bloody uncomfortable.

    In the preseason, I didn’t know how we would kick a goal without BBB and the Weid. I’m more comfortable now we can cover for Maysie out of the backline for 4 weeks, in part because our midfield/defensive forward pressure is so good and in part that we’re a better team than I gave us credit for.

    We looked very organized yesterday after he left the field - no doubt due to Lever's influence.  They are an experienced unit - Jetta, Tomlinson, Salem, Lever, Hunt. Rivers is the only real rookie.  I think they pick for the opponent.  Could probably get away with Hibberd in the short term who can play bigger than he is, and is also mobile enough for the middle sized forwards that Hawthorn and Richmond both have. I'm not opposed to seeing Petty get a go either.

    Get well soon big guy.

    Put the feet up for a few rounds Maysie.

    Reset yourself, come back strong, get that All Australian reward, and lead our backline to September. 

    Here's to a quick recovery.

    Feel the same about Daw. Just feel he’s going to have some important role to play at some stage. I know you can’t pick and choose full backs for different opposition, but against Lynch or McKay ie the monster forwards,  he’d be my go to over Petty.

    The article says he has a fractured eye socket - which involves bone damage (fracture)!

    i wonder how quickly eye socket fractures heal

    do they need surgery or is it just a question of rest and heal itself naturally?

    I hope your right. But AA defenders don't grow on trees.

    A team positive about yesterday was the way the defence transitioned withour May, no panicking with Tomlinson straight back to Hawkins and the courageous filling in the hole role Brayshaw played with such maturity.

    Never mind Lever's superb intercepts and leadership.

    Another good sign from the coaching team and players to cover the threat.

    Seems odd they would say he had an eye socket fracture but only up to a month out.

    Must be 4 atleast. Looks like he walked into the path of a Mack truck.

    • 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.
