Congrats to Tom McDonald for being awarded life membership of our great club and a loyal clubman. 

170 games  mostly solid football and hoping that you  are injury free and ready to produce some of your best football in 2021 and beyond. Well done Tommy.

Very well deserved honour for two wonderful club men, and hopefully there are many more games and accolades to come for both.

Congratulations to Max and Tom.

However, I notice two other former players were also granted L"ife Membership". Given that both played for us in the 19th century how can "Life Membership" be awarded to people who have passed away? What does "Life Membership" mean?

Congratulations to both blokes.Is Nathen Jones a life member?

He became a life member in 2015  D.

 

Just when you thought the club didn't love you anymore Tom , then this happens!

 

It'd be great to see Tom recapture his 2018 form, ideally during the warm up immediately prior to the first practice match this preseason.

I think its given to all players who play 150 or more games.

It's basically 10 years service as a first base then other efforts and service to the Club.

Big Things from Tom this year i can feel it. More of the same from Big Maxy. 

Well done on receiving Life Membership.

Perhaps it should be eternal membership.

  • 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.
