An intraclub the day before a practice match?

(Or just a captain's run in new gear...?)

    Does this mean we will be training at Gosch's going forward?

    Absolutely guessing, but could it be just a quick sneaky captain's run before the praccy match and perhaps the women's team have Casey today?

    I suggest we are also looking at our centre square crew for first bounce tomorrow morning. 

    hope you are correct - will be great to get a look at Jordon in the middle

    Yeah that's probably the case. I was hoping to get out to a session this preseason but Casey is just too far factoring in the return trip.

    Selfish.

    I hope they give Sparrow, Jordon and Harmes good minutes in the midfield tomorrow. Clarry has virtually had no body contact all pre-season due to his shoulder ops, and we need him cherry ripe for round 1. It'll definitely be a second tier starting midfield with Brayshaw and Viney to miss and Oliver will be in limited game time.

    That doesn't look like Petracca in the #5. He's lost a lot more weight. And what's with his legs? The results of cupping, perhaps? What's that meant to do?

    Cupping is supposed to promote better blood flow and relief of muscle pain - no idea if it works 
    Probably to ease pain from a corky or similar

    It’s either Petracca, or Jimmy Toumpas popped in for training and donned the number 5 he made famous...

    I get it confused with spooning.

    When I went to the physio for treatment he suggested I try the Thai 'massage' place a few doors down, above the pizza parlour.

    Did you ask him to provide the dumplings and spring rolls as a bonus  while receiving these holistic ??? Treatments at the Thai emporium.

    Oh and the spicy Asian sauces which ensure every Thai experience has a happy ending!!!

    Did his suggestion "end well" ?

    • 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.
