Dusty won the game for Richmond and Oscar kept Carlton in the game.

    [censored] you Richmond.

    Why do they do the little things so well? Doesn’t even take talent. But they do them better than anyone.

    Dusty is an absolute freak though.

    Is there anything worse than a player that kicks a goal rubbing the hair of the defender. Complete lack of respect and class. 

    you have to respect your opponent

    Yes but take Dusty out of that contest and they probably lose. But that is why teams win multiple flags there is always a  great player driving the success. Barassi, Matthews, Hodge, Hird, Dusty.

    Sam is not soft. Never squibs a contest and plays the ball hard. And doesn’t crap his pants when he has a shot on goal

    Weideman is soft as [censored]. Often gets monstered by the opposition key back

    we are going to get absolutely smashed this season, call me reactionary whatever. there was not a single around the ground ball up all game, boundary throw ins sure but pure ball ups - none. and that's all we're good at...

    Well, one things is for sure.

    BT & JB along with Jobe and Hodgey were appalling.

    Fair point. If there’s less stoppages as a result of the new rules and game styles, then our strength (stoppages and contests) is taken away and our weakness (clean kicking and maintaining possession) is magnified.

    They got closer to the Tigers than we did last year.

    Yes i was thinking about that

    Goodwin has coached a different game style. 
    we need players who spread and shepherd each other!!

    Carlton played into the tigers hands and nearly won.

    Good on them but playing that way against Richmond you will lose four out of six.

    Not sure what style is required but the slow maul is pobably better.

    I noticed the importance of fast hands tonight, teams who handball the quickest will do well (bulldogs come to mind)

    Thought Carlton did the overlap handball  really well. Wonder if that is coming back into vogue.

    Harry McKay really needs to convert better. He has all the tools!

    Noted that tonight, they played a different style, fast direct footy which was great to see, made them look like a far better side than us

    Might be tougher but had zero composure and can’t convert. 

    imagine if the Weed played the 3 quarters McKay played. He’d be crucified on here 

    Haha McKay can't convert,  but yet Weideman missed a simple goal 25m dead in front against Adelaide to win us the game..

    You say it's poor list management we delisted McDonald and now you're saying Weideman is better then McKay?? You really are a Doozy..

    McKay is everything I wish Weideman was at. Weideman has done nothing since that Geelong game. That's nearly 3 years ago now..

    • 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.
