I would imagine they would have had a short training session at the ground around late arvo.

 

So is the game at 6.10 or 7.10 (Melbourne time)?

Hopefully giants rock up at half time.

They did last time I made this trip. They killed us in the second half.

    If we bring our best we'll win. 

    They (GWS) could bring their best but can they sustain it if we're at our best? 

    Rather than matching them we need to set the standard and then keep our foot on their throats ... do that and GWS will wilt

    So really, the ball is in our court.  And the team still has a lot to prove so being off our game at this stage of the season would be unacceptable

    Having said all that I would take any sort of win!

    Just win!

    The way things are panning out, it looks as though we've beaten two bottom eight sides thus far.

    GWS are much the same, so taking advantage will be crucial as we'll have a much tougher run in the middle part of the season.

    We need to cancel out those two matches against the Doggies, with two wins against GWS.

    Let's go Demons!

    Pretty sure it was yesterday afternoon.  Max said in the video of support they sent to the AFLW side that they'd be watching in the airport.  That match was yesterday arvo.

    correct, they missed the aflw game because they had to be at the airport before game time

    Dont like it. Melbourne will have to sit around most of today twiddling their thumbs and thinking too much. Much better flying up today having  a relaxing lunch then go for a light  run later and off to the game.

    On form we should win comfortably, but GWS will be fired up at the start as it’s their last hurrah today at 0-2 and abysmal contested differential last week.

    Should be a slog and poor quality game. Just need to banks the 4 points and get back to a few games in a row at the G.

    I hope after the amount of practice we had last year, that game day routines when we travel have been if not perfected, at least ironed out.

    Either way it wont be used as an excuse if we lose as last year showed.

    Anywhere Anytime Anyone. (or something like that)

    Melbourne always play better when Hogan doesn't play. Dee's by 60 odd, T Mac to kick 4, with Jackson the surprise package kicking 3 of his own.

    I know the season is still in its infancy but gws are a bottom tier team and hence we simply must win.

    3 zero isnt enough. Big win must be forthcoming if we are serious contenders.

    It’s the default expectation of being a Melbourne supporter of the 2007-2021 era.

    That must explain our great success in 2019 and 2020!

    Hogan was actively playing for Freo! Today he plays for no one, check mate

     

    What is it with people who run with the bent logic that our win against the Saints is somewhat tarnished because Essendon beat them by a greater margin. 

    So does Sydney beating Richmond make them a lock for the flag then....

    Must also mean than because Freo defeated the Giants and we defeated Freo we automatically win today. 
     

    No other variables should be taken into account.

    • 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.
