3 things that will win us the game:

- tidy up our kicking

- up our tackling tempo in the forward 50

- take our chances on goal

The old premiership quarter here, let’s get early goals on the board and start to get the game on our terms.

    Correct. Kicking has been shizzzzzen. Tackling PATHETIC. Had 33 inside 50s. 4 goals. Shades of 2019.

    Why are the umpires shouting stand but the hawks players allowed to continue moving back?

    I know you have the option but they aren’t quick enough at removing themselves from the protected area.

    Brown looks like he's stepped out of one of those early 2010's sides. Just nowhere near it.

    Ed Langdon is just a gem. Carrying us so well today when a lot of others aren't quite wanting to work hard enough. He'll never stop working. Might need to change my avatar soon.

    Can we lay a tackle inside 50 ?

    Ive seen three not paid to us where the player just drops it. Max does exact same - paid. That’s the umpiring differentials you get in the stats sheet

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
