    Jones was horrendous and must not be gifted a game next week. I dont care if its his 17th game or his 300th.

     

    In  -  Weideman, B Brown, Bedford

    Out  -  M Brown, Jones, ANB

    Angry again P2J?

    No ecstatic.  5-0.

    A few changes needed though as the Tigers have an extra 3 day break than us and will be fresh as a daisy.

    IN: BBrown, Weid

    OUT: MBrown, Jordon (stiff) 

    jones is only hanging on due to the media surrounding 300 -301 might be some time away

     

    Drop Jones? FMD. What better extra motivation for the boys to get over the line for Nate’s 300th?

    I would take out Jordon, M. Brown and ANB for BBB, The Weed and Bedford. Sparrow stays as sub.

    No way Jones is getting dropped for next week. After that ...

    I think he was playing the first 6 games this year regardless

    I actually agree. We can't carry him against the Tiges. Hold him over for the North game.

    Yeah good point. We need some fresh legs to come in, would actually justify his omission well, to save a bit of face and bring him back in a few weeks for a deserved milestone

    Jordon had a great game. Would be very stiff. 

    I have been a Demon supporter since 1959. I was nine years old then.I went to the footy as often as I could. I stopped going as often as I could after 1965: I mainly went with my brother and my son who were both Fitzroy supporters. I listened though, followed them, went to a few games in 1976 and when Barassi first came back. Then came the Northey and early Balme Resurrection and I listened to most games. Then the cruel last two years of Balme when injuries decimated us, then that weird but often great Daniher period, when I still listened. Which is a long winded way of saying I can't listen or watch live any more, not even in 2018. I watch the replays the nest day if we win. I do keep up with the stats though.  In the meantime, I was glad they didn't drop Jordon after an ordinary game last week and was thrilled when I saw he got a bit of the ball today: I felt really happy for him. In the meantime, I'll watch the highlights tonight, the full replay tomorrow and I will cast my 6,5,4,3,2,1 after that. Go Dees.

    OUT: Petty, M. Brown, Melksham
    IN: Jetta, Wiedeman, B. Brown

    McDonald to wing, with a defensive mindset if the Tigers get on top, but an attacking mindset if we're controlling the ball.

    In Tassie? For his 300th?

    Yeah. Fair point

    I worry he'll be exposed badly v the tiges

    AnB fought back really well in the second half. Did some nice things.

    Agreed. When a player redeems early mistakes within the same game as ANB did today, you don't drop them.

    Would like to think that one of May or Fritsch could be ready again - though the shorter turnaround doesn't help.

    You can't not put Weideman in, but Ben Brown was playing more up the ground apparently, so goals not everything. Hard to see us having Jackson, Tom Mac, Weideman and Ben Brown in the same team, especially as you'd have to drop a smaller forward to do so. But ...?

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
