Richmond asked us a few big questions in that quarter and we had the answers. We will get to ask a few questions of our own before this game is done.....

 

We are fumbling, nervous, dropping easy chest marks and over handballing early in the qtr. it looked nigh on game over.

We settled somewhat, but they need to stay composed and focused, not worry about the grubbiness or all that crud and play our football and see if they can best it. Early on we are playing on their terms.

Mustchange that if we are to have any chance.

Huge crowd would take a while to settle.....some of our guys wouldnt have ever seen a crowd like this considering covid last year...

Jeez Richmond applied some serious heat - we stood up pretty well in the end

Hoping our fitness can see us going the distance. They really seemed to have a lot at contest after contest that quarter.

Richmond are sneaky bastards. Always with the sly dig in every contest.

Agree. They always like to sneaky punch, knee or elbow

Our centre clearances are always woeful, we get cut up on the outside of!the centre circle.

Richmond threw everything at us, we responded. That amount of pressure last year we would be 6 goals down. 

Let's keep it going, finals like pressure tonight!!

And Spargo tackle on Houli ?

ANB, you lack intestinal fortitude and that is the kind way of saying that.


Take that quarter. Got jumped early with an @$$y Riewoldt goal and then a turnover and hack kick goal. Richmond will nail us on turnovers if we cough it up. However they will run out of puff if we hold possession and make them chase.

Jordan taking Dusty (mostly) in the middle...then Hibb when he drifts forward.  Viney playing a bit at HF

I think Not where it’s in the goal square !! 

If that's the best the Tigers have then they have nothing! 

We'll win this!


We REALLY need to stick or tackles.

Tigers are shaking them off.

Its an isolated shower....will stop soon

Got to stop the fumbling

They’re a pack of dirty snipers. Hope we get our [censored] together and run over the top of em


Didn’t even put dusty on his line. 
cheating [censored]

Dusty holding - no call. FMD cheats

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
