    Great quarter Melbourne. Owned it. Can they play this way for the next 2 quarters? Time will tell

    Tigers have certainly got the rub of the green with the umpires, but we got away with 2 frees there ?


    Great quarter. Silenced the annoying Richmond supporters around me.

    Hibbard doing awesome on dusty. Keep it going boys

    Hit more targets when under no pressure, and hold a few more chest marks, we win by 6 goals. 

    Salem. Wow.

    Hibbo. Wow.

    We MUST keep Dusty out of the game - he can change it off his own foot in a 5 min burst.

    Great 2nd quarter

    Survived the early ambush. 2 forward half pressing teams. They got the jump early and we've got the ascendancy at the moment. Centre clearances so important

    Luke Jackson has been great.. the pressure he and Gawn are bringing is unbelievable for two giants.

    Hes holding his marks and is reading the play so well.

    This guy will be a star.

    It's been said before and I'll say it again.
    The umpiring is a disgrace.

    Other than that I'm forkin' feeling it boys.

    Now is the time, the players must believe. 
    they weathered a huge storm in the first Quarter, we were shell shocked, and then were able to get momentum back and kick away. 
    this is the moment MFC Keep the foot down

    Giving them no space whatsoever and getting on top of much of the stoppage play and one on ones.

    Gawn, LJ, Gus, Salem, Tmac and Hibb were immense that quarter.  We are also beating them on the outside game.  They arent precise anywhere on the ground other than looking dangerous coming inside 50 which is to be expected given the quality talls.

    How good are we at responding to pressure these days.

    We just soak it up and then spit it back in spades.

    Yep, Hibbo has been really good. Dusty will still have an impact, it is just about mitigating it and Pig is doing that very well...super physical.

    I am so impressed again with us giving up an early lead and the.lm managing to re-group. This team has not been capable of that until this season.

    foot on the throat time now...go Dees!

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
