    So long as we are on the “right side” of MCG finals it doesn’t matter. If finishing 4th means we end up playing Port in Adelaide, then I rather finish 1st. 

    Agreed. Or West Coast in Perth like 2018. Basically, notwithstanding what the Doggies did in 2016, we need to finish Top 4, and above any non-Melbourne clubs so we always play at the MCG (this would be the year the AFL gave Geelong a home finals game).

    The last time the dees were on top I was a virgin teenager in high school.

    Now I'm in my 30's.

    The Essendon drug cheats should be at 0 too, all 6 of those weeks would have been when they were pumped full of performance enhancing drugs.

    Dare I ask when was the last time we were on top for 2 consecutive weeks.

    1988 (first half of season) springs to mind but not sure.

    These stats are a sad reminder of both how [censored] we have been and how old I am. So cheers.

    Mate think about all us mid 30s supporters who have not seen us do anything but suck for basically our entire life.

    I am genuinely in foreign territory here. 

    I have been a member since the 70's so not much joy for me either. I was reminded of my children. Their childhood as football supporters was not fun for them. It was good to see the kids enjoying themselves.?

    P.S. Yes I feel old too.

    Finishing top is overrated.  Last side to win the flag finishing first after the H&A was Hawthorn in 2013.  The next two were from 2nd and 3rd, the Bulldogs in 2016 were 7th after H&A; the only year the Tigers were first was 2018 when they dropped the prelim. The great Brisbane side never finished on top either.  I'll happily take 2nd, 3rd or 4th after round 23.

    Put it like this... 
    If we finish on top and go out the same way as in 1988 or 2000, we could argue this has been our best season since 1964. The only way we could argue that 2000 was better than 1988 was the we finished higher.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
