Melksham is putrid 

He’s the most selfish bloke out there.

    Wasn’t expecting this. Good effort but we really need to put the pressure on this quarter. This lead is way too easy for them to overcome.

    Thank [censored] they called against cuntington. He is usually given a longer tether than most

    To be fair, that’s the first time we have bothered to tackle him today.

    That is seriously one of the best goals I've ever seen from Kozi in that quarter. Not overly flashy but the work rate was absolutely insane.

    And usually dives forward for the "in the back" when he knows he's done.

    Jake Melksham has made me nearly put my fist through a window at least 7 times today.

    Can't stand the [censored]

    He delivered three balls on the chest that quarter. Not had a great game but it's clear he's better forward of centre. He's trying to create.

    Much better quarter Melbourne. Worked our socks off and levelled up the contest ball. Gives us a fighting chance. Luke Jackson more than did his job in those centre bounces. Hasnt been a good one from Maxy but a big last quarter will suffice.

    Tom McDonald has been good for us since he went back.

    Good move by Goodwin there.

    Goodwin talks about playing your role and sticking to your structures, but he gives this guy a free ride. The mind boggles.

    You and me both.

    My North-supporting mate put $100 on them at 14:1. Not looking like a bad investment right now...

    Let’s hope we both have no clue what we’re talking about.

    His work rate was amazing for that goal. Cyril-esque. Was worried the criticism this past week would have hurt him but he's responded.

    First goal super important. We get it and I think they give up and it'll blow out.

    Next few weeks it gets tough. The fairy tale was never going to last all season 

    We are now being Hunted. 

    Speaking of Hunt...he has been totally Mia.

    One kick....ZERO tackles.

    With Jv out and Oliver having a quiet day it has a huge impact.

    Thankyou Fritta and Kozzie and Langdon and Trac.

    Anyone know what happened to Brayshaw??

    Some half time moves and an increase in work rate and we look a lot better. Great to see the kids in Koz and LJ lead the way. Now surely they dont come back out on their heels thinking its done? Surely...

    Melksham’s role is to kick accurately 

    He did well that quarter. Helps us get back into the game

    Not quite as good, but similar in a way to Farmer's Goal of the Century. Took possession in theback half and gave and received all the way until a goal was scored.


    Fully expecting North to come out firing and red hot to win this. 

    We are still trash in the clearances. Sort this out and we win. Otherwise this will go down to the wire.

    He's not a mid fielder that's for sure.  High HF kicking inside for the hit ups is about it.  Doesn't pressure without ball and when it's on the ground good luck.  I'm not sure a team can carry that one major asset long term.  Or can they?

    Indeed. ?

    (I think it's going to take a few good years to get rid of my deeply ingrained pessimism when it comes to the Dees.)

    • 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?
