If he plays well, it'll be interesting to see what happens once Jackson is fit.  I don't think it's implausible that he holds Jackson out when both are available, in the same way others have held him out. 

it keeps the heat on Ben Brown and Tom McDonald as well, 1-2 bad weeks and Jackson could take their place.

    There will be times where Brown weid and tmac will share the forward line, I am really excited to see this.

    Hopefully he can kick a few and cement a spot in the team. He'll need a run of games though, at least 3 i'd say. Very difficult to hit the ground running after such a long lay off.

    Bulldogs will be nervous if Weid finds form. their backline is a big weakness imo and if we can get our midfield sorted over the next 2 weeks, which i'm conident we can, we could become an even better side

    I feel the need, the nnnneeeedd for Wwweeeiiiidddd!!!

    Glad to hear Mark Williams is high on him, hopefully Sammy has the confidence to take his shot. 
     

    Can’t wait for him to be potted if he doesn’t star, give him a few weeks people!

    Would love to see him kick 3+ 

    I'm a big fan of him and hopefully he can get a handle of the Jones or Weitering (although both a pretty solid defenders)  

    Very interested in his attack on the ball/defensive acts too

    Put the pots down Sammy and the chips or you’ll end up looking like Hutchy.

    I am a good deal older than 61, CH. Comfortable, but not numb. I play golf every day and that makes this 'senior' lithe, lively and relatively fit for age. Try it, you'll love it. Footy has its frustrations that we bear. Golf has even more frustrations that are the characteristic fun of the game.

    To your post, earlier, I almost stated: My Floyd has turned pink, and my numbness is as weak as the Waters.

    This proposed 'fit and ready' forward line that we have been planning will be frightening for any opposition. Our backline is already in their nightmare(s) and if the midfield can re-group, distemper will set in with halucinations of the Red and the Blue.

    Remember when we had Tmac firing next to Hogan , Hannan and Garlett. It seemed like a powerful combination.

    Well now we have Tmac firing....Bbb...Sw...Kozzie and Frtiitta.

    Not too shabby.

    Fans will burn the joint down if he makes a hash of it.

    2+ goals, 10-15 touches, a few free kicks and maybe a contested mark or two.  Cause thats an average game from Ben Brown based on career performances.

    Admittedly, all reports are he's taken a big leap forward this year so intriguing to see. Hope he gets a few weeks to show it.

     Jacko  will come back into the team no doubt so it is up to all players to perform to keep their spot.

    Would have thought after 5 years in the system by Weideman - all the puns would have been exhausted... 

    I suspect 'headline writers' have around 1000 options just sitting there...and just need to scroll through Demonland ?

    Yes, but if he teams well with Ben then it will be Hash Browns!

    (I will see myself out now)

    Just a little bit of fun, a word play, that's all.

    • 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.
