    Not to mention the sling tackle on Jayden Hunt.  Not even a free kick???  Go figure.  You know the next thing?  Even with the bull tish umpiring we are still winning.  Maybe the arbiter's wheel might also turn, come finals time.

    It bloody better.

    Meanwhile, Riewoldt gets away with not one but two instances of using studs up, kicking his opponent underneath the ball.

    Christian really is an inept imbecile.

    Wow.. thought that sling tackle was definitely worth a week, considering how late in the tackle he was dumped on his head.

     

    maybe it’s just based on who was tackled and who was tackling?

    Genuinely baffled McKay didn't get a week or at least fine for that. It was the definition of a sling tackle, Hunt was lucky to avoid injury. The difference in optics between the McKay tackle and the Lycett tackle last week is not that great...

    So when I saw it at the ground I thought McKay had driven his head into the ground. Replay shows absolutely nothing in it.

    Clip here, hard to see due to the terrible transition timing.

    That was quite a weak knee. Barely touched him and just a knee push with little force.

    On one hand these fines are annoying on the other it shows how the team is playing with aggression and a nasty edge we haven’t seen in a Melbourne side for a very long time (ever?)....that’s what successful teams do

    I agree there's not much in it, but at the same time you don't need to put your knee into someone's chest after you throw them off your teammate. It just incites more niggle.

    Did Caleb Daniel get cited for his tackle on Gray? Pinned both arms and head bounced off the ground. Only difference to the Lycett one the week prior was the Crows player was KO'd. Another example of the MRO punishing the outcome and not the action.

    Anyway, still plays so who cares. Should’ve kneed the lot of em.

    Holy cow, how does that constitute $3k ($2k with an early plea)? Barely any force behind it at all, I'd even question if at actually made a forceful contact! FMD

    I actually think McKay slows the final part of the tackle down to prevent the dangerous sling part. It's perhaps an example that it's slowly creating change.

    I just find it incredible that Rampe's flip from last week, which WAS dangerous, gets totally ignored while TMac gets a fine for that.

    Tmac only got fined because Gerard Healy made a big stink about Mummy dropping the knee’s  into a prostrate Zac Merret last week on ON THE COUCH. Of course Mummy got away with it and it was far worse than what Tmac did. Shamed Christian on TV to take action.

    • 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?
