I'll throw a spanner..

If we lost Yze to a senior gig, would you take Buckley as a midfield coach?

In a heartbeat. The bloke can coach. If I was Carlton I'd be showing Teague the door & getting Buckley in navy blue. I've thought for a while that he could do something with the Blues list that Teague obviously can't

    Supporters need to relax.

    This will be massively draining on Collingwood players during the week. There will be many thinking about their future given the events that have transpired at Collingwood since last year's trade period. The club is a shambles atm with everything they've faced.

    If anything, this gives Goody and co another reason to G our guys up and prepare them for a hot first quarter. Clearly Collingwood will throw everything at as in the first quarter and if we can match their intensity (assuming it'll be there), then we will roll them after that.

    Collingwood have bullied us on many occasions, we're the oldest rivals in the game.

    It's time to give it to them.

    I don’t reckon they’ll go for an untried coach. Once they keep their hands off Goody I’ll be happy. 

    it makes QB a much tougher game. They will play out if their skins for him

    Might bring a few more to the QB game. Do we still get the gate receipts?

    I'm not worried about Yze leaving and certainly not leaving us in the lurch halfway through a season that we're 11-1 with the best shot at a premiership in 50+ years.

    I'm more worried about Collingwood playing out of their skins for Buckley's last game.

    Maybe they will 'A F' but as we are the better team if we put in equal commitment we should win.

    The danger was we might underestimate C/wood or be off our game coming into this one.

    With this development we now know what they're going to bring and can step up to match it.

    Of course it could also deflate them and they bring nothing.

    Going to add an extra interest to the game.

    yep....will last till quarter time...

    Did he jump or was he pushed...if he was pushed they must already have someone else lined up you would think?

    2 points.

    Micky malthouse has arguably s*** the bed in leaving his last 2 clubs in tatters

    Pies still paying $5.50 on sportsbet for QB, but if a loyal dee fan like me the +32.5 at the line is tasty

     

    It’s only 1.90 for the line on SB at +30.5

    Ross Lyon

    You have to wonder if Carlton's review and now Buckley stepping down shows these two clubs are panicking about missing out on Ross Lyon.

    From everything that has been mentioned prior to this, I don't think the players will care one bit that Buckley is standing down. That is the whole problem

    Mondays game is more dangerous now due to the unknown. Will this fire them up more or cause them to completely fall apart?

    Ours boys need to stay focused so we don’t have a repeat of the Adelaide game where we lost our way and lost to an inferior team.

    ..or maybe Clarkson.

    There is little doubt that Carlton have spooked them.

    • 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?
