Viney needs to be commended for his defensive job on Wines, he was basically a non factor. Viney offence stuff will come.

 

Limited Wines at the contest but he had 33. Viney has to get his spread running back and has to do something that resembles AFL footy with the ball otherwise we won’t get far.

The combination with Harmes is particularly concerning. 

Both absolutely butchering it.

    Absolute music to my ears. We have a ripper.

    Viney was better today than the last two weeks in getting and using the ball. Still missed some targets but he was at least lowering the eyes and looking to hit lead up targets.

    Harmes, though. Not a great game IMO.

    Gawn confirming they did a block of hard training around the bye. 

    But said it wasn't a factor in their form slump

    My theory about that earlier today seems to have some merit. Hopefully it proves dividends towards the end of the year.

    Won against some of the worst umpiring I've seen this year. By the way where's Dr. I'm always right?

    That has to be win of the season. Petty was amazing, backs were so solid, mids were methodical and forwards kicked what they should.

    Wines may have had 30, but every single one was under extreme pressure. I reckon Viney was very good tonight.

    Our players worked so hard to give it to Viney who was in a better position only for Viney to throw it on the boot as quick as possible across his body. It was probably my only standout negative for the night.

    I actually think the doppy aholes started playing the Port song then went I [censored] we didn’t win quick change it.  Idiots. 

    I thought that’s what happened! Then I thought nah, surely not. But yeah, they defs played maybe a couple of seconds of it. I’m glad you mentioned it coz I thought it was just me getting old. ?

    To be fair to Viney, Wines did have 33 but only 5 clearances (Oliver 11, Boak 8, Petracca 7 by comparison) and only 375 metres gained (we had six players with more than that).

    @A F Viney 88% TOG tonight.

    We clearly set ourselves for this game, didn't we? JJ back up to 75% too, and this week it was time for Rivers, Spargo and Jackson to play limited minutes.

    A lot of it is still between the ears for our players. 
     

    Against the top teams we are switched on but against lower teams we seem to struggle to be switched on but it’s something we can work on prior to the end of the season.

    I loved it but i thought that we have had better wins

    Bulldogs, Brisbane, Swans were all better wins imo (in that order).

    He went at about 44% disposal efficiency.  Thought he was a liability in the first half, slightly better in the second.

    Harmes fumbled about everything!

    Would you seriously have expected him to say anything else (ie it wasn't a factor).

    Explains the pressure drop you highlighted does it not?

    They waited for Dixon to take his kick.  Then they played it.

    • 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.

      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.
