Any risk of one of our blokes single grabbing a ball?

    As shaky a defensive effort. I’m calling it, we will get rolled!!

     

    Its bizarre we can beat every side in the eight but struggle only to bottom teams.

    And people don’t think we should call Clarkson. The man is a genius. Getting out coached and out played badly.

    Hibbo. NFI

    3rd quarter

    Dees pathetic effort against bottom team Again !!! 

    X bombing to packs in fwd 50 

    x no leads 

    x Hawks leading in fwd zone 

    x Hawks winning contested footy

    x Vandenburg and Viney cannot hit a target 

    X Trac handballs to no one. Handballs to Jackson surrounded by 3 Hawks. 
    x ball watching. Gawn.

    x out tackled 
    x kicking for goal. Pathetic. 

    nine negatives  

    zero positives

    Just now, leave it to deever said:

    We have sloppy skills, and don't stick tackles

    We're susceptible to a dog fight, but our structure holds up against class

    You can tell when we're off. Double grabbing loose balls and inviting pressure. Slow predictable ball movement. So frustrating to watch.

    % now back below Geelong.

    Any team with heart and character would have boosted their % by 10 tonight, but, no ... will be bloody lucky to even get over the lien

    Hawthorn players are just free. 6 more scoring shots. Those early misses might cost us. 

    Top teams put away these bottom teams.

    Melbourne have always had this attitude of coasting against lower teams & think it will just happen


    Boooooooooooooooo

     

    Hawthorn are out working us pure and simple. But my god umpiring that 50 set a standard. Hawthorn player ran into one of our who marked and nothing.

    • 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?
