Oliver - Hollywood Olly returns

Viney - selfish and wasteful 

Gawn - tried but unconvincing 

Petracca - failed important moments

Salem - not as dominant 

Fritsch - took his chances

Brayshaw - regularly butchered disposals

Langdon - couldn’t hurt opponents

Jordon - was rarely sighted

Hibberd - never looked controlled 

Lever - safe without dominance

Pickett - needed more involvement 

Neal-Bullen - retention not justified 

Spargo - great first quarter

Hunt - successfully provided run

vandenBerg - a momentum killer

Brown - had little effect

Rivers - has lost impact

McDonald - was almost unsighted

May - safe and reliable 

Petty - continued to impress 

Jackson - just a game

    Ridiculously harsh on Salem & AVB.  

    Salem was a rock & AVB was a terrific game for someone who hadn't played for a very long time and had very little VFL football.  He had a big hand in 3 goal scoring chains and came back from a huge bump.

    Way too complimentary on Gawn who had his worst game in his last 50 odd.

    Jackson wasn't just a game, he was once again, very poor and just isn't giving enough.

    Need to learn to kick more goals, even if we could turn half of those points into goal would make a huge difference.

    Viney: career worst form
    Players: drinking own bathwater.

    Disagree on Gawn.  He tried very hard.  That chase in the third was immense.  My Hawthorn supporting mates said they win by 4 goals if Gawn wasn't playing.

    The only reason they drew was that he was getting clear hit outs and everything went to Mitchell, Worpel & O'Meara.

    Also, can't stand the smiling and lack of intensity.  The Captain sets the level of intensity and fanaticism  Never see Joel Selwood smiling!

    I don't know who is a less convincing kick for goal, Jackson or Oliver. 

    Will cost us finals, our sh*tty kicking.

    Can we bring Bowey in for Brayshaw yet?

    I'm usually the first one to pot the umpires but not this time. The game should've been over at half time no questions asked, but we slackened off for 10 mins and lost the game. That's on our players.

    Picture this, 3/4 time, our premiership hopes are on the line in terms of a top 4 finish. We recognise that we need to start winning more contests. So what happens at the first centre bounce in the last quarter? A straight forward centre clearance and kick to Lewis who strolls in to take the mark and goals. Enough said. 

    It was a pea hearted effort by all players and coaches tonight.

    Don’t agree with many joeboy. Trac and Clarry were among our best and what was safe and reliable about May? Poor game imo

    Very selfish game by Viney... 11 tackles! He obviously is trying too hard! 32 Disposals... He should stick with 6 or 7 to warrant the criticism that the astute arm-chair critics of Demonland spit out! Only third for the team on metres gained... well that caps it off!

    You're too caught up in the stats movement. The turnovers killed us. Time and time again.

    • 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.
