First time for being in Australia for the Olympics for a while.

I had forgotten how cringeworthingly Aussie centric the FTA commentary can be.

    Isaac Smith would have made a big difference for us this year. Oh well

    Smith turning us down was a bit of a disaster for us IMO. He’s exactly what we need. 25 touches and a goal a week on the non Langdon wing.

    How simple is it to be able to have an option to watch the game on TV/devices with the sounds of the game (crowd when available, and players), but no commentary?

    I’d pay $30 a month for that option. I love the atmosphere, and don’t need anything else.

    Geelong are a good discipline team. Them and Sydney are the benchmark in this aspect.

    Well I'm calling it it will be a Geelong/ Dogs GF judging on last night and todays games?

    Man it’s so hard watching Geelong. They starve the opposition and then counter. They are so constistent and disciplined. 

    clear flag fav imo. This will be 10 wins from the last 11 with Duncan and Cameron to come back in

    Jeepers Geelong putting on a clinic.

    There is honestly no weaknesses in their side. Unfortunately I think think they want he flag this year.

    Up to the Giants to salvage the weekend somewhat, Netflix until then.

    You don’t want to play Essendon week 1 finals?

    Assuming we fall out of the Top 4, Essendon would be the side I’d most want to play against. More so than GWS.

    Tigers certainly seem Dusted.

    Nope, not at all interested in playing anyone that finishes 8th a month out from the finish. Certainly won’t be cheering them on the assumption we drop out from the top 4 just to play them. Finish 5th because you think they’re an easy kill, no thanks.

    We can be better than all of these teams, for longer, we just need to get our forward line sorted out and perhaps another outside runner (Bowey?)

  • Quote

    So Essendon will probably get 8th spot because the teams around them keep falling down. Hopefully the giants can produce a miracle and beat them

    just patiently waiting for essendon to win to put a nice little bow on this ****ty weekend.

    The 15 metre kick rule is so unfairly applied across the league. Some teams can kick it 7 metres, and some can’t kick it 25.

    It needs to be addressed in the off season.

    There seem to be times when the umpires just seem to think “that shouldn’t be a mark” and call “no 15” just on a whim.

    Just saw on the news Franklin elbowing an opponent with a wild backward swing - “may get a week if unlucky”.  
    Imagine if one of ours did that - “4-6 weeks”!

    Corruption reigns??

    • 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.
