    Can someone please explain to leave it to deever that he can press the mute button and that he is not being forced to listen to the commentators.

    Toby should be safe.

    Commentators so keen to condemn him they failed to notice that Danger started to squat to tackle but his left leg slides out from under him.  Had he not slid the elbow/arm would have got Danger in the chest.  

    Also Fritsch got off on something similar (the forearm).  The Tribunal set a precedent in the recent Buddy case of accepting similar incidents as evidence so they will have to accept the Fritsch decision.

    I think Careys correct in saying that now Danger has gone to hospital tg is gone.

    I felt that for the action Fritta was very lucky, but given recent results with the tribunal he should be fine. A lot more split second than Buddy who shifted the ball to the other arm in order to elbow the tackler. 

    Consistency says that he shouldn’t get suspended.

    Generally speaking, perhaps.  Please be gentle with me on this.

    In play + reasonable to try fend off + Danger slipped =  No case to answer.

    As comparison:  Hawkins had no case to answer with his (well disguised) elbow to the head of May.  I can't remember the rating but probably, careless, high (head), high impact as May was hospitalised and missed a week.  Toby assessment should be the same.

     

    Go Giants!!

    So surely that says he will.

    PS Selwood just chose to bump Taylor head high - but I guess the Selwood rule will apply and he will be fine (or at worst fined).

    Gee, I think this really could be an upset.

    Go giants.

    As I recall Hawkins wasn't even cited - the media didn't go all over it so Christian didn't even have to have a look.

    Can someone work out if Geeling lose tonight what does that mean in terms of how many wins we need to secure top 4?

    Man, BT’s not even attempting to hide his disappointment when the Giants goal.

    Maggots doing their best - Guthrie clearly rode him in the back - "free kick Geelong".

    Don't even think of it - win the bloody lot.

    For a much lauded defence, Geelong have conceded a lot of goals out the back tonight.

    The same amount as before the game started. It affects the chances of making top 2.

    • 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.
