    Not 3 words, but Olivers ball handling in the wet was impeccable.

     West was won.

    We went up against a side which was playing for a spot in the 8.  We were belting them, until the weather intervened.  Once again, the umpiring was atrocious.  I'll take a win the West anytime.

    Fritsch - Did Bugger All

    VDB - Worse than Fritsch

    Umps - Played for Eagles

    Absolutely nailed it 

    How does Vandenburg get chance after chance. Was slow and dumb and missed two definite shots that should have been kicked

    I think this is your best work Joeboy, that said, a touch understated on Bowey & Petty who I thought were outstanding.

    James Harmes! A bit more humble pie as a late night snack for several Demonlanders, who wanted him banished. You know who you are.

    Hunt - Taylor calls Langdon

    ...and the camera is right on his face as he's getting his ankle checked by the physio on the boundary line.

    To be fair he couldn't see his number.

    Also says gawn will struggle with tbe distance from 45 metres. 

    The bloke is just about the longest kick in tbe team!

    Petty doesnt do much wrong. Very good player as is Bowser who will be the most inexperienced player to play in a Demon premiership in at least 60 years.

     

    Enjoy the next 6 weeks fellas.

    TV commentators are dckheads mate. Amateurs.  One of the clowns was going on about how Melk cracks in week in week out.  I mean do some research. Every part of that sentence is wrong.

     

    Sidenote: Melksham always plays well after a spell and then fades after a month or so.

     

    Double sidenote: VDB is pretty ordinary and Sparrow is solid, i like him.

    I agree on Gawn but Rivers can kick it post high from 50m out and go 20m into the stands. I'd back him to be the longest kick at the club.

    Umps hate Melbourne

    Thid state of affairs has become so very obvious. What can we do about it? It may not be hatred from the umpires, but it is condoned, approved, never questioned by the AFL and its glorious myth of an equal playing field - highighted by an abnormal free kick differential between sides playing the one game of football, week in and week out.

    In the Dees' case, any progressive movement of the ball is interrupted and directly interfered with in a very arbitrary manner where the consistent application of 'rules' and 'interpretations' is grossly prejudicial and arbitrary to their continuing disadvantage.

    It is time for Pert to directly question the AFL itself with mounting evidence of such flagrant abuse. There is a template for the detriment of the MFC in the approaching finals - well rehearsed and grossly invalid - but no-one seems to care.

    Fritta to rest / be managed due to all the head bashing he received from the Eagles. Replace with JSmith.

    Gawn swings his foot and leg in an arc to the left when kicking for goal. He should lead his kicking action from the knee with a bent leg and smoothly extend the knee joint when making contact with the ball.

    • 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.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      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.
