the block on dunkley before trac's dribbler would've earned him a premiership medallion if it was the ONLY team thing he did - instead he had 23 pressure acts, and was 'on' right from the start when he stopped footscray getting low pressure exits from d50 due to his constant harassment 

how many second year key forwards have kicked the amount of goals he has and put the sort of pressure on that he's able to exert on a continual basis?

what a draft 2019 was!

    Yes, Sparrow gets that goal, because Tom pushed the Dogs player back through the goals, allowing the ball to clear the goal line.

    Kossie spooked those dog defenders - coughed it up to Jackson

    Good shepherd, but Dunkley was playing for the free with his tumble.

    He’s done this from day one, hits a body every single time he’s near one, I noticed it early and kept watch ever since. I always expect him to give a way a free as some have been a tad late, but as far as I can remember never has. 
    Ultimate team player, great awareness, hard position to play but is always involved even if the stats don’t show it. 
    He is a ripper.

    Might've been Dunkley's bad shoulder but I reckon Koz has actually moved him sideways a lot. Like uncle Byron he has the sweet sweet timing. You can see he gets it spot on. Dunkley might've gone down more out of shock than looking for the free.

    King and Whateley mentioned his off the ball work today. 
    And he should have had a shot 20 meters out. So prob should have had a goal to his name.

    Hunted and harried the Dogs defenders all night. Never gave them a second's peace. He didn't have much joy with ball in hand but his defensive work was A-Grade. He's going to be better than Cyril Rioli

    Agreed, not a great game but just   little things for TMac and Kozzie, both were involved in this one. Tmac gets the hand on it that deflects it to Petracca when otherwise Duryea would have spoiled it out and then the Kozzie shepherd was gold.

    KK had a fairly quiet game by his standards BUT his shepherd, allowing Tracc to kick his 2nd. 
    i have only just noticed what he did. 
    incredible

    Grand Final moment 

    That was the goal that broke the Dog

    Watch it again. Kozzie opened the door

    The more you watch the replays the more you realise his "quiet" game was actually a very good, team oriented game. Evey single player did some hard yards and all are deserving :)

    Yep, I was going to bring that up too. TMac and Cordy (I think) were locked hand on shoulder pushing each other. By the time the ball arrived, Tom had just about pushed him to the fence. Great display of strength.

    Tmac also involved early in this sequence too. Salem kicks out of defence to a Gawn/Keath contest and the ball goes over them both and Tmac is there for an easy mark. He then kicks it to Brown who can't quite grab it but gets the free for HTB with ~70 seconds left - Brown bombs it in and then the rest is history.

    That’s one of those acts known as contributing without the football.

    Spot on. Fantastic on-body work on his opponent to allow that Sparrow goal to get over the line. It was brilliant. Noticed by Hodge on the commentary. (Don't get me started on Sparrow - did some great things. Big big future.)

    I noticed the shepherd on the second viewing as well. I also noticed that a few players that looked like they had a quiet game were doing some good work off the ball.

    • 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.
