Chol is playing very well for the suns. He's been a good pick up for them

Clearly enjoying not having to play 3rd/4th tall. Casboult has been very handy as well - limited player but doesn't lack effort

    Wonder if he'd like playing 1st CHF in a top team?

    Would need to get Melbourne-fit first though.

    A couple of unanswered goals is all the need to put Pies out

    Its only one goal to replace them.

    Looks like 2022 Saints is what everyone was expecting in 2021. Paddy Ryder is just such a game changer for the Saints. More than a little happy to see the Blues go down as well.

    In a few minutes, we will be the only undefeated team after the first four rounds………. and  we are yet to get out of second gear!  It’s a long season, but gee, we a are a class above right now!

    Makes our modest win over GC in oppressive conditions look better now. GC are a very good side at least early in the season and at home.

    Don't like getting ahead of ourselves but it really is ours to lose.

    Did not see those last 2 games results coming. I gave the saints a chance but to win by that much is great. 

    At least we can look down on other teams now

    So ... Demons win. Check.

    Geelong win. Damn.

    Pies lose. Check.

    Dons win, just. But in a way that has their fans spitting chips. Pass mark.

    Hawks lose. Check.

    Blues lose. Check.

    I rate this weekend 8/10

    I can't get this comment from Goodwin out of my head after the win at GC.

    Are we seriously just riding games out to preserve our bodies?

    I'd say so. Our more chaotic / high pressure style is unsustainable week in week out for 4 qtrs. Looks like if we get a comfortable lead we're content to park the bus.

    It was the same as the game against Melbourne. Once the sun goes down at this time of the year the ball is like a cake of soap. That combined with the natural fatigue late in the game.

    Percentage can be built by keeping the opposition scores low. If believable what he said we must be the only side that are pacing themselves on game days. We did have 2 short breaks and perhaps a wise decision to not run ourselves into the ground like some other clubs have already done. Defence uses less energy than offence.

    Ryder bump very similar to the one May got pinged for in his preseason game for us - should cop a week

    shouldn't, and shouldn't have. He  stopped and the "victim" cannoned into him.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
