Cannot be serious.

Thought both TMac and Weid were good and we won by 11 goals.

Ben can win back his spot just like everyone else.

    Weid out, Brown in.
     

    No  question. There was a moment during the last quarter where he was in spitting distance of a giant who had the ball. Weid just stood there for a couple of seconds before you actually saw the cog turn in his brain that he should try to impact the ball carrier. 
    McDonald would have smothered without even thinking, and that’s why he stays in the side.

    Weed did a pretty good job, though still dropped too many that he got to, but BBBB surely is a given.

    Otherwise absolutely no change (barring injury)

    I don’t recall him ever losing it based on his form. 
    His three finals last year speak volumes (and the rest of his career).
    His inclusion immediately makes us a better side. 
    If either of Tmac’s or Weid’s performance tonight was good enough to keep Brown out I must be watching a different game. 

    Brown will come back in just as Petty did this week.

    He very well might, and I won't be sad if he does.

    Just my opinion that after a win like that I wouldn't be making any 'automatic' changes.

    In, BBB. 

    Out, I really don't know. Probably Weed.

    We might need to keep an eye on Lever's fitness.

    IN: Sideshow Bob

    OUT: Weed

    Toss of the coin between Weed and Plugger Mac but the latter is SO CLOSE to 200 games and is no better / worse than the former at this stage

    Weed competed well tonight but he is in no way as dangerous as Ben Brown. 

    Exactly.  Huge match up problem for tiges.

    Goodwin has showed sentiment doesn't count. Brown is a class above weid and will be picked.

    Brown for Weiderman

    Brown in. 

    Trac looked to be labouring tonight. I think those whispers are true. 

    Lever didn't look right by the end.

    Tomlinson, Dunstan. 

    It doesn't really matter. We'll keep winning whoever is in or out.

    It'll be Ben Brown for T Mac. 

    Pin this post. 

    Tmac hasn't fired a shot for too long now and Weed deserves another crack after tonight.

    • 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.
