Please get Viney off the ball he is getting caught every time he takes possession move him forward do something to change the mix  They are negating our strengths

Goodwin mix it up a bit please

 

Might be time for a few Toby minutes.

As you said push Viney forward for a stint.  Viney has burnt us coming inside twice now.

If you arent doing that at least pull Viney aside and make him aware of where he needs to improve with some vision at half time.

Same with Kozzy & Lingers with their mark and decision making on the wing/HF.  Clean that schiit up FCS!  Can also go inside once in a while.  Straight ahead all the time is too predictable and easy to defend.

    Back 6 need to majorly switch on, start winning some more contest and clearance and lower the eyes inside 50. 
     

    Geelong fans make me 🤮

    I'm sorry but May's kick ins still do my head in. They are to predictable and nothing happens. Find another option.

    poor delivery into our forward line, just booting without looking who to. need to lower their eyes and make sure they hit a target. it would also be nice if a couple of these players could move the ball on quicker. taking too much time to kick down the line gives geelong lots of time to flood back.

    Watching the same game as me 😊

    First vs second at a venue with a capacity of 21,000, playing in the dark.

    The AFL is a disgrace.

    Ripping game of footy though. Loved Tracs goal.

    The fumbles.

    Mostly off handballs.... a few too many are also missing targets

    We're far below our best and still right in this.

    Cats will look to switch or use the centre corridor around eighty percent of the time and we need to counter this as a priority!

    We've got this if we block the switch and tighten our skills.

    One of Tracc or Clarry need to cut loose in the second half for us to step up.

    C'mon Dees, bury them, they'll get tired.

    8 possessions between Kozzie, Bedford and Spargo - unsustainable 

    Dare say we probably need another tall target.

    That’s 127 kick-in consecutively out to 55 metres on the left to the pack.  It’s a defensive type play.  For the past 14 matches.  And something different is … like others who play on. Pass. They run past and deliver to the half forward area.  Hmmmmm. Maybe try it just once.  


    On the plus side, we're in a much improved position compared to HT of round 23 last year...

    Maggot  no23 why do you hate MFC so much. Is it because they don't appeal often enough. Is it because you have been told to. Is it because you seem to be able to make sure that you bounce the ball that slightly is off line enough, three in a row, to favour one team over another, or is it just that you have no idea of distance or what holding the ball is.

    They keep going through the middle and we are just non existent there. Most of their goals so far have been them coming through the middle. Trac and Oliver keeping us in this atm

    This is very similar to the Dogs game late last year. The cat are playing their grand final just like the doggies did in round 19.

    What a rubbish ground ball spends half the time out of bounds and you see more out on the full than any other ground. Should have been bulldozed years ago

    Feels like they are playing in a phone box.

    • 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.
