What did Richo say? I have no sound 

Something happened with Petty…

Sounds like (likely) Zorko made overly personal comments about someone  from Petty's family.

    Great win, but FFS Jaded and the others having a whinge about Brissy getting the last two goals have a good look at yourselves absolutely pathetic 

    Wait until you see what Sydney come up with.

    Is there a table somewhere that shows the scores we need in the St Kilda and Sydney game to hold on to second spot?

    I doubt very much as a club we would be happy with conceding some soft goals in the last. 
    I would hate to play Sydney at the SCG and so would the club. 

    Leave it out. Just destroyed a fellow contender in their home deck. Smiles all round

    OK it's 35 points but increase by about two points for every goal the Saints kick. ie if the Saints kick ten goals the difference becomes about 50 to 55 points.

    Are you serious?

    (PS not sure about the premise of your argument anyway. We're 7-0 on the road, whilst 5 of our 6 losses this year have been at the G, including to Sydney).

    Finals is a different ball game. Not to mention we want the home ground and home crowd advantage. After missing out last year I think we want our fans at the G cheering the boys on.

    Players beating the chest together in the room after the game. Jonesy was talking about that on the radio today, he said it was a team thing that the focus was in 2021 keeping the opposition below 68 points

    Does this mean the curse is broken? 

    I could be getting my narratives mixed up.

    If they make a movie of this game it will be called "BACKFIRE".

    They come out with their hard man act, against guys like Viney, May, Harmes ... none of our guys will shirk a push and shove and even big lumbering old Benny Brown doesn't take a backward step. Even the boy who's still in high school (probably) won't back down from a skirmish.

    What did they think was going to happen???

    It was good to see in the first two minutes our pressure was on.

    And what was this new thing ... low hard forward entries in space to leading forwards? Since when has that been part of football? I congratulate whoever invented that. We should keep doing it.

    Hitting our straps at exactly the right time of year.

    GO DEMONS!!!

    What is with Jonathan Brown and his narrative of us going after Zorko all night?

    Bloke is deluded, Zorko was a [censored] from the first contest

    Why it has nothing to do with it, we achieved a win, players reaction with the chest beating means we clearly achieved our target of keeping them below a certain score.

    you ever had anything to do with footy at a decent level and when you’re way ahead you start managing your players

    Big win

    Our last four matches have been against top 8 sides, three of whom have been playing for top 4. How much more different are finals going to be?

    Tonight we were underdogs and you yourself acknowledged pre-match it was supposed to be a tight one.

    Reacting like this after we've belted our literal contender for 2nd spot is silly.

    If we'd just played North, sure, be upset with junk time goals.

    • 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.
