Stop it, you guys. It hurts to remember ... such great players, such memories and then we realise their demise and the silent years that followed. Oh, it was absolutely fabulous, so continue. Just reading the above four sentences everything they did floods back at that is a real pleasure. What about Vagg, Bourke and others including the excellence of Norm the Smith? 

I have a memory of Norm seeming to be able to pull a rabbit out of a hat  at 3/4 time on quite a few occasions. Barry Bourke -great on a wing, full forward and back pocket-so reliable. Barrie Vagg-one day in 1966/67 when we were in the doldrums he won the game for us against Essendon at the G with 4 goals- beat both Barry Davis and Alec Epis.:)

    I love how Taj needed clearance from the surgeon to sweat post-surgery 😂😂

    6 weeks for a dislocated fingure is very stiff, especially after working himself into serious contention to make his debut.

    Salem 6-8 means he’s barely played any footy for 18 months. Is it the same knee he had trouble with last year?

    Hard to see him making it back to Full Salem this year - which as others have pointed out, will make it 2 years in a row. Far from ideal, he's a key player for us.

    According to Doctor Laura it is the same knee.

    This time a little over a week ago, we had only Taj Woewodin on the injured list (and Kozzie suspended). We now have, in addition to the official list, Joel Smith on the injured list (again!), James Harmes on personal issues and there’s still a cloud over Steven May. Mind boggling how much the list has grown in a week.

    I can’t understand why the Club doesn’t accept that his body is more suited to lawn bowls than footy.

    Joel Smith has spent more time on an injury list than on a footy field. Gotta feel for him.

    Has there been any part of his body he hasn’t injured?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
