Looks like if it’s any ducking at al that results over the shoulders contact it’s not a free. 

Understand the need to prevent ducking, but sad to see it applied where it's legitimately just a player picking up a ground ball

    Nervous defensively. Petty a little off. Doggies sharper around the ball. it’ll be a close game I reckon

    Until it’s a Doggies player then there is a special clause in the rules of the game.

    We look more dynamic on the fast break but they are very good in close with those quick hands…be a close contest all night I reckon

    Feels as if we gifted the dogs their goals. It doesn't look like they are doing much to keep it close.

    If Harmes is tagging Bont it ain't working.

    Grundy's hit outs are not really to advantage.

    Max bog.

    Kozzy dangerous.

    Lever good.

    Clarry, Langdon quiet.

    Nice goal by Tommy Sparrow.

    Pickett should have passed to Spargo in perfect position, but selfishly shot for goal and missed.    Also Riv could have kicked out to Spargs all alone, but kicked to a contest instead.

    Clearances leveled up bit we managed to hold together down back. Just the 2 Dogs marks inside 50.

    Free kick Bulldogs. Wtf. 

    Have seen a few bad ones in my time. That’s in the top 5!

    Rivers seems to be lacking confidence in his short kicking, he'd rather kick a bomb every single time.

    I think it’s going to be one of those rule adjustments with frustratingly unintended consequences…

    Tell me again how May isn’t the glue that holds us together down back. 
    Also please put someone better on Bont.

    • 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?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
