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.

    • 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.
