You're thinking Lincoln McCarthy with that one.

But yes, hoping there's some fire in the guts from last year's finals.

    I hope we just play them off the park. Couldn't really give a stuff about drama from last year.

    Anyone know if the boys are having a light run at Gosch’s tomorrow prior to flying up to Brisbane?

    Oh you’re right. They’re both chumps so they’re easily confused. 🤣

    Actually, I just remembered how Jarrod Berry was involved to an extent in this whole deplorable thing. Not worth talking about.

    Would be surprised if May plays so soon, Salem will need a game in the VFL to get some touch. I have from time to time overactive Thyroid, takes quite a few weeks to normalise and running even 500m can cause exhaustion with elevated heart rate.

    Hope he has either done radioactive iodine, or cut it out, as a long term fix.

    I'm fine with this.

    There is honestly no rush in getting these guys back. Take all the time they need so that it sets them up well for the year.

    Just arrived in Brisbane. 
     

    80% humidity hit me as soon as we walked down the stairs off the Virgin flight 

    (ps. Virgin - wonderful!!? What a joke !!!! - delayed 40 minutes arrival ). 
     

    Dees will need good rotations through the midfield 

    Having a sub will help !

    Yep, me too 


    If it’s 31C, will there be extra breaks? What’s the AFL heat policy? I realise it’s a night game, but that’s a ridiculous temperature to be playing AFL football in

    According to BOM it'll be 25 degrees from about 7 pm onwards.  Don't know about humidity though!

    My phone weather predicts humidity between 70 to 80% from 8 to 11 p.m. ice vests and fans needed I suspect.

    Do the Richmond players still money grab these nights years after there flags???

    Dunno. But I must say 2021 was the subject of discourse for the majority of the night. 🏆❤️💙

    BTW, two thirds of the night was great. The other third, Clarrie spoke.  😁

    Seriously, I couldn’t understand a word he said apart from “hello” at the start.

    I live in Brisbane. It’s cooled down quite a bit after a heat wave. Last weekend was absolutely stinking hot, so looks like we will be fairly fortunate with the weather. It will be relatively temperate and the real hot edge to days and nights has eased this week.

    Have it on good authority that it has been an unhappy team at the Brisbane Lions over the offseason.  Not sure of the cause, or if it was a factor in them starting poorly v Port.  But just passing on what I’ve heard.

    So I assume May will be suiting up for Casey in that case?

    On Tuesday Goodwin doubled down from the post game presser saying all four players (May, Salem, Fritta, Viney) will be available for selection at either MFC or Casey.

    (on a serious note, if your mail is solid, then they obviously don’t want to risk May so early in the season.

     

    pressure is already on the Lions. could be 0-2. then play the dogs away and the Pies

    they will be fired up for friday! pity we might not have our brutes in viney may kozzi

    • 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.

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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?
