Gawn - a huge loss

Viney - obviously played underdone 

Brayshaw - disposals were amateurish 

Petty - tried but failed

Oliver - many irrelevant possessions 

Petracca - involved too late 

Rivers - loose but tried

Bowey - not the worst

Lever - played with passion

Harmes - not to standard

Langdon - had little input 

Neal-Bullen - was rarely noticed 

McDonald -  had no influence 

Fritsch - was obviously underdone 

Spargo - was easily outpointed 

Grundy - tried but ineffective 

Hunter - had little influence 

Sparrow - a nothing game

Chandler - took his chances

McVee - regularly looked lost 

Melksham - probably on field

Brown - our only forward

    I’m starting to worry Sparrow doesn’t have another level

    Agreed. Rivers played well

    I thought Grundy was great not his fault the midfield was terrible.

    Certainly worked his way into the game as the solo ruck and credit to him. Needs to build some synergy with Trac and Clarry if we’re to win the centre clearances going forward.

    He’s going to earn his money this year if Gawn’s out for weeks, but he’d love having the number 1 mantle to himself.

    Tomlinson - was pleasingly solid

    Shrewd recruiting by us. Imagine how we'd be without Grundy now that Max is out

    @joeboy  Hunter - had little influence 

    I have to disagree. Hunter played very well in my opinion. I was at the game.  He was creative and smart with very few errors. Probably one of our best 3-4 players. 22 possessions.  15 kicks. 480 metres gained. Kicked a good goal.  Hit targets.  He was prominent and had influence.

    • 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.
