    Nothings changed from last year. Too often we don’t turn up with intensity.

    poor half last week. Let the swans back in and were lucky to win the margin we did.

    We just didn't turn up. It's a repeat of the lions game.

    It's no excuse but to play 3 out of your first 5 games interstate isn't great scheduling. 

    Petty not the same player this year and we have had May out then Lever. Toomos been good but like so many today's has had a shocker.

    As long as Tmac doesn't get another gig I'll be happy.

    Big heads I'm over this nonsense.  Back to losing games we should not.  Goodwin your too forgiving of bad performances.  I'm really angry that they are devoid of leadership without Max and Lever.

    Just turned up, can someone tell me what happened to Spargo?

     

    Ducked into a tackle and got concussed.

    Petty finally influencing the game, lots of strong intercepts this quarter

    Not sure how it comes across on the tv but at the ground the team and the way they are playing is unrecognisable. Just every aspect of our game is appalling . To simplify it..every single thing for them is going right & everything for us is going wrong

    We aren’t even tackling

    It's like going back in time.
    And of course against the forken drug cheats.
    My god.

    Still feel like we're a team of front runners.
    All wonderful when things are going our way but useless and incompetent when they're not.

    This is up there with the Brisbane game 

    2 of our worst games in 3 years in the last 5 weeks, why is our form so up and down

    It's worst than that. It exposes our fwd line issues. Having Max back will help but unless Bbb stars for the rest of the year we are in trouble.

    Big time. Could’ve gone top of the ladder with a win. Now we’ll likely drop to 6th and be amongst a big group currently fighting for 4th-9th spot.

    Very disappointing day for the club.

    • 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.
