    Great job reporting Andy. You guys are pros at reporting training. All I could muster up was "player x is having a shot at goal". Not an easy caper!

    Sure is expensive to have brekky/brunch in this area now. The days of a reasonable meal and coffee under $25 long, long gone.

    The metric system is "woke" now?  :blink:

    I had the same reaction.  The metric system came in in 1966.

    Not sure where daisy has been for nearly 50 years...🤔 or he has an odd definition of 'woke'.

    Nope. Tmac is awful and Schache has been banging down the door. Although I don’t think he’ll play. Maybe next week against North.

    When I watched Kalani last year at Lavington for the under 15's national championships he was towering over his dad.

    I was with a colleague and we estimated that he was already at 200cm tall.

    T Mac has runs on the board. Schache has 7 seasons of not performing at AFL level

    Tmac has been average since about Round 12, 2021. Schache may not be the answer but he’s banging down the door, and with Tmac showing almost nothing. If you’re going to bring up the Eagles game, look who he was playing against.

    Salo on track for 3 weeks (all going well)

    Is that 3 calendar weeks, or 3-4 Neil Balme weeks?

    Unfortunately TMac's good games are becoming fewer and further in-between don't like calling it out but that's where we are atm.

    The rehab was working hard. All sprinting, like they were achieving, under distance and time restrictions. Salem, M.White, J. Smith, Spargo and another VFL player. M. White and Salem continued to run laps. Spargo and J.Smith attended some drills. Smith's thumb still giving him some concern, as he attended to it a few times after marking.

    First out on the field, 4 minutes  before the rest of the squad, was the backline (Petty not with them). It looks like they want to go well after last week's effort.

    The drills started a bit low-key, and they were slightly off, iffy, clean handling and distribution. The second drill, they started finding their voice and skills improved. The third drill and they're humming,

    They spilt into two groups, that both worked on ball movement from the backs, thoughtfully to mids and finding angles and passes to advantage into the forwards.

    Finished the session with goal kicking.

    Tracc and Lever looking very good.

    Gawn started with some resistance work and joined in all the drills (ready to go). Did lots of work as a forward.

    L.Bailey is looking very smooth when moving and kicking.

    The effort and intensity was much higher than the other Captain runs I have seen.

    Go Dees

    • 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.
