    Didn't know where to put this, here is as good as any.....as good as last night was and yes we are on top of the ladder, a little reality check may be required.

    We have played one team in the current top 8.

    That’s true, but the Dogs and Sydney are better than their current ladder position - or in Sydney’s case, were at the time we played them. 

    But yes, Collingwood, Port Adelaide, Adelaide and Geelong will all be tougher tests than most of our last month of footy.

    Cant understand why the umpires celebrate those numpties  except The Bont. Top 5 player in Afl.

    Easily top 5, maybe even top 3

    I'll tune in tomorrow to see what Kane Cornes and Matthew Lloyd say. They generally have 15 players each in his top 3-5 in the comp.

    This could be the perfect day with Richmond, Essendon & Collingwood losing 

    What’s that I hear? Someone prematurely writing off Collingwood?

    Come back to me at the end of the game.

    Cheer up, two more teams are outside the 8 because we played them. :laugh:

    They will be tough but I reckon we are finding a groove and expect us to be competitive at the very least. I thought the attitude last night was exemplary of how we need to play against those sides.

    There was a 10 minute patch where the umpiring was killing the Pies v Crows match. But it has turned into a craacker of a game now.

    Adelaide are good but if you keep missing easy opportunities in front of goal Collingwood will make you pay. 

    Pies are an excellent contest team with Sidebum, de Goey, Crisp, Mitchell, etc.

    Suns winning is a great result for us death riders. Confident that Richmond are a better team than Freo and we really want Freo to finish below the Suns. 👏

    Also takes the pressure off the Suns coming into next week against us.

    ABC commentators lamenting draw with Tigers, Pies, Druggies not going so well after 5 day break. 
     

    We got North. 
    Maybe we should play Essendon and Pies v Tigers either side of Anzac Day short breaks.

    Flip side of that is it gives them a bit of confidence before our game.
    Also no way we take them lightly now considering Richmond gave us a good game last week.

    Tigers had six day break.

    What the squelch just happened at half time of Pies-Crows?

    Noble obviously slipped down to deliberately draw a high contact, but Dawson then clearly caught him 'actually' high, Rankine decides he needs to prove to the world he's a git by running over to shove Noble while he's lying flat, and then Maynard comes in and has some kind of epileptic fit while holding Rankine's collar.

    Bizarro juvenile times all round.

    You can add Richmond to the list of teams not winning the week after playing us.

    • 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.
