Why do you say that?

We were keen on him at draft obviously and have stayed in touch. Let’s wait and see what happens over the next few years at the Suns…

Sam Weideman is having a really good game tonight. Best I’ve seen him play I think. 
Good to see him doing well. 
 

(have just realised how handy he might be now, damn)

He’s had a few good games this year. It’s good to see him stepping up as a focal point. He’s been better than our tall forward this year for the most part!

    just showed the footage of the north interchange infringement. they had one planned last change. then Shiel hobbled off with cramp and some player ran on

    surely a sensible organisation would just say you have to pull the bloke back off. not wait a minute it’ll the ball is with 50 and hand the game to Sydney. 

    really embarrassing rule

    After his first 2 goals he kicked 3 points. Led/marked well though.

    A couple of those points weren’t from the easiest of set-shots. But yeah, he wasn’t clunking his marks this well with us.

    The problem seems to be when the penalty is called. It can be really badly manipulated, as we saw today.

    Today a free to North was then overturned to pay the interchange penalty. Is that in the rules, I would think not.

    Waiting until the ball is forward of centre guarantees a goal.

    serious question 

    does anyone else get annoyed that the camera zooms in on play and we lose the wide angle view?

    they do it more and more. take that great Cameron goal. zoomed in on him so you lose all perspective. 

    i think this might be my personal pet peeve but it would make me feel better if anyone even got what i’m taking about. god knows my wife couldn’t give a [censored]

    has there ever been a number 1 draft pick that has copped less criticism or interest than McGrath? 

    decent player but nothing special. Jack Watts must be scratching his head

    Dusty Martin is the best kick in the league by a fair margin.

    DubDee - I am with you 100% on this.  Last night there was so much zoom in that viewers had no idea about what was up the field and where anyone was aiming much of the time.  Appalling.

    Who’s the commentator that’s been sucking on the helium? 

    Is Terry Wallace back on air?

    Essendon winning on the siren makes me feel sick.

    That Richmond player that kicked it out of bounds on the full beforehand and failed to register a point was shocking

    I thought it was Wallace at 1st.
    I think it's Burgoyne.

    • 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.
