Perhaps, though he was our 3rd highest for clearances behing trac and Oliver as our other mids weren't getting it done. Was a huge part of our momentum in the 3rd in my view. Got smashed all night and still provided a better target for us down the flank and wings than our other talls. He's not going to clunk contested marks in these conditions. Most of our players were poor tonight to be honest, perhaps an argument could be made for Hunter to be in there.

And finished with 22 disposals, 1 goal 2 and our second most clearances. Probably the main driver of our comeback in the third and the only one that looked like he could carry the team to victory.

I'll concede Gawn didn't play a great game. I just fail to see who played any better.

Most of our team was rubbish tonight, I don't know why I'm bothering arguing semantics about who was slightly less poor than the others.


6 May - kept us in the game during that dreadful first half.

5 Petracca - based on the second half only.

4 Oliver - also lifted his game after halftime.

3 Fritsch - at least he can kick straight.

2 Grundy - was better than Max on the night.

1 Rivers, but hard to choose on a poor night for many.

I don't think our midfield deserve any votes because when they were bad they were atrocious,. but no-one else stood up so ...

None of the mids tonight.  They were completely outplayed.

It's not that simple unfortunately. One or two mids can have good game and the whole midfield thrashed. Oliver, Viney and Petracca at least got us back in the third quarter. Supporting your argument May and Fritta were the only ones to really win their positions.

Melb's problem is the depth of it's midfield compared to the good sides. Butters, Drew, Rozee, Boak, Horne Francis, Wines, etc are better than us. Collingwood has even better depth.

  • 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.
