Sorry adonski but you have to watch him live to appreciate his value to the team.

    Viney in the back not paid sums up why AFL is so frustrating for all supporters 

    It was the lack of htb calls today that killed me.

    Viney absolutely huge. Defence was so solid. May, Lever, Thommo, Hibbo was fantastic, Rivers got better and better after a shakey start.

    Smith - so happy for him doubling his career goal tally today. Felt he started to look/feel at home at the level as the game wore on. Makes things interesting when Petty comes back.

    Roo - crucial goal and did a lot of good things. Fritsch looking much more like his usual self - assuming he's worked through his foot issues from earlier.

    Pathetic effort by the Pies publicising the supposed covid +flu sweeping their group this week. If the shoe was on the other foot we'd be crucified in the media for buttressing the excuse train like that.

    We dominated that game. Make no mistakes this is the Port game in reverse. We kick straight and it’s a 6 goal win. 
    Absolutely brilliant performance missing two very important players. 
     

    I want to give a massive shout out to Smith and Tomlinson. Played perfect team roles. 
    And McVee and JVR who are delivering beyond their years. 
     

    A performance that makes you so proud. What an effort! 
     

    Tomlinson has stepped in and played the third tall Petty role (which was the Tomlinson role pre-ACL) very well.

    We badly missed that third tall back man while the Petty forward experiment was ruining both the forwardline and backline.

    Wow.  Thought May had cost us that.. Very shakey.  

    In reality should have been a 6 goal win, but we are devoid of confidence up front.  WHEN WILL IT END.

    Defence was awesome today.  Contested ball amazing.

    Special mentions to Joel Smith for competing - and the first halves of Judd McVee and Salem in particular.  I forgot how good Salem is, he just calms everyone down and some of the targets he hits, so good.

    Disappointing again to get nothing out of Pickett, Spargo & Chandler.  Leaving too much for Fritta, we really need them to step up now.  Brayshaw was awful in the first quarter but battled on and got some useful touches.  Trac built and built but so wasteful!

    Still painful to watch but we just beat the flag favourites.

    Amazing coaching performance and team effort. Our structure was set up really well and clogged them up in the right places.

    God King is an insufferable [censored]. He used to love us and now sucking Collinwood's d.

    Other than that an unbelievably dominant win, should've been 40+ points. We look to be back to our 21' Premiership winning best. We can do it this year, no team is untouchable!

    If i would ask 1 question....

    Is Chocco the best goal kicking coach going around? Its seems it was almost an afterthought when he was appointed. Surely this is an area in the modern game that seems to be overlooked. Cant we go out and get the best we can?

    Goal kicking aside, offensive pressure just terrific - Pies absolutely [censored] themselves in there, so did we though but trapped it in 8 times out of 10.

    Not going to pretend that Van Rooyen was best on ground and I'm not going overcook the praise for what was overall just a pretty good game, but...

    Van Rooyen didn't miss.

    On a level with the Harmes-to-Fritsch clearance kick in the Grand Final for turning point moments.

    And as he ran in for the shot he looked... happy. It was uncanny. It was as if he already knew it was a goal.

    Umpire pooped his pants in the last ten minutes. Starting with the holding the ball that was called a push in the back. 

    Having said that, go you mighty, mighty Dees. With the icing in the cake being a little more light shone on Mason Knobs

    From AFL Members, lots of scattered pockets of empty seats. 83k seems spot on.

    Embrace the imperfections people, we got it done!

    Spot on!

    It’s still only June - plenty of time to iron out the kinks and perfect our system and structure.

    We just put the filth back in their place - let’s bask in that for a while!

    Suspect umpiring in the last.  Petracca in the back, Viney not in the back, Brayshaw being hung onto when they got that last clearance.  Almost like they wanted it to go down to the wire.

    Shouldn't have been that close anyway.  Good win!

    Like Tomlinson down back - is very reliable and good for Levers game. 

    one of the weaker forward lines it must be said.  Did well today though.

    • 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.

      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.
