    I've been hard on Melksham but he's getting rewarded for form in the VFL.

    He'll add much more then what Spargo and Jordon have of recent.

    Has @WalkingCivilWar made the trip? Saw some Demon Army people there at the ground yesterday.

    I’ve not. Would need to have robbed a bank in order to go, and robbing banks is so 1980s.

    There aren’t many from the DA there this year but those who are will bring the noise just as loudly as we do every match.

    Happy to report the giant Harmesy graphic made it to the ground last night having spent a worryingly long time on the tarmac at whatever airport. It was flown separately due to time constraints.

    GO THE MIGHTY DEES!!!!

    Fair point. So much for the Petty experiment.

    All of about 100 people there. Surely it’s time for a rethink on this game. I’d rather sell it elsewhere if we have to

    We get the money even if no one turns up, and it's all about the money.

    A lot of the crowd are, I think bussed in from surrounding areas. I assume the weather warnings put a stop to that this year

    This is my least favourite game day of the year. All I can think is that I would be there if the game was in Melbourne, and how much I love live footy.

    We'll agree to disagree Bin

    Bowey certainly has the tank and can play this role plus damage with ball in hand forward of center

    Def agree to disagree on tank - no chance bowey had the tank or high cruising speed of nibbler - an ability that is fundamental to the role.

    They are completely different types of athletes.

    And for context, unlike nibbler  who never comes out of the side, bowey was dropped for a big chunk of last season and has played at Casey tgis year too. Whilst nibbler 

    But leaving that aside, it makes little sense to take Bowey away from his best position as a distributor of half back and make him a high half forward, a role he has never played.

    And even less sense to take nibbler away from a specialist role he has trained and played in over three seasons and made his own to such a high level he is a clear best 22 lock. 

    I mean a few years back, they  encouraged him to look at other clubs. He stayed, and has played so well in that position that the club put him in the leadership group and resigned him on a new contract.

    I can't see how today's game is possibly of any financial gain vs having the game at the MCG. There must be 2k people there. If that. The cost to get there. Accommodation. I really can't wait until we stop doing this.

    Ugh I’d forgotten how depressing it is to watch us play on TV at home.

    It could be minus 7 degrees and I’d be there. ☹️


    It's gonna be one of these types of games. Hopefully we've learnt how to play wet 

     

    This is going to be a big slog of a game

    • 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.
