That's what a champion does. Let's win more footy out of the middle!

 
 

How many times are Richmond going to get away with holding the man every time we go inside forward 50 ?

    So Kozzie wins teh first clearance and has barely been back in there.

    Get him in there more.

    Funny how if you touch a guy off the ball it's [censored] city. But you can jump in to anyone and take them out

    Still a bit unclear on why Marlion Pickett is allowed to play matches right now. Will be very strange if he’s found guilty.

    Kosi has to play more in the middle. Richmond are cutting us up with pace. No Sparrow or Oliver is really hurting. 

    Poor defensive work all over the ground.

    As many as they do is the answer.

    Harmes just killing us. Hasn’t had an effective disposal and missed two sitters. Surely this is his last game

    Kozzie and Viney seemed very quiet that quarter. Pickett and Petracca needs to play more in the middle with Oliver and Sparrow out


    Need Kozzie in the middle 

    Melksham struggles to play constantly good. Chandler seems the same 

    Max lifted the last five minutes and it makes a huge difference. He's such a barometer.

     

    Everything coming off for Richmond, don't know how long that can last

    Too many passengers so far this game, need woey,  Langdon, hunter, JJ, Chandler to lift and have an impact

    Tigers scoring 1/2 entries …. It is not sustainable - expect that to dry up.

    Also need a sweeper behind the ball at stoppage.

    A wide fast shootout against the Tigers is not the way to win. 
    We have to get on top in the contested possessions or we won’t win this. If we keep the game this open they’ll keep cutting us up. 
    I understand we want to play more attacking, but when it’s not working it’s not working. We know we can win a slog so make it a slog.

    Why, thought you are innocent until proven guilty.

    No composure. 
    we have none. So many dump kicks, hurried handballs. We need to compose ourselves. 
     

    When we have a clean centre bounce we need to keep the ball lower. So many long bombs.

    Need much more from Salem, JJ, Chandler all three need to get more involved. Hunter and Langdon need to win more contests on the wing.

    Bowey’s disposal hasn’t been great.

     

    We miss Sri’s and Clarrie on days like this when the opposition loves the contest as much of not more.

    FMD you useless [censored] umpire. Blow your [censored] whistle 

    It's not the umpires who have continually fumbled and missed straight-forward shots at goal.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
