Brayshaw?? Not in my top 10 today. Serviceable at best.  

I thought he was pretty bloody good in the CB gets behind only Viney. 
Was pivotal in a lot I50 entries.

    Just got home.  What an epic game of footy.  Well done to both teams.  Max Gawn played perhaps the best second half I've ever seen today.  He imposed himself on the game in a way that only he can do.

    6. Gawn

    5. Viney.

    4. Petty

    3. Petracca

    2. Melksham

    1. Pickett

    JVR is going to be a very good footballer, which we all already knew.  He loves body contact - the hallmark of most of the better big forwards.

    6.  Gawn  -  a Colossus again.  What a leader!

    5.  Viney  -  behind Max, but another outstanding, ‘lead from the front’ performance

    4.  Petty -  6 goals and only 4 votes. A revelation.

    3.  Melksham  - getting better by the week since his return.

    2.  Neal-Bullen  -  a consistent work-horse who plays one of the hardest positions on the field.  Doesn’t get enough recognition.

    1.  Lever -  just typical Jake.

    Plenty of others who I couldn’t squeeze in including Riv, Lingers,Tracc & Hunter.

    6. Petty - come on guys, clunked it, kicked 6 and kicked a ripping snap

    5. Gawn - a colossus later in the game but was actually beaten early 

    4. Petracca - beast mode

    3. Viney - really solid midfield game 

    2. Rivers - got lucky with some Riv shanks but just loved his drive and energy 

    Hard for the 1 vote, could go Langdon, Lever, Gus, Melk, JVR, Pickett

    1. ANB settled ok Nibbler because he rebounded from early shockers to be good and did a job on Rioli who’s incredibly dangerous and had limited impact

    2 - Milkshake - accuracy

    1 - Roo - he’s gunna be a beauty

    ANB, Riv, Rick, Ed, Gus, Kozzie and everyone that pulled on the Red & Blue today. What a great win.!!!!

    A bit mystified by votes to Bowey and McVee. 

    Think with McVee people are confused whether he was responsible for any of Dusty's goals. I think only one was on McVee. The others were from the midfield where as far as I could see Brayshaw was responsible for him.

    By the numbers;

    6 Max Gawn

    5 Harrison Petty

    4 Jack Viney

    3 Christian Petracca

    2 Ed Langdon

    1 Alex Neal-Bullen

    Honourable mentions:

    Jake Melksham

    Jacob Van Rooyen

    Kysaiah Pickett

    Trent Rivers

    Jake Bowey

    Jake Lever

     

    Special mention;

    James Harmes after a woeful start became an effective team contributor.

    Adjudication;

    After the ledger was rather skewed for 3/4's the final balance was acceptable. Tiger fans may feel the rough end at the end but footy like life sucks sometimes.

    Broadcasters;

    Nathan Jones talks sense, Patrick, Rodney Dangerfield is much funnier, Luke Darcy had a belated conversation on the road to Damascus after being tiger terrific most of the afternoon.

    From the director's chair;

    A terrific game of footy with high stakes. The Demons' ability to absorb pressure and repeated momentum swings late in the season is really giving the faithful something to believe in. With Captain Max leading the victorious charge to the final siren. Bravo!

    6. Petty with 6. Also 7 marks inside 50, we don't win the game without him for mine.

    5. Gawn - 22 contested possesions for a ruckman with 9 in the last quarter is absolutely insane.

    4. Viney - That man is made of granite. 32 possessions, 9 tackles, 7 clearances. This is the best patch of his career.

    3. Trac - Possibly a few misses away from being higher. The master of the score involvement with 13.

    2. Lever - 9 Intercept possessions, tough day for the backline but he was great.

    1. Melksham - Played his role to absolute perfection and dobbed some beauties.

    Apologies Brayshaw, Rivers, Langdon.

    I’m not confused  at all. It was one of his poorer games.

    • 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.
