Assuming we know if that last game is a dead rubber, is there anything in the rules that would stop us playing all four emergencies and simply resting Gawn, May, Viney for example. 

Well, you push the envelope but don't cross the line

Lyon has twice rested 8 or 9 players on the eve of finals.  Brad Scott did the same

To me, it's not about resting players, more so avoiding any more injuries

As it stands, Fritsch is still out and we've run out of tall forwards who can impact games (good luck Smithy!)

    Players are routinely 'managed' throughout the season.  No rule apart from bring the game into disrepute maybe. 

    Play Casey (plus bailey for a run) in Sydney I say and give the finger to AFL HQ.

    I have read lots of posts from Pies supporters on Twitter and they seem to be OK with dropping the minor premiership.

    They don't fancy playing us at the G' and rather would play Port at the G'.

    Colliwobbles 😁😁😁

    I’ve read that too but winning from 1 from your last 5 isn’t a great form line heading into finals.

    No team has done that and went on to win the flag. It’s absolutely not what McRae was wanting. I do not care what anyone says, no coach wants their team struggling in August. 
    Doubt starts creeping in and suddenly you aren’t the scary proposition everyone thought you were. Pies in particular, have lost their greatest advantage in the last month. Teams no longer fear them. They no longer worry about getting overrun from any position. They’ve shed their cloak of invincibility. Which leaves them as just another good side in contention.

    Gold Coast will need to play on at every opportunity to even have a chance today. Can't compete defensively with Carlton.

    Flanders has 9 touches in 6 minutes

    I Put a fair bit on GC. Carlton are the biggest confidence team in the league. when their run stops, they fall off a cliff. can’t play on emotion for too long

    I’m worried about how flat Carlton are. Last week was a very hard game. I hope we don’t come out this flat.

    This looks more about preparation. They shouldn’t be flat in the first quarter. I also think the Suns match up really well in the midfield.

    Hopefully they are just flat because they made finals for the first time in a million years and have relaxed now the monkey is off their back.

    Suns are coming. They have a great midfield, a good VFL side, and are about to get handed the best academy picks ever. Hardwick knew what he was doing.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
