The way to deal with a young team like this is to hit them harder around the contest than they have been getting hit recently. Second last round I reckon they could put the queue in the rack if we make it very uncomfortable for them from the jump.

If we let them play the way they're wanting to play this could go very badly for us.

Smash them in the contest and take a 45+ point lead at HT.

Then cruise the rest of the game. If they try to come hard at us in the second half we destroy them with scores from turnovers/transitions.

 

Now that we’ve seemingly settled on our line up with the exception of Fritsch. We simply have to activate beast mode over these next two weeks heading into finals.

    I would hate to be a Hawthorn player today. This is the beginning of our run to the premiership. Today it all comes together Kossie 5, Trac 4, Oliver 42 possessions and 2 goals, Max 320 possessions and 6 goals! Heaven help the Hawks.

    GO DEES!

    Who have we held over from the Casey game? Looks like Schache and Jordan. Guessing Jordan will be the sub although maybe Schache has he can play forward and back and even ruck

    I think you may have got this one a bit jumbled rufus. 

    The correct phrase is queue in Iraq.

    According to Greg Stafford, Smith will start forward today 

    Obviously. We brought in Tomlinson. Where else would Smith play?

    Definite possibility. If we line up as expected and take our opportunities. 😜

    Might have exaggerated Oliver’s goals. 

    Craigieburn line, Dees fans outnumber Hawks 10:1.

    50k at least. My understanding is they expect 45k-55k off the back of pink lady, Gawn's 200th, and lots of free tickets given away.

    Schache sub.

    I love this. It's different by Goodwin and innovative. Gives us flexibility whether that's in the ruck or up forward.

    Interesting choice.

    Can only assume that the FD don't have much faith in either Smith or Tomlinson and will make adjustments accordingly.

    Interesting. Well we'll see what he contributes when he gets his chance

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
