Well Essendon can't make finals so not fussed. But I see weiderman is back.

I notice tipungwuti is bring given a farewell game. Be interesting to see how much time he'll play. 

Why would Prestia be managed? Just play the final game.

    I will laugh if Essendon win tonight.

    It feels like this season has one more little twist to it.

    Why try in the last round when you can improve your draft hand by 2 places.

     

    The other big attraction for the cats will be dropping into the bottom 6 to get the easier draw. Play harder teams (like us) at the Cattery and easier teams on the road and the Geriatric Hobby Farmers might be on again…

    We did see on 360 the Monday before. Matthew Nicks "we have to trust the Goal Umpires, I just hope it doesn't happen to us"

    What's that got to do with Demonlands reaction????

    Hmmmm I'd like to see the reaction on here if it was us instead of the Crows.

    I dont care. I cant stand the crows. They've won heaps of home games under controversial circumstances.

    Melbourne didnt complain about the lying cheat Carlton players. Its all about poor little Adelaide.

    Stuff em, who cares?

    Don’t laugh. If Pies lose we are odds on to play Brisbane at the Gabba in week one of finals. No. Thank. You.

    What if the AFL set draft positions (for bottom 8 teams only) in RD 22,  unless you go on to make finals? That way teams that can still make finals in R22, will be too far out to purposefully try and lose as it only sabotages their finals chances? Also means R23 & R24 have no impact on draft selections unless you drop out of the top 8. And if you drop out of the 8 with one round left, that means you can still get into finals. As you’ll only be percentage or a game out. 

    Won’t cover everything but should at least mean only the 15th/16th/17th/18th teams will try and lose to secure draft positions in RD22 (which is what’s happening with field tactics anyways). 

    What about a draft lottery similar to the NBA? Bottom 5 clubs get different tiers of chances to get the first pick and so forth.

    Oh yeah, that probably makes much  more sense than my suggestion!

    cos he wants to be traded to gc17 or the bears

    tigs not risking him knackering his calf in a meaningless game before they evaluate trade options

    i'm amazed north are playing mckay

    I don't think we have celebrated the Cats' missing finals enough! "We are the Danger" - said their coach, only a few weeks ago. Just glorious I tell ya' @Jaded No More

    How [censored] would you be if you supported GWS?

    If the AFL had any integrity it wouldn't allow off season surgeries before the end of season.  The Cats would normally always beat the Dogs at home but now the dogs look odds on

    So the Giants go from finals certainties to needing to beat the form team of the comp just because the Cats won't play out the last game like professionals and pick their strongest team

    imagine if the shoe was on the other foot. Scott would be losing it

    umm no they haven't. they are literally saying FU to the comp like the Cats are, and ruining any chance of a contest tonight

    I want the top 4 to remain as is, really want the Pies as our week 1 victims!

     

    Also want Freo to lose, Suns to win, rest of round I don’t care about 

    Why Suns, if Roos win we could possibly do a deal with WC for 1?

    It won’t happen of course.

    Pies are in shocking form, they need a win. Besides there are no guarantees Brisbane beat Saints. We can still finish 3rd.

    I care in a roundabout way. With all the blues inclusions I'm hoping Marchbank is an emergency or sub. 

    Touched it my a....e.

    I think the saints win last week was more about showing how poor the cats are now.

    Lions are a cut above saints and will show this  shortly.

    If not then huge kudos to Ross

    • 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.
