Give Petty another week....

    So Brown played really well but seems to still only have a half of good footy in him. No idea how he will pull up for next week.

    Judging by the public comments, Goodwin seems to think that Petty will find more form playing in the AFL than the twos. But from the people who went to the Casey game it seems like he's not going to be kicking bags for a few weeks.

    How did Fullerton look yesterday? 

    Second tall forward/ruck still seems the week link but I reckon Brown deserves some congrats for his game today.

     

    No change unless there’s an injury/niggle that needs managing before two games on the road in Adelaide

    6 day break. Not sure how Brown will pull up

    Petty or Fullarton in for Brown if needed

    otherwise no change. reward the team. Sparrow was down but he deserves the chance to make up for it

    I wouldn't mind see what Tholstrup can do. Perhaps a straight swap with Woey. Other than that no change. Give Petty another week to find his feet in the twos.

    I'll second getting Tholstrup in. Good match do bring him in.

    Sicily got a week for kicking out when he was targeted early. That is very soft. 

    Expect it to be overturned at appeal

    massive loss for the hawks . sicily can't seem to stay out of trouble for long no matter how many articles they write about him shedding his bad boy behaviour and becoming captain .

    can't imagine we'll wield too many, if any, changes but I too wouldn't mind seeing the Kolt unleashed on the G .

    out Sparrow.

    In Petty,

    Tholstrup sub

    Don't drop Sparrow. He will come good.

    I don't think any changes but Petty in is tempting. Play Brown for 1 more week and then bring petty in for Adelaide games.

    We simply should not consider dropping Sparrow. Didn't have the greatest of games this week but you don't through the baby out with the bathwater. Also don't drink bathwater

    i really hope we never 'debut' a player as a sub

    hate it when teams do that

    Obvious from training reports that BBB has a light program.

    If we can get him up for next week that would be great

    I see the weather is dry and 23/24 which is not too bad

    No way is Sparrow getting dropped. I’ll back him in to find some form over the next couple of 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.
