Outstanding win, 4 qtrs effort across all lines. Don't underestimate it, on the road, rolled the sleeves up and went to work. 

ANB BOG

Lever huge

Trac measured

Gawn leadership personified

Brown & Fritsch finishing with class

Caleb absolute Jet 

JV7's heart is as big as the Adelaide oval 

Could go on all night...soak it in!! 

💪

    I'm just wondering how many litres of bleach has gone through Dermie's hair over the last 40 years.

    Shouldn’t have won that. -21 i50s, 7 marks i50 vs 14, umpires playing catchup on the free kick count after half time. Lots against us but we were harder for longer.

    Nibbler, BBB, Fritsch did what needed to be done when it needed to be done. Their “guns” are still soft as [censored] and they can look forward to another disappointing end to the year.

    Go the [censored] Dees!!

    How about all the smashed crabs wearing Port gear in the crowd? Couldn't leave quick enough after Fritta's goal 

    That group behind Ben Browns kick were straight out of Deliverance.

    Thought Marty Hore did a good job down back. It's a pleasure having him back at the club.

    I wouldn’t say an A grader. However, he’s an improving playing even at his age. It’s more the mental now. ANB is athletic, with a tank, but a cooler head than we see. He is aging well, and he will improve. 

    What is not A grade about his current form?

    15 goals from only 45 entries is awesome

    Yeah I was skeptical after the Sydney game of our forward line, so I’ll eat some humble pie, things are working very well so I was wrong.

    Massive win. ANB was superb. 

     

    Also, well in T. Mac for getting into Rozee after that head flick during the tackle AND well done to Lever for getting the group together and getting them composed after it.

    Kade Chandler was good again tonight and playing really well to start the season. I was worried about him but he's lifted after his end of season slump last year

    Great goals from Windsor, Brown, Gawn, ANB and Fritta. 

    Loved Fritta response to the ferals over the fence after he kicked that goal from the sidleine at 50, was priceless. Didn’t look like there were too many brain cells over the fence tbh.

    Fitness - 11/10. we ran over the top.

    Midfield/stoppage/clearance - 3/10 for first 3 quarters, 15/10 for last quarter. 

    Field kicking - 1/10 for 3 quarters. 8/10 last quarter.

    Lever, Viney, Max, BBB, - epic leadership. 

    Goal kicking - 9/10.

    Umpiring was poor to both teams, no advantage. 5/10

     

    We really ran the wind out of Port, with persistence, higher levels of fitness and a more achievable 'method' moving forward. Great effort boys, inspiring outcome.

    Thought his free kicks against were bit naive. But positions himself well.

    Chandler was terrific, many times. He is like ANB, small profile, big efforts, almost a team saviour presenting himself in opportunities and creative chances. Very good goalkicker, too.

    At the end of the day nothing shuts down hearsay and innuendo like winning. 

    Nothing matters but the players in these rooms.

    I'm proud to say that today's match was the first Melbourne game I've attended interstate. 

    What a bloody win. Couldn't be prouder of the boys. 

    I just hope your car isn't on blocks. They don't take too kindly to normal people over there

    And we won with many not near their best and our No.1 backman not on the park.

    Is Thurs too early for a Maysie return 🤔

    Absolutely LOVE that we won a game where we lost the main stats and the expected score. There’s nothing better than seeing a team take their chances.

    My favourite part was Fritsch screaming “[censored] you” at the Port supporters when he kicked the sealer.

    Unfortunately I missed the first qtr, but the game looked pretty slippery even though it was a hot and dry day in Adelaide? Was that just the humidity?

    • 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.
