    Ben Brown makes a huge difference to our team

    Having a big fwd who will mark above his head takes a lot of attention away from Fritta and JvR and splits the defence 

    Just good to have a big presence to be mindful of as a defender as well. As long as he doesn't have to do too much defensive running he's still a good target.

    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.

    Wonderful win, we soaked up their pressure for 3 quarters and then really went to work in the last

    And here’s me 3 weeks ago saying Brown and TMac are dead and cooked. I bow before thee in great apology. That goal from Ben on 50 when the crowd’s meth had really kicked in……awesome

    Credit for putting the hand up. Very few do.

    Hung around all night, great resilience on display where Port clamped down a lot of players like Fritsch, Petracca and Pickett. ANB, Langdon, BBB were so good, great to see Windsor kick his first. All this without May. One of the best wins in Goodwin era, a genuine contender with a lot more upside to come.

    It's March you just want wins on the board, playing premiership footy now is pointless.

    Dumbest comment of the year. Did you expect us to win a different way or? Make it make sense with some people 🤦

    How awesome is accurate kicking?

    15 goals from only 45 entries is awesome

    ANB is a freak, he’s gone to an A grader this year

    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.

    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

    • 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.
