I went down to Casey fields with my son today for the junior members clinic. What a great day out!

The players give so much time to the kids they absolutely loved it. There where hundreds of mini red and blue fans there and everyone got autographs so proud of the club for putting these on, it means a lot to all of us.

Thanks Dees

    Agreed!
    Was a great day and the way they handled and engaged about one thousand excited kids was exceptional.

    Well done club and players.

    This sounded awesome! My son is a junior member through my MCC/MFC premium membership and I hadn't heard [censored]ut this. Was it advertised? I might need to give the club a call and enquire why we didn't receive any emails about it.

    We just received an email a few weeks ago. Just good ol' GA family members sitting with the people at the people's ground.

    Alright this is a bit much now.  We just had a phone call from Steven May wanting to speak to my junior membership son and thank him.

    "Hi is ... there? it's Steven May".

    What a bloody legend! When I was his age I was the only kid wearing a Dees jumper at a country footy clinic with my hero's number on the back (who won't be named) and the #%&*# gave me nothing. 

    Should have kept it for the boy though he loves Salo.

    I went to the same school as a well known dees player. Year above me.

    Pillock who was the very definition of a self absorbed alfa jock who when he became a dees player contradicted de la soul.

    My daughter just got a call from Trent Rivers.

    Was so star struck she forgot what number he was when he asked and couldn’t remember what games she’d been to this year. 
    Lovely bloke on the phone and one very happy young girl.

    • 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.
