Fair enough 

 

My prediction is the Tigers will throw everything they can muster at us early.

Possibly even heading into half-time in front. 

Then this particular thread will become a place of darkness. Season over. Certain players will be told to never play for us again. 

Then the more well-rounded team (ours) will systematically carve it’s way to a 42-point win. 

Hooray!

    For those unable to attend tonight's reverential and otherwise solemn ceremony prior to the game. As the stadium lights return and the game is about to begin. Forget the SEN app, mute Seven's commentary. Flip the disc onto the turntable platter and pump up the volume.

    PLAY LIST

    1. Bee Gees - Stayin' Alive (if the tiggers go hard in the first half and the Dees are behind)

    2. Dan Hartman - Instant Reply (guaranteed to happen, AFL sanctioned score review with product placement).

    3. Rick Dees -Disco Duck (give the man a guernsey)

    4. Evelyn 'Champagne' King - Shame (default if the umpiring is one -sided otherwise select dom perignon)

    5. Average White Band -Pick up the Pieces (if Richmond has momentum Maysie and the Boys may need to...)

    6. Chic - Le Freak (Bayley has broken off the chain. Nothing more need be said)

    7. Van McCoy - Do the Hustle (Max, Clarry, Tracc and Vines take command  in the centre square)

    8. Donna Summer - Hot Stuff  (Kysaiah Pickett receives nomination for AFL Father of the Year and turns it on at the 'G)

    9. KC and the Sunshine Band - Shake Your Booty (Jacob van Rooyen celebrates contract extension with a big goal)

    10. The Trammps - Disco Inferno (Dees apply the blowtorch to the now faltering tigers)

    11. Rose Royce - Car Wash (Ooze looses personal bet with Goody. Will give the Jag XE a polish as well)

    12. Earth Wind and Fire -September (expectations will be exceeded).

     

    Bravo.

    Perhaps a shout out to You ain't seen nothing yet by Backman- TURNER Overdrive.

    It ain't Disco but his namesake gets a guernsey.

    Well looking forward to watching this game on my phone from the beautiful town of Te Anau in NZ. Hoping a great days fishing is followed by a great game of footy.

    In Raglan NZ at the moment. How are you watching? VPN?

     

    Hoping for a quality game from Clayton Oliver tonight. He was absolutely dreadful defensively last game, especially in the first quarter. That's fine if he's damaging offensively, but he was just about nonexistent in both facets of the game with that hand injury.

    Quite chilly here in Melbourne now (apparent temp 11.9deg) but looks like the rain has gone and it will be a dry game..

    Arguably his weakest 4 quarter effort for the club in memory. Then again it’s hard to tackle with one hand but he rarely got into contests. Should have been rested.

    There is a wonderful scene from one of its episodes. Unfortunately I can't recall which one.

    But I'll set the scene. Beaver one afternoon had done something wrong and the Father at dinner time gave him a stern dressing down.

    The next scene at breakfast the next day has the mother saying to the father.....

    "Gee you were a bit hard on the old beaver last night".

    • 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.
