    Petty looks as if he's already signed up elsewhere. He shouldn't be playing. Maybe he isn't a fwd.

    Don't know what's going on with Viney and Tracca.

    Sparrow never really dominates.

    Billings back to Casey.

    I don't mind losing but not like this. Richmond are terrible but we are letting them win from just lazy and poor efforts.

    When have we played this badly before.

    Even if we win there needs to be a microscope on this match.

    I'm sorry but we are not top four contenders. Im not even confident we are final eight after that half.

    Yze knows it’s pressure that beats Melbourne 

    What happened to our skills ?

    Imagine if we played a good side tonight like Geelong ? Would it be a 100 point drubbing.

    Maybe last week wasn’t an abomination?

    That may be the case but most of our errors have come from disposals that are under no pressure at all. Simple basics of the game.

    Is Petty anywhere near fit enough, looks miles off it.

    Yze has put together a game plan against us & it's working.

    He knows how our players operate & being around Melbourne knows he we can also crumble 

    And what about Mini for the tigers? Can he offer up anything?

    Not an excuse IMO, we are bog ordinary.

    Kick it to someone in a Dees jumper please. That would be lovely. Thank you.

    Stay Staunch. Keep the faith.

    I think we have found out all we need to know tbh.

    We won’t be contending unless we do a complete 180.

    What pressure, most of the turn overs are under none, make you wonder wth they are thinking out there

     

    You can forget about top 4 if we lose this one.

    Richmond are on. I'll take 4pts if we can overcome the pressure. It's a great game of footy.


    Top excuses for that half of "football"

    1 Too long between games (weve got rusty)

    2. Ground too dry, we read the weather forecast and they said it would rain

    3. Jumper clash, confused by the similarities in the colours

    4. Not used to playing on Wednesday night

    5. Cant hear our team cause the crowds too big

    How do you explain the first quarter misses? Easy set shots. I honestly don’t rate Choccos goal kicking coaching.

    Assume it is blowing a gale! Only reason i can think that you miss 15 metre kicks!

    Got the binos in Clarry's hand. I'd love to see it looks good but I'd be basing that on nothing but a doctorate of sight

    Or win.

    Dunstalls full of it but summed is up perfectly..... malaise.

    I don’t even know what position Petty is playing. I don’t think he knows. 

    Or cares


    Petty in defence? Is the forward experiment over?

     

    Billings doesn't really impose himself.

    If we can get a first round pick for Petty we grab it and run

    • 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.
