Yeah. We had randoms sitting in front and behind us all night in N53. Dees and Cats supporters. They would sit for a quarter and then be replaced by other randoms. 

Is because the MCG no longer checks tickets. It's appalling. I don't know what they can be thinking.

    If you set 2021 as the standard you will be disappointed. That season was elite. 

    Do you think we are a contender in 2023 or not?

    We weren't, we lost our two finals.

    I think we need to be putting more score on the board for us to be a genuine contender. 

    It is simply not sustainable for our defence having to continually keep the opposition scores less than our own when we aren’t scoring heavily ourselves.

    Do you all think Danger would have made a difference?

    As he wasn't there it doesn't  matter.  but think about all the games in the past when the opponent had key players out and we thought it was our chance and some random would pop up and dominate us.   So you play the best the opportunity can put up to us.  And we beat them.

    Chris Scott is one of the main reasons that I hate Geelong with the fire of a thousand suns. 
    He is the single most arrogant, self righteous, ignorant piece of trash in the AFL. 
    What a sore loser.

    Embarrassing game day thread as always. So little faith in the boys. 
     

    Great match. Great result. And eat [censored] Geelong 👏🏼

    Except my stuff in the gameday thread. That was just class, like Windsor.

    I agree with him for out team 5-2 ism good enough, we should have been 6-1 (Sydney were good) I take it saying with our talent, we should be at the top and we needed to show it tonight and we did.  Go Dees.

    Looks like we're watching in tandem. 

    We apparently haven't been good enough in the last 3 years for the quality of the list. 

    I know we've had two straight set exits but 3 15+ win seasons isn't too bad.

    He's overrated apparently to some bloke named picket fairy on here.

    I sat next to demonland royalty tonight, incl @picket fence, @Bitter but optimistic and @Biffen. 

    I think you'll find picket is taking the [censored] most of the time with his comments.

    I was, however, most concerned that he 'conveniently' left his cards at home and only brought cash. And very little of that too!

    It's fair to say that the MCG cleaners will spend considerable time and gurney pressure working on the area we were sitting

    Sure. Presumably so did our 3 extra days rest.

    Maybe Bowey, Salem or Melksham would have too?

    Well where Danger is concerned I actually don't think he would have made a difference.

    Unless he did his forward thing and gave us something to think about I think our defensive structure was set for anyone they would have run through their midfield tonight.

    I don't often delight in other people's misery but beating a Scott brother always feels good.

    Yes, it’s a pity that WCE did not spoil the dons party in the west. Even a draw would’ve been hilarious.

    Scott-enfreude?

    Personally I loved watching Scott have a post-game sulk.

    Can't help thinking that Geelong fans must really, really hate us by now.

    I mean... really. We 'stole' their minor premiership, humiliated (Correction: abjectly humiliated) them in a preliminary final, and even plinked them out of the 2018 finals, and now we've busted their winning streak and possibly their whole fragile momentum.

    And on every occasion it was flu or some other tragedy.

    Can it please also be us who have finally cracked their shell of invulnerability and ended their era?

    It’s going to be hard to beat for the GOTY I reckon. That degree of difficulty on that was off the charts.

    you mean a Germ gem!

    5-2 was good enough with our injuries and draw!

    of course i wanted to deefeat Lions n swans but we were without Kozalenko You Beauty! due to Kozzi's lack of discipline.

    Germ only thinks of life from view along Hypocrite Hwy - the Family Club which promoted toughness but it was legalised thuggery IMO  (Germ, Dipper, Ayres, Jeans the leaders - did I miss anyone like Tuck?).

    Germ from one awful club and he has no idea of current footy tactics!

    Great win. Nothing more satisfying than knocking off Geelong.

    Lever and May will probably go down as our two best key defenders in history.

    what about Sud n Biff?

    did Fritta look to put ball into goal rectangle with hope someone run on and kick it thru and happenstance "kicked in"?

    Haven’t had the pleasure yet of actually watching it. I’d be surprised (disappointed) if he didn’t make mention of having to travel to the G as another reason why they just lost.  
    (I’m guessing our next home game against the kitty litter will be in 2028 at the earliest.) GO DEES

    • 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.
