    On the assumption that Scott has (and does) show this type of bias, it is very disappointing.

    Think whatever you want of how he presents publically, he is one of the most influential people on modern AFL through his tactical approach to coaching at AFL level. It tarnishes what should be a great reputation.

    I think Oliver returning to form on Saturday will help Petracca.  He’s been struggling with 100% attention whilst Oliver’s been injured.  
     

    My thinking exactly. WHen Oliver gets to his elite self, he will attract a tag, that will free up Petracca.

    The one dis on Trac is his defensive game. He needs a more defensive presence, which can be then used to work the tag to our advantage. He needs to improve this.

    Scott - nepotism at its most flagrant.

    Scott is a tool. He lost but likely gave his players 5 vote and 4 vote outcomes.  Coaches votes are a joke.

    Salty Chris Scott is one of the main reasons I enjoy beating the Cats. 

    He thinks his players were off but also thinks his players were the best on the ground. Make up your mind Chris! 

    He takes losses worse than some Demonlanders and it's glorious to watch. 

    (I know, I know, we don't know for sure how he voted. But I think it's a pretty safe bet).

    They should just save time for the next one and give Max the votes now.

    But how do you know who Scott voted for?  He could have given Lever five votes for all we know.

    There is not a snowflakes chance in hell that Goodwin gave 5 votes for Holmes.

    Scott is a great coach, was a better than average footballer, not a bad bloke in person.

    ...but the whining in his press conferences and disrespect to opponents is not doing him any favours.

    I thought Holmes was best on. Lever was great but O.Henry did get away for 3 goals.

    Holmes, Lever, May then

    4 - Guthrie
    3 - May
    2 - Gawn
    1 - Petty

     

    There's a few other way to get the same outcome, which sees Goody give May 1 vote instead of Gawn and a bit of shuffling from Scott. But the bottom line is how Scott didn't find room on his votes for Hawkins, Cameron, Danger and Rohan. 

    Well, Danger did not play so don't see how he could have given him a vote..  Ahhh sorry, you are correct... We are speaking about Scott ... that makes sense ( or no sense in his mind).

    I've thought Scott was a bit of a you-know-what for a while, but the Pettiness to rate his players as bog in this game rather than just suck up the fact that he lost is pretty damning.

    Who gave what to whoever is of course debatable.  But your reasoning seems ok.

    only way for Holmes to get 8. Is to get a 5 and 3.

    petts got 1 vote Max and May shuffled

    3 and 0.    And 2 and 1 .    No other way.  That leaves Kossy 4 and 0

    Lever 5 and 0

    and Guthrie on the 4 and missing 2

    What a lot of fun. 
    it does highlight the difference in the coaches   That Lever  and Kossy were not considered a threat by one coach but we’re by the other. At least Guthrie and Holmes got votes from both. There is no guarantee that Scott gave his boys 4 and 5. 
     Go Dee’s. I do hope we have planned to come out hard against the blue baggers. 
     

    their last minute win last year gave me the shirts.   Quiet all day then we panic and kick it to them twice in the last minute or so  and they think they were champions.

    Right in front of me as well.

    It beggars belief that Lever didn't get 10 votes imo. I thought he was clearly the best and most influential player on the ground on the night. I guess one of the reasons he was so influential was that Scott didn't rate his game as worth trying to curtail.

    • 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.
