Still, it presents an opportunity for those at Casey who are pressing for senior selection.

Oh, wait …

    I think some peeps have been a bit spoiled.. I wish I could make it so that when you jump-off this quickly you can’t enjoy the high-rides but I know where you’re coming from and would’ve once felt similar but this is a perfect day for a team that’s choc-full of confidence and we’re barely there! Maybe this is a butt-smashing we need?
     

     No reason it can’t be.. I choose to keep faith, everything’s going right for them and it’s evident they’re chasing in. I can’t smash a team that’s given me so much resounding reasons to trust them.. I mean look at that Serong Goal for goodness sake off back if DARCY lucky goal and Frederick boundary goal, that’s just bananas & good on em!

    We’ll bounce back next week.. you don’t lose ability overnight for goodness sake! 
     

    Harden up ppl, it’s a crappy day — move fwd.  

     

    We will make the eight.

    We will be seventh.

    This is a club very much in decline as evidenced by the players we have recruited and kept in Schache, Hunter, McAdam, Fullerton, Bbb....to name a few.

    Where players like Petty gets gifted game after game because there is simply no replacement.

    We need to rebuild our list and that takes time.

    Today is not an aberration. It happened two weeks ago against the eagles. And before that to Carlton and the lions.

    We can be competitive but the difference between our best and worst is vast.

    Our once touted midfield is alas no longer functioning like it used to and we have one good fwd in Fritta.

    Today is ample proof of our deterioration.

    Petty has one disposal in three quarters of football. Needs to be dropped ASAP.

    Have you ever played footy at an elite lvl and had an opponent steamroll you? It’s no fun & putting pressure on isn’t the issue that got us to this point, least of our worries in this game!

    Absolutely wrong.

    They are doing as they please under no pressure at all.

    The year we won the flag our pressure was manic.

    That was my point.

    whether I personally have played footy at an elite level or not is completely irrelevant

    first possession is a handball to no one or under pressure 

    zone doesn’t work if they hit skills they run they mark.  
     

    clearances !! Smashed.  Seriously smashed.  
     

    Bowey !!! LAZY. LAZY. LAZY. MISSED TARGET FROM 10 metres. Turnover. Goal Freo.  
     

    missed tackles.  Can’t hold them !!! 
     

    Dees look hopeless with the footy. Indecisive!!! Lack skill.

    So you are OK with a premiership type list being smashed week in and week out by mediocre opposition?

    It's clear this team is not good enough this year, let's stop pretending otherwise.

     

    How is this team losing a game of footy by 82 points? At 3Q?? 

    Gotta be honest I turned off a long time ago because I choose life, but checking in here and there and this is beyond woeful. Nightmare stuff.

    The Jackson goal in that quarter, I can’t remember that style of goal happening in the Goodwin era. Witches hats. Used to see it every quarter in the dark days. This is as bad as it gets. I’m sure olisik’s and poita’s fingers are warm. 

    Some things are clear 

    we do not deserve to be in the top 8

    our forward coach needs to be changed. But we all knew that.

    our midfield needs a freshen up. 
    some recruits do not need to play again and I include some in Casey. Change the bloooody  lot 

    and the backs need a break,

    the coaching staff and whom ever picks the side needs help,

    God help us   ( I hope she can) 186. Must have been mind blowing

    I'm looking forward to the upcoming changes this week.

    Out: Hunter. In: Billings... fun times.

    Can we please send Goodwin via bus/coach back to Melbourne?

    Doesn't deserve to take the plane, and take some of the players too.

    Surely silly Goodwin will give the spot to Woewodin?

     

    We are a mediocre team at present and getting shown up by a lot of teams.

    Something has to change because it's not good enough.

    • 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.
