This time there won’t be a 40-minute singalong to Sweet Caroline & Take Me Home, Country Roads.

Hashtag get some more songs, Gabba!

 

Was Salo at the Capitano run today?

Have almost given up worrying about the result. Mostly interested in how the young ones go.

I feel the same way, given the coaching, demands/injuries/limited reliance and selection(s) this year! Giving the 'younger ones' the opportunity in the AFL team is paramount for improvements in '25. Fresh rounds in the magazine, so to speak. If they can hit the target, they will still kill.

Midfielders, bombing = little game play for Chandler other than what he picks up on the side with extraordinary efforts. Lowering eyes from the midfield, Chandler gets space, gets goals.

Our forward entries could best be described as atrocious.

    So bad, it totally negates Fritta, JVR, Chandler, resting rucks, flankers, utilities ... and the midfielders, themselves.

    With respect, I sincerely hope we mess up your tips this week ❤️💙

    I had a dream on Tuesday night we were winning in the 3rd quarter by 5 goals, then it becomes all blurry after that.

    😂😂😂

    I didn't see him there.

    He trains fully. Has been for a while now. I’ll be shocked and disappointed if they make him come back through Casey. 

    He has been training and now full training for some time but he has had a minor set back a little while ago but not his knee. Coming back through the reserves were his words. Personally I would hope one week at Casey only because of the length of time he has been out.

    But would I be surprised if he came straight back in?

    Definitely. It’s been several weeks now with no sign of improvement 

    I was thinking maybe just a 🤔 for this, W, but, what the heck...

    This muted, arms length response contrasts with your previous inner-sanctum reporting from the Fritsch camp.

    Should we be worried?


    Little doggie man omitted- what a joke! Club is a mess!

    Strange selection with Lever, May, Tomlinson, JVR, Turner, TMac and Petty in the side

    maybe Turner will be the sub?


    Kynan dropped after 5 minutes of play, what a pointless selection then last week. Good coach we have 🤮[censored] joke.

    He will then have Woey as a sub again and give him no opportunity. 
    You would look elsewhere if you had half a chance.

    Not sure about May, Lever, TMac and Tomlinson all in the side. 

    Are we planning on TMac or Tomlinson playing forward? Or May or Lever playing small? 

    Not a fan of Brown being dropped after 10 minutes of game time and I’d prefer we don’t make AMW sub, so presumably Woey cops it again.

    Yeah I’d be pretty cheesed off if I was K.Brown right now. Like what more could he have done last week? Winning the game for us wasn’t enough? I hope the communication to him has been clear.

    Not at all Tim. I’m still very close friends with Pauline Fritsch. We speak every other day and see each other often. Bayley just happens to be her son. I have a son the same age as Bayley, and Pauline and I don’t talk much about either of them.

    I can’t deny he’s currently in a form-slump. I mean, I’m delusional. But I’m not that delusional 😅

    I'm just getting frustrated with this incessant desire to not reward anyone who shows some ticker. 

    He'll be back I'm sure, just for god's sake don't make AMW sub or this place will be torn apart.

    I hate them dropping Brown even more than I hated them playing him as the sub last week. Way to just [censored] all over the kids head.

    Kynan dropped after 10 mins of play, a gamewinning tackle and a kick to advantage. Wtf mate honestly

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
