Preparation… ?!?!?!!!?!

Simon Goodwin will coach the Dees versus the GWS Giants on Saturday night despite spending the past three nights in hospital.

Goodwin copped an infection at the start of the week that required an intermittent IV drip.

He was part of team meetings via Zoom during the week and discharged on Saturday morning.

Can't question the bloke's commitment.

    No, not dead, he won't get fined by the police, but the AFL Commish own the game and they set the rules, of which the players have agreed to and signed off on

    Sounds like a gag order to me 

    I hope we can do so much better in Australia 

    TMac is still in tracksuit top talking to staff on the sidelines during the warmup?

    Yep .

    Not a fan of number 20 either         ( Nichols).

    Yeah, nah.

    Not 20

    Definitely not 22.

    Or 35, or 14,

    Not overly fond of 25 or 19 either 

    There must be one that’s okay?

    Maybe? 
    Can anyone think of one?

    Ivo Crapp was a much better umpire than his surname would suggest.

    Lady at the gate said they’re expecting 23,000. I think they overestimated by 20,000.

    I'd say so, almost feel like I have to ask someone for a key to get in.

    Props to all you have fronted up at the G tonight to root for us.

    No puns on root please .

    Embarrassing turnout. It’s not even raining. 
    Really poor. Don’t complain when we get 4.40 Sunday games all year.

    Ridiculous huh. They’ve made him delete the comments. Truth hurts, clearly. 

    Absolutely. 
    He should’ve stuck to his guns. 
    There is more than enough evidence to support his claim.

    I understand keeping a lid on the umpire criticism, but The Corporation should not be immune from criticism.
    They are not the CCP.

    The giants song is pretty catchy

    Makes me think of a Disney / Pixar animated movie about big-footed little people. Maybe like in Frozen - those rock people. 

    GWS song is a bop. I’ll hear nothing bad about it.

    Apparently Angus from Cat Empire wrote it. Quality.

    It really is a pitiful crowd. I reckon North might have got more down in Hobart today.

    Very much so, one of the more robust tunes.

    Gee just read goody was in hospital for 3 days. Gee that's no good.

    Anyway at least the rain has cleared for now.

    Robbo is going to have a tough night getting the crowd going

    • 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.
