    If you had told me at the start of the year that our midfield would become our worst performing area, I’d call you crazy. I’ve got more faith in our forwards than I do in our mids.

    Also, I fear for the crowd size next week. Port could out number us.

    Any injuries, put those players on ice and get the kids in. Load up for 2025.

    i doubt we will win another game this year. such a pitiful performance, we allow the opposition to run around all by themselves and at times we dont even chase them.

    35 shots to 14. Season on the Line

    Big changes inside the Club are needed 

    Top to Bottom, we need change

    Yep, get the off-season surgeries out of the way early.

    The easiest thing to turn around in footy is a midfield but we also need another KPD, Stevie May as great as he’s been is close to done

    50 point loss against a team coming off a 5 day break is damning. just not up for the fight tonight at all.

    Very disappointed. I expected better

    Thank God they only had a5 day break

     

    Pretty sure we were assured they would crumble in the 2nd half

     

    I actually thought the players had a go and never gave in. 

     

    This is all on the coaching staff that are clueless.

    Well, that was pretty sad and boring to watch.

    Actually thought we were becoming a dependably competitive team there for a while, but that's a distant memory now.

    1 x compromised premiership and zero finals wins in the next 3 seasons is a travesty for this group.  Very disappointing.

    Not our best capitulation, but another fine effort within the Badloss School of Under-developed Footballing.

    Absolutely smashed. Should have been 100 points.

    It’s kind of fitting and sad that the doggies did this to us tonight. We smashed them to win a GF to herald what we thought was a dynasty and they have smashed us not even 3 years later to close our door. Is it closed for this year? Or for good with this list? I don’t know. But all I know is they must have felt good ending our season.

    We were terrible.

    Cant believe I’m saying this, but can we do a turnaround like the dogs? They were lost last year, slid out of the 8 as we have and started poorly this year. It can be done, but it takes honesty and hard work. 

    I may hold my 20+ year membership next year, unless I see we’re actually going to perform a review on what has happened. I know we lost Gus and Trac but that does not mean effectively 100 point loss. We didn’t lose to an invincible either. 

    Lots of questions to be asked at year end.

    sad tonight, friends. That was woeful. 

    We will always have 2021 I guess ❤️💙

    Yep. 

    Defensively a very weak performance again - this is becoming a trend. Weak in the contest, weak in transition, weak 1v1 down back. 

    We're a shell of what we once were. And I don't think it's coming back.

    No cohesion, midfield non-existent, backline a mess.

    Bowey finally looking like his old self, one of the few shining lights.

    The dynasty should have come in the years we went out in straight sets, and we mostly have ourselves to thank for that. How bloody pathetic.

    • 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.
