    To both. AFL is a tough gig these days. Talent alone doesn't necassarily get you very far.

    Nine years on AFL lists is pretty impressive, even if his career didn't reach great heights. I still don't know what we were expecting from him this year.

    Selecting him over Grundy during the finals was criminal by those involved

    Grundy asked not to be selcted. He was out the door

    Sad that it didn’t work out for Josh and for us, but it didn’t. 
     

    Does that mean that FullArton will get another year (maybe he does anyway but I am unsure of his contract status)?

    Yep, he's got another year to go for his contract.

    3 AFL Clubs so clearly very close. Thank you Josh, I had high hopes we could help unlock what was needed for you to be a regular contributor. Best of luck in your future endeavours.

    No the worst mistake was not using Schacky from about 5 mins. Before 3/4 time instead of Tmac. 

    The use of the Sub rule even in the GF in 2021 was sad ( like Heppell’s goodbyes at Marvel)  and Simon has not improved in 3 years further. In fact it needs a Royal Commission!!!

    Having the all of around five gamer Laurie as the sub when Gus went down wasn't exactly a great move.

    The bloke had zero experience but chosen for a final.  Still boggles the mind.

    Not sure what Goody was thinking then.

    That was when only medical subs could be used. Harmsey tried to fake an injury to get Jordan on. Should have tried harder.

    • 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.
