When we were are at our best, we often had Brayshaw playing as a defensive midfielder (as well as an attacking mid when it suited)

Not sure that Petracca, Oliver or Viney can play that role as marking strength and the ability to spoil was part of Gus' role.  Maybe Rivers? 

Not advocating Langford at half back or on a wing (Gus also played those roles at other times), but more so at the defensive side of the midfield sweeping from side to side

We need some versatility in the midfield and that's maybe why we drafted Langford in the first place 

Of course, we could also play Langford as a forward mid or a HHF if augers well.  Right now, Langford has the base attributes so we'll soon see where it all goes from here

 

Always appreciate the outside of the box thinking Macca!

Cripps/Green are the best comparisons - he doesn't have the explosive power of Petracca (as very very few do).

To be fair, Petracca didn't have the explosive power of Petracca in his 1st pre-season either.

The role referenced fits in with defence-first mantra

Last year the average score against us was 78 points where as in the 2021 premiership year it was 65 points.  And a similar number in 2022 & 2023?

Just as long as they weren't in the arms of In Harmes Way way too long.

  • 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.

  • 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?
