    JVR or Jefferson done much ? 

    JVR (blue) was not oustanding but competing hard IMO.  Rewarded himself with a goal from 15m while being tackled after a contest and collect.  Jeffo (white) and AJ (white) really didnt see much of it while I was there.  White held up for the first 10-15 minutes but the last i saw they were down 14 to 60 odd (? really wasnt paying the score much attention) late in the third.

    McAdam possibly ahead of Jeffo for a round 1 spot by the sounds?

    That’s a Picket Fence nightmare right there.

    Would say so. I’d probably have AJ ahead of Jeffo too, though note that neither AJ nor Jeffo swapped onto the ‘A’ side during the last quarter.

    Apparently injured?

    Yes, McAdam injured his leg and took no further part in the match.

    Rivers played on-ball all game.  He didn't play in defence.

    Bowey played defence all game, despite his goal.

    If I get time I'll add some more thoughts.

    Was he helped off or walk unaided? (sorry, too soon?)

    There's footage of him being carried off by 2 trainers on 'myheartbeatstrue' instagram page, he wasn't putting any weight through the left leg

    The real question is did he walk off himself or was he carried off by the trainers? 
     

    Joking joking, in all seriousness I hope he’s okay, poor bugger just can’t seem to get a run at it

    Roy George here we come. Seriously I hope McAdam hasn’t done anything beyond a minor sprain and will be back on track in a week or two. Fingers crossed.

    I reckon they'll go with Jai Culley if the opportunity arises, he's been very impressive from what I've seen.

    • 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.
