Now the AFL call inequality just a fixture quirk, and note another example 

 

Terrible news for Jagga. One of my kids favourites from the u/18 crop and a very well spoken young man. Pretty sure the first social media post the Blues put up after drafting Jagga included my son with his Dees jumper on!

Get the feeling Carlton rolled some dice to get a midfield gun into the team to support Walsh & Cripps whilst in their peak, so this will be especially flattening for them. Long term am certain Jagga will come back strong. Will be a star.

Shocking news for the kid. He can take example from our own Christian Petracca who also suffered a torn ACL in his first year at the club, worked hard to come back (and from the experience of some of my own family members who have undergone that surgery, it’s hard work) and win a Norm Smith, a premiership medallion and acclaim as one of the great players of our game.

Good luck Jagga!

Not that much luck!

cruel news for the kid. This year will feel like an eternity.

Poor young man. As if being named "Jagga" wasn't bad enough.

You have to have sympathy for the poor devil.

the ssp won't be extended

it's now a case of waiting til the mid season draft to be able to bring a player on to the list, if determined that it's worthwhile doing so

How things change 🙂

Heartbreaker (Doo Doo Doo)

AFL to intervene how?

make the games non contact?

More injuries happen in training and intraclub games 

What is Hardwick going on about - better scheduling > fewer injuries???

But is pushing into packs in causing injuries then that is something the AFL could potentially do something about. (Couldn’t read the story due to HS paywall)

A case could be made the High-Performance Manager is now the most important nonplaying role in footy, including senior and assistant coaches.

Not necessarily. We gave Adelaide Darren Burgess and they still haven't made finals in the 3 years that he has been there.  Horse to water?

Fines mean nothing - if it is deliberate and dangerous suspension is the only deterrent.

  • 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.
