GAWN AND VINEY CAPTAIN AND VICE CAPTAIN TO CASEY... JUST TERRIBLE

Yea it's not a good look with zero.marks for both.

Is Sparrow injured

2 touches...he must be. What happened?

As ugly as we are, we are still in it.

Some more intensity than last week.

Hell let's be honest. There was none at all last week. Full stop.

Jeez what a frustrating watch, but honestly a big improvement this week. Shame about some shocking umpiring. You can tell confidence is low, hopefully a bit of momentum will stay our way next half! Still definitely in this 💪

    Having Yze and McQualter leave one after the other can't have helped.

    This just comes down to who wants it more.

    Can most of team lift and drive themselves to our first win

    T-Mac's been VG down back.

    The injection of Turner up forward at least makes us look a tad more dangerous and offers another mobile marking option until JVR finally hits some lead up / marking form.

    Turner's mobility at ground level also brings a tad more pressure at ground level inside 50.

    Fritta's done ok as a link up HHF but still nowhere near it around goals in that first half.

    Tracc is driving this team hard you can see it both with effort and letting everyone know where they need to be at.

    Max also lifted in that quarter and even more so after the questionable free against him in our 50.

    Clarry, while not as his best is willing himself to so many contests and bringing alot of the little pressure acts to force turnover and/or get the ball moving forward / to our advantage where poss.

    If some of the lessor lights in the team and a severly out-of-form Viney can lift in this second half we might get close but wouldn't put any $$ on it.

    Not even Max can get the better of Old Father Time.

    He desperately needs the back-up ruck we haven't got.

    We have one TC who did pretty well in the preseason - but Goody too stubborn to play him.

    Been an issue from round one.

    Pass the hat and get some tape measures.

    It’s completely deliberate though. They’ve clearly been directed to call play on and they treat us like complete mugs.

    Get Fkkn angry Dees!

    call me crazy but I was just entertaining buying a last minute ticket and going to the game to witness a big upset. Yes, tickets are still $75!

    Play Fritsch out of the Goalsquare Goodwin FFS….

    Absolutely!


    I thought the floodgates were about to burst open, but credit to the boys for fighting back and squaring the quarter.

    Jack Henry out of the game with a hammy. He was causing us some problems early doors.

    Petty looks pretty hopeless, like he just doesn't care, why is he getting games?

    Henderson good, Milkshake, Chandler, Fritsch looking decent too is nice for a change.

    Less dropped marks but still some real easy ones, Gawn terrible dropped marks, JVR too but still we are looking better at least and still just in the game.

    Langford looks great and Trac and Viney too. Love Henderson getting kudos from Lyon, he's good.

    Petty though seriously, I hate to agree with Kane Kornes but he said it spot on the radio this morning you'd be wrapped if you found out Petty was the guy playing on you during a game...we can't have that!!!

    Some of that first half was horrible but we still have a sniff but we still could get flogged.

    The first goal in the 3rd will be critical to building some belief we desperately need..

    We've had a couple of very stiff "not 15" calls against us that seemed like BS, or at least they didn't call the same for Cats. They don't make it easy for us do they.

    The most disappointing part is that despite the improved effort, it's really obvious that we're completely outclassed.

    The structure, cohesiveness and decision making is just not where it needs to be. We are scoring goals through opposition errors and quick flashes of individual desperation.

    It's the same trends from 2022 after three years of devolution

    👏Langdon run

    👏clearances even

    👏Trac two goals

    👏Langford goal

    🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮umps !!!


    Have been saying for the last two years that we needed to draft a defender. Now May is clearly in decline and Petty looks [censored], while Adams is doing nothing at Casey.

     

    How do you lose the ability to tackle?

    • 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.
