You’re not a Melbourne supporter. A true Melbourne supporter would never, ever celebrate a loss, no matter the reason.

Lawyers, Guns and Money would disagree Ghosty. I KNOW what ur saying, but let me ask you this? Do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one, or do the needs of the one outweigh the needs of the many? If greater good occurs because of something which is not, is that not a good outcome, depending of course on the long term success of the negative action! Over to you Ghosty!

    I want Goodwin gone as much as anyone but this is Essendon.
    One of the absolute must win games of the season.
    The knives can wait .... For a couple weeks.

    CELEBRATE is too strong a word but it might be one week closer to a new direction that these players and supporters desperately need.

    Continue to love and support the best sporting club in the world, while simultaneously multi-tasking the following:

    1. driving my family to distraction via yelling, moaning and head rubbing

    2. being physically restrained from throwing assorted remote controls at the large TV screen.

    3. typing furiously on Demonland to express my rage, disappointment , self-inflated opinions, and frustration.

    Sums up my 2025 experience really.

    I hear ya DOF. The inaugural Gather Round, I went by car, only stopped once, got to Adelaide, parked the car, arrived just before the first bounce, sat in the heavy, nonstop rain watching us lose to 🤮Essendon🤮, got back in the car and came straight back to Melbourne. But…

    I wasn’t glum because I was with DA buddies and we don’t do glum. 😉

    All good PF, BBP has expressed my sentiment perfectly. Also pleasing is that he didn’t put “of” after “strong” and yes, it does matter. 😁

    • 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.
