Ironically its always funny watching Melbourne supporters on here giving shade to the likes of Brisbane and Collingwood whilst our very own club rots away down the bottom.

I enjoy watching Collingwood play and would dream to have the game style they have. It's fun, exciting and brings their supporters through the gates.

I legitimately have more excitement in watching Casey play this weekend over our snooze fest AFL club.

exactly we should win against gws, best casey team since the gf maybe even better

    With the Pies it is pretty simple.

    About 8 - 10 very skilled ball handlers.

    The best player in the game. A brother also an excellent player.

    More AFL experience than any other side.

    Total buy in and selflessness by the players.

    Pace to burn.

    Reasonable goal kicking skill.

    Well coached.

    Ability to recruit players from other clubs.

    To a lesser extent, huge support which probably leads to favorable umpiring on nearly every occasion. Can you see the 78m penalty being given against the Pies or the soft free to McStay for a goal, or the ridiculous DeGoey free where he dropped an opponent not in play, all paid at crucial times. A bunch of mates in the MRO and Tribunal also helps.

    The Pies aren’t that fast they just move the ball quickly. Constant movement forward then if they cough it up they get back and force the opponent down the line. They work incredibly hard.

    It’s funny isn’t it - even if we leave the Brayshaw stuff out of the conversation I’ve only ever viewed him as a sniper and yet he’s lauded as tough

    He's just an absolute P.O.S. thug

    Needs to be run through. ( twice)

    Usually the Good Friday game involving North is a yawn fest but this one could be a good watch.

    Carlton's season definitely on the line. Win today and they may still scrape into the final 8. Lose and Voss, like Goodwin is gone

    Not sure if that’s more of a dig at North or Melbourne.

    We‘re the only team North can beat.

    I know most hate the ground but the closed roof is making for great television viewing.

    Time they put some fixed cameras in the roofing gantry to increase the number of camera angles.

    Watching Kayo their goal replays seem to be repetitive in coverage. Something they could work on but it does look good in 4K

    The roof’s fantastic for TV.

    However it should be open for warm early season nights and overcast winter days. Absolutely unbearable and non temperature controlled when it’s mid 20’s plus.

    Have North ever played in one of these Good Friday games and not been belted?

    Yeah listening to it on the radio & the boundary rider was saying how hot it is & stuffy. It's a big crowd to so all those bodies in there won't help

    West coast any chance tonight or am I just hoping?

    You want West Coast to win because you hate Essendon?

    Or you want West Coast to win because we’ll be the only team to be winless and hence the microscope will be fair and square on the club?

    A small chance IMO.. Aside from round 1, West Coast will play their better games at Optus.

    Man North plays dumb sometimes. Like why do they just keep jumping on the ball. They've been pinged like 5 times.

    Norths victory over us really doesn’t bode for us winning a game any time soon. We all thought Norf had turned the corner and were going to not be easy beats was perhaps a distraction from how far we have really fallen.

    • 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.
