The change in our gameplay was stark in the last, much less playing on. Last qtrs def still a worry

But gees Iā€™m proud of the boys, played their hearts out

Playing on and moving the ball quickly is quite taxing. A few might have spent their petrol tickets. The more you play that style you run out the games better.

    An excellent defensive effort to hold it together after Disco went down. Huge game from TMac. I have been critical of Howes in the past but he played his role well today.

    Langford looks a star of the future.

    I was stuck near a bunch of Freo [censored]

    I wished them a long trip home.

    Unlucky as a lot of empty seats at the game.

    Was hoping we scored 80, ended up >100 which is where we need to be. +46 points on our average this year.

    Kept them <100 which is the other half of what I wanted, especially good result without May & Lever and with Petty up forward.

    Maybe weā€™re not dead yet.

    No player is closer to Goodwin than Koz. He played for his coach today.

    Tmac is a modern great of the MFC. Nobody talks about it, but he gives 100% at every contest, he has been loyal, and I hope he gets to 250 games.

    We were loud today. I was proud. But we need more.

    Gotta say that was a great gritty win.

    Really happy for the club and especially the players to see reward for effort.

    Our disposal still needs work at times. When we execute those kicks through the corridor it's awesome but the likes of Salem and Viney can do it better.

    They've done it before, they just need to take a short breath rather than rushing the kick.

    We also still need to lower our eyes more coming in But a good step forward.

    Just good to see us grind it out.

    Great tackling pressure. Great win

    We will be ok , with that group of youngsters.

    Langford was really solid and Bowey was BOG , Kozzie, Kolt, Lindsay, Windsor all great.

    Old stagers Viney and TMac played terrific footy.

    Petty at Full forward with 4 was promising and will hopefully give him some confidence in the coming weeks.

    Best feeling ever.

    Donā€™t think Iā€™ve seen more of a pro at the Dees than T Mac. Exceptional game and Petty just reminded a few that he can play the game.

    I see him walking his pram down Glenferrie Road with his newborn and he looks knackered. Kudos to him for turning up every week!!

    You can drop the modern bit. He is an all-time great.

    Highlight of the day was Langfordā€™s clincher in the last.

    When I need someone to step up in the big moment in the future, I know who to call.

    Come on fox footy - is it to much to ask - to see the debutants being sprayed with Gatorade?

    Loved Bowey and Koz today - epic!

    All anyone wants of us is effort from our team, that's all we can ask every week.

      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.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.Ā
