    The McDonalds seem to get better with age.

    Maybe we need an I Was Wrong thread?

    I've certainly been off the mark with TMac. After that GWS game last year I thought he was done...

    I'mnot watching the game, but I see that OMac has 2 goals, 7 score involvements and 3 goal assists playing as a 196cm ruckman...

    it's an incredible comeback from being ditched by first mfc then cfc

    it will be interesting to see how they combine darcy, jackson, treacy, amiss, and o mac going forward

    Interesting; Freo up by 40 odd, then gave up late goals in the last quarter to win by 18.

    Very similar to last night.

    Had a serious back injury while at Carlton, and they obviously thought he was cooked. Worked very hard in the VFL to give himself another chance, which was almost lost through last year's knee injury.

    Asking genuinely, was Ben McKay really good at Kangas? I never really watched any of their games.

    i watch the roos every week. he was horrendous.

    Must have taken OMac off for the last 15 minutes.

    Freo have a lot of journeymen playing for them. OMac, Narkle, O’Meara, Aish and Wagner are all at their third club.

    It’s interesting to me that McKay was talked about as a gun full back whilst at the Roos, then I watched him play at Essendon and I thought he must’ve had a huge drop off in form

    Interesting. I thought he was tracking really well as a young KPD. Until Robbie Tarrant left for Richmond and left him to lead the backline. McKay seemed to stagnate, if not regress from that point .

    But I've not watched them as much as you

    Anyone else think the scoring pattern at the Coll/Ess game was unusual, or everyone except C just got tired.

    The Saints always wear such Crappy “Away” Strips, even when they are playing at home

    It feels like they've worn a different guernsey in every game so far this year. The Belgian flag one is still to make an appearance though.

    Saints prove they are rubbish earlier than usual

    Lions should be flag favourites and then daylight. Their squad is so deep. they are just in cruise mode

    Just a final reflection on Ben McKay @Go the Biff and @BoBo, - he is not inside the top 150 players in the comp. Yet North got pick three as compensation for him. Get your head around that 🥇. Everyone gets a participation medal.

    Too early to call mate

    This time last season the premiers and a top 6 team were 13th and 17th!

    (and we were 4th 😬)

    Hahaha, wow, picks 1 to 4 for us then for Kozzie if that’s the standard.

    I looked up his contract and it’s averaged to $800k over 6 years. So it’s not the craziest amount. Still $100k too much for his output and that’s being generous.

    Port by 12pts

    • 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.
