POSTGAME: Rd 07 vs 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.

    Shocking last 10 minutes, the whole review should be about that.

    Mentally went to sleep, unacceptable.

    When Gawn retires we are proper****ed.

    Arrogant coaching by Goodwin for taking Gawn off.

    Awful finish and now only few positives to come out after what was heading towards a really strong win.

    Meh.

    Our forward line remains an issue but our midfield looked much better in that second half.

    Gawn and Bowey were awesome tonight.

    Not a great first half, in great part because we were getting very little from Trac, Clarry and Kozzie. No surprise that things turned with a big second half from each of them. Maxy was huge.

    Disappointing way to end the game, some useful % wasted.

    Anyway, happy for the win, we continue to build some momentum. Over to the west to make amends for a bad loss last year!!!

    Will take the win of course but jesus that last quarter was frustrating. We really need to learn how to run out games properly if we want to have a decent number of wins.

    As far as individual highlights go, Gawn reminded everyone of how much of a champion he is and Bowey has officially won me over.

    Got the job done. Max was immense in the 3rd. Great signs from so many when the game was there to be won. Couldn't give a toss about the last 10 mins. Rather preserve max & may - marathon not sprint & all that.

    Good to get the win but our last quarter was PATHETIC.

    We need to fix this otherwise the better sides will roll us.

    Fritta is still a selfish player and should be better.

    Yep. Gawn is the GOAT for mine. The amount of wins he generates all over the ground has saved us for years. He papers over A LOT of cracks.

    We worked bloody hard to win the game

    Who cares if we took the foot off the pedal and rested our 33yo workhorse star

    We still won the game

    6 goal swing there in the last QTR. We gifted them at least 3 goals and we missed at least 3.

    Yep, that last one Spargo all alone at goal square. Selfishness all around.

    Habits matter, % matters and we let a bad habit creep in and we lost valuable %.

    Happy we won of course, but as the players and coaches always say every moment matters.

    Top 5 worst games of AFL footy I’ve ever seen. From a Dees perspective, we’re very very ordinary of course, but without the best ruckman the game’s ever seen, I think we might be the worst team in the league. At the moment. Things can improve no doubt. And they will. Hopefully. 71,000 at the G, and they all should feel robbed.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
