Defence stood tall and pressure forwards played a massive role. That being said, nobody had more influence on the result than Gawn.

Just a champion

But needs to learn his to kick with a permanent hook

Daylight

5 Rivers for 3 3/4 qtr for his run and carry

4 Sparrow lifted again with his tackling and determination

3 Langdon plays with heart and runs all heart

2 Viney tackling machine (just needs to kick a goal when he has a chance … missed 3 chances )

1 Chandler plays with heart and smart footy

Don’t get sucked into stats - Bowey Salem lazy disposals and little chip kicks time to get real and use the footy with purpose

And strugglers were

The glory that is Demonland. Two posts in a row. One gives Spargo a minus 1 while the other a vote of +1.

My votes:

  1. Gawn 5. Bowey 4. Salem 3. Petracca 2. Sparrow 1. Rivers

Viney's tackling was superb, but he seems to have forgotten the gameplan once he has the ball. Those long dump kicks don't belong any more. (What's worse, is that perhaps he was trying precision passing and wasn't capable of doing it.)

I reckon Harvey deserved a vote for that tackle on Toby.

  1. Gawn. I will be able to tell my grandkids I saw this legend play live.

  1. Bowey. Maybe 1/3 of his disposals were those easy ones across half back, but apart from those, this bloke is now our chief distributer. He looks for the 45 degree angled kick, he changes lines and angles, and on the run is a reliable kick finding targets (except for his first kick this game which was a shocking howler).

  1. Petracca. He's not back to his peak, but he is back.

  1. Langdon. The everywhere man. Gets to the next contest, then the next...

  1. Salem. Reads the play so well and distributes well. However, I feel his disposal doesn't often hurt the opposition.

  1. Sparrow. Good to get one of our forwards into the votes. His grunt work and foot skills were great tonight.

Couldn't get Oliver, Chandler and Rivers in.

@La Dee-vina Comedia I am puzzled why anyone would give Charlie Spargo a vote. Amazed. I would not even have Spargo in my top 18 contributors last night to be honest. Sharp contributed as much and perhaps even more in his 1/4 versus Spargo’s full 100 minutes.

Spargo had 3 clear missed tackles where he was pushed aside. Not good enough. Metres gained 96!! 7 possessions. 2 clangers. No pace. No crumbing. No scoreboard impact. He is somehow getting a game!! Chandler is our best small forward by a mile.

We need to add another crumbing pacy goalkicking small forward in this years recruiting.


6 - Max

5 - Bowey

4 - Salem

3 - Rivers

2 - Tracc

1 - Sparrow

Apologies to JV (15 tackles), Clayton, Ed, TMac, May and the musketeers.

You should look at the interplay where there is vision of spargo and Goodwin

  2. Bowey

Rivers, TMac and Lingers all unlucky.

Thought Sparrow showed much improvement.

Still no dominant forward

On the 10th anniversary of the Dismissal, Gough was asked his opinion of Malcolm Fraser. His response, "Malcolm Fraser, much improved".

Where would we find that?

I think it was part of the final quarter , when Max had come off. He and max were chatting and either before or after Spargo and Goody hugged each other As if to say that went well or worked out. Willing to be over ruled just what I remember not positive when. but after half time

Gawn

Bowser

Viney

Rivers

Sparrow

Tmac

  • 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.
