Bedford played 18 games for us.

Couldn’t get a game in a premiership team. No shame in that.

Just like Jordon/Harmes etc. When you are successful you lose good players on the fringes

exactly

I reckon McVee was very different to Bedford. Toby wanted more of a go. McVee was given his. Nobody wanted him and we gave him his only shot in the rookie draft. Put a year of development into him and then gave him every opportunity at senior level.

He repaid us by stringing us along, not signing the contract he said he was going to sign, and then requesting a move to the club that was 5 minutes drive from his junior club - but never looked at him once.

As others have said, he’s the new Howe.

and this!

    Freo choked missing 3 easy shots at the start of the Q

    Mentally weak

    They will still win but it should be 40pts plus

    Yeh but it goes both ways.

    Look at Toby Bedford.

    Goody gave him I think one opportunity, maybe two. Never played him again.

    He left and he starts every week for GWS.

    So it comes down to favorites too/politics.

    Goodwin’s biggest failure was recruiting too many players outside the first round draft to become spare parts rather than to be developed into future regulars. Hence the same favoured players played every week irrespective of form. Look at the difference to who we recruited after he left.

    i don't know whose spot those who moan and groan about the likes of bedford, jordon, etc leaving us think they were taking

    when the likes of melksham, bedford, and chandler were fringe players on the edge of being a forward half role player for us we were premiers and finishing top 4 3 years in a row - they weren't getting spots over fritsch, anb, and pickett, who were our primary role players up forward 2020-24

    jordon was actually in our best 23 virtually every week; first the sub rule dudded him out of more game time then the ridiculous delisted free agency rule probably cost us his retention

    players on the fringe of good sides are targeted by other clubs - as we have done this season with the recruitment of cj, as an example, and steele, to a lesser degree

    nibbs is so gutsy

    nice to hear a bit of lupe fiasco after his goals too

    Jeez he’s having a good game. Works so hard.Of all the players that have left over past couple of years he’s the biggest loss or at least the one I wish we could get back.

    Seemingly, doth butter no parsnips. You are correct oh wise Gw.

    And yes if Faicos is such an integral player , or some sort of footy deity this person claims him to be, then ipso facto, his absence would have definitely impacted the result in some way, shape or form.

    Somewhat lowbrow for you Mr Demonstone but very funny and appealing to my infantile sense of humor . I think we all knew a Nelson of sorts growing up. I think I still do.

    Freo could not have stuffed those 2 kickouts anymore. Surely they've practiced this & they should have been able to find a free player.

    But a good win & a good game to watch

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      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.
