NON-MFC: Round 5

I'm torn about tonight's match.

Sure, it would be nice to see the Blues blow a big lead again.

But I'm also keen to see them get thumped from the first bounce, and suffer a humiliating 30-goal loss that sees Voss sacked and many on their list give the game away for good, prompting the club to go into receivership and be banished from the league.

What scenario would you prefer?

    Adelaide really needs this win if they're to challenge for top four.

    They should win easily (40-50 points)

    First quarter should be a good watch

    Would be nice for 186 to be eclipsed by the magical 200 but Blues aren't that bad

    Just 30 goals? Bit low.

    Either sound like a win win, both look poor on Voss and the team, so I’ll be chuffed with either.

    Chuck in a few sore players as well for whoever they play next week.

    Terrible set of games this round aside from Sat night

    Could be 5+ blow outs

    Who's gathering around? Not many

    I will be heading to 3 games this weekend with some being closer than you might think.

    I expect Carlton, GC and St Kilda to be competitive.

    It’s a dud concept that everyone hates except South Australians, and industry folks who get a free weekend away. It kills me every year hearing the media tell us how great it is.

    It’s also the reason we now have such a limp start to the season with the AFL catering to annoyed Northern states that they didn’t get Gather Round - so instead we have Opening Round and weird byes forced onto us.

    Just remembered there's footy on tonight and I can watch Carlton get royally humped from the comfort of my lounge room. Not that I have any affection for the Crows of course. As for Nibbler I'm pretty ambivalent. As long as he doesn't play a 100 games for them that's all that really matters.

    I could also argue why doe ls the GF always at G, why does Collingwood always play Essendon on Anzac Day, Round zero but I could go on and on.

    All i can say it that for every visitor I come across around 8/10 support it and seem to come back.

    It's an unwritten law that the AFL media machine has to churn out pro Gather Round propaganda around the clock, much in the way they do with the two northern expansion clubs. Dissent is not allowed. Just look at their reaction to Chris Scott calling wildcard round out for what it really is.

    Funny how the Crows club song has the same tune as The Sash my Father Wore. They should get a flute band to play it at home games 😆

    • 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.
