No Skill, Goodbye.

Any Melbourne fan who saw Carlton lose today should call for the delisting/trading of those players at Melbourne who have no skill (can't dispose of the footy). Carlton lost because of the turnovers of players like Walker, Blackwell and dare I say it Gibbs. I lost count of the number of times they went near goal only to turn it over and see a goal come on the rebound.

That being the case I say goodbye and thanks to Ward, Godfrey, Brown and Miller.

    Not until after Rd 22 though - if you get my drift. ;)

    Blackwell is interesting - I think it was touch and go if Carlton were going to pick him as a FS... his disposal isn't good.

    Miller was a low draft pick up and I like the guy, but at the moment I just can't cop guys who can't kick. If he was traded for a player for example a Charman from lions I would be happy. I would however not delist him for nothing.

    Agree totally Redleg.....

    If we were to delist Miller then a massive mistake has been made!!

    He would still be half decent trade bait I think.... The only thing that will haunt us is the fact that after we get rid of him, I guarantee he will become a solid player at whichever club gets him!!

    • 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.
