I begged the MCG to trade Bruce during the trade period for a 1st round pick.

In all likelihood we would have landed Cyril Rioli, who myself and others drooled over last November. The kid just tore it up over in Perth tonight, and the Hawks beat Freo.

We made a great move with Johnstone, but another tough call needed to be made in trade week.

We failed.

    Ho hum...

    Gee, that Cyril Rioli is a good player.

    Our players aren't Cyril Rioli.

    Obviously...

    Our players aren't good.

    Focus on the issues at hand.

    Really, we should have traded Bruce for pick four a couple of years ago and gotten Lance Franklin.

    In fact, hell, Neitz has been a bit slow these last few years, we probably could'be got the Judd draft pick for him.

    What a load of crap. You don't like Bruce - big deal. What would Cyril Rioli have done for us today other than go missing like three quarters of the rest of our side.

    The Hawks were good tonight, and it kills me to see the player we almost had in Sewell continue to carve up opposition sides - but we don't and there's no point bitching about it.

    Exactly Tess. I think Bailey will be a little more hard nosed about these things.

    Fergs is playing for West Adelaide.... Alongside their new captain Nathan Brown.....

    Daniel Ward is playing for North Adelaide.....

    Trading Bruce would not have produced a first round pick. Thats why Johno was selected as the player to trade out of the likes of Bruce, Green, Yze and Johno.

    end of story.

    Why is Bruce bagged so often. His first half was good yesterday and once again played well on Johnson. I am happy if he wins his position most of the time.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
