He could be the interchange steward making sure we don't get any free kicks paid against us. It's the only way he would influence a game this year. Times up Adem. Do the lap with the skippa and then sit in the coaches box.

Apparently Yze's attitude all year, pre-season and since being dropped, has been excellent. Maybe he deserves another go but he'd want to make it count. Might not get many chances in the latter half of the year.

Na I think its the right time for him to come back... he was down on confidence + still not 100% last year after his shorter stint at Sandy... I think he'll come back a lot stronger this time.

Look if you guys are correct i would be stoked as it would be great to see a bit of Yze Magic on the grass again but i can't see it happening. 2 Years ago the Hawks were nothing compared to what they are now.

Definitely. I think this is probably his last chance. Its sad to think that only 2 years ago, he was tipped to play until he was 35 and he certainly looked as if his body would hold up too but he's really gone downhill.

Only reason i am being harsh is i want i want my team to get a ruthless edge and challenge for a flag. For too long Melbourne has been sometimes been a "Retirement Village" for old players to get a few more games. Its not a good example for the young kids coming in. Byron should not have played last year either. 2006 was his year.

How can you justify dropping a youngster (lets be honest, who else would you drop for the sake of playing Yze) in order to play a veteran who is on the verge of retirement and is struggling for form?

I rather bring in a raw Maric than an over-cooked Yze.

I say he deserves one more chance to show whether or not he can still play AFL football. Against the Hawks thats not such a bad idea because we're unlikely to do too well anyway, however considering the likely standard of our football vs theirs anyone who plays badly is going to be targeted so I get the feeling that should he play he's a good chance to become a scapegoat and not last another match.

couldn't agree more Jaded. Whats to be gained by playing Yze? he is not a part of the future, we should be playing people who are.

Give me one example over the years when we are being badly beaten, it has been Adem Yze who has taken a game by the scruff and got us back into it. Yze played great footy when the team was flying. But was always the First senior player to go missing when the prospect wasnt Good.

Thats why he is not a good example

Yze must come back this week.

We've flushed 300K down the toilet with him this year, so he owes us some game time.

Play him deep in the foward line besides Robbo to create a two pronged attack. Remember Yze is a fantastic mark for his size and has great goal sense.

I'm all for playing the kids, but I also want Yze (one of my fave players overt the years) to still get a few games. Plus he's copped his demotion on the chin, so deserves another chance. People are being to harsh on him IMO.

The game has passed him by. He has been a great player for MFC but when did he last grab a game and play 4 quarters??

they should give him a game, if he's playing well enough he should be in

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
