    Jackovich was never a Half Forward, always closer to goal-a true Freak he was. Loved him

    Danny HUghes at Full Back-wish we had him now. Tough and would kick out to almost the center quite often.

    Where's tingay and febeys.

    I would have whelan in the back and shift neitz back CHB and move Jako FF. I would have Davey in there.

    Not sure if AJohnson would fit the criteria but i'll have him in and Travis might sneak in. Wight too.

    I like Phil Read's hustle.

    Sean Wight FB, Graeme Yeats or Brett Lovett in a pocket, Rod Grinter or Matty Whelan in the other. Yeah, Neitz back to CHB, flanked by Stephen Febey and Yze (maybe swap Yze with Cam Bruce on the wing). Jako to FF. One of Green, Davey or Andy Lovell to the flank. Maybe TJ to the bench for one of the Glenn Lovett's. I'd try and find room for Tingay as well (at the expense of Bennett maybe?)

    Was Alan Johnson still playing in the 90's? If So he must be in the side in the Back line.

    Sean Charles was a Great Forward before he hurt his wrist

    The Great Sean Wight-put him anywhere, always gave 110%

    The Duke Earl Spalding-Forward Flank

    R J. Stynes T. Viney Greg Healy

    E S. Newport G. Lovett J. McDonald

    I tried to stick to positions played as much as possible and base it on blokes I enjoyed watching play in those positions, rather than games played, B&Fs, etc.

    Danny Hughes, AJ, Earl Spalding & Brian Wilson all left around 1990 so I excluded them.

    If this team is to play Collingwood Brian Wilson must be selected-always saved his cheeky best for the Filth!!

    Mate, I feel like a kindred brother. You are spot on. You even got Andrew Obst in there as well. VERY underrated! My apologies would be Greg Healy, Steven Stretch, Jeff White, Rod Grinter as well.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
