In Newton Bate Valenti Dunn

Out Mclean Pettard Morton Miller

Could easily add another 6 but for now this will do and feel watts needs to be put away till next year had his taste for now

I'm almost scared to play the youngens just because we have no game plan for them to follow. I know we don't really have any other option but it almost seems like we're going to 'ruin' them by bringing them into such a shamble that is the 'MFC style of play'.

Having said that, Robbo and Whelan should not play until their farewell game in Round 22 and if Bailey has any guts, he'll make this change.

Will they give both Watts and Jurrah another run?

Dunn deserves another chance, hasn't played ones in at least a month and it's better than just bringing someone like Bartram back in again...

Who ever you drop or select from Casey, we are only rearranging the chairs on the titanic.

Give it a rest, bit dramatic.

For the ship to sink this year we would need to be heading somewhere first, and this year is only about getting games into kids and we have dont that.

There is hope, god help you if you cannot see it.

Agree. There wasn't much on offer at Casey. Bartram, Dunn perhaps. I think Watts could go back. What is most disappointing is that Brisbane killed us and yet they thought they played poorly.

Explain?

Has not played a decent game for 10 weeks tonight he did play slightly better but he does not have a tackle or any defense in his body and just because he made one tackle tonight doesnt cut it and his kicking is sub par right now to timid in his decission making yet was not the worst tonight and will in the future be a good player not a super star everyone claims he will be, the morton brothers are about as similar as the houlihans wont produce the goods you all think yet there were some high paid players out there that seriously need to either put up or f off simple basicaly a discrace to see some guys at this club prentending to footballers and have the gall to be paid highly for it and only by default

The year is about improving. Are we better than last year ? and at the moment no ! Im just calling it as i see it.

Im happy with Davey, Sylvia and the youngsters ie Grimes and Frawley, but our seasoned campainers arn't producing their best : Brock, Jones, Moloney, Miller, Green etc

There are only three players I care to watch this year: Grimes, Watts and Jurrah.

The club can do as they please with the rest, just as long as these three are playing.

Morton will get nothing from playing with Casey. He needs, much like Watts, experience and muscle.

Hopefully Jamar is fit and ready to play, because PJ vs. Cox/Naitanui is going to be joke of the century.

That is if Cox plays.

I will hold back and just present you with some facts.

Good games in the last 10 weeks:

Adelaide: Round 5 - 28 touches.

Geelong: Round 6 - 26 touches, 1 goal.

West Coast: Round 7 - 34 touches, 16 marks.

Western Bulldogs: Round 8 - 37 touches.

SO YES, he has a 'decent' game in the last 10 weeks.

Before people go on about 'cheap' or 'uncontested' touches, if you play football you will know that to get these so called cheap touches you need to run bloody hard and all day to make space for yourself.

Let me also remind you he has played 32 games, and is 19 years of age.

Yes the last few weeks have been poor, but we have improved on last year. Mclean is injured, Jones I agree is not playing well atm, Moloney has had a better season, Miller agree is playing shocking and green has been really good this year.

Typical quoting stats look at the game and the turnovers more so come to a game in Melbourne and watch him live tv quoting doesnt rate with me, i go every week and have so for more years than i dare say you have been barracking for this club

he is left alone all the time by opposing clubs guess why einstein he turns over or his desission making is poor hence why i rate him like his brothers with the houlihans not much at all rose coloured glasses mate

Our whole midfield has definitely gone off the boil in recent weeks. I suspect Moloey may be feeling the pinch after not playing much footy over the last couple of years, and we all know Brock is struggling, as well as Jones. We need to bring some fresh players into the midfield this week to get a bit of spark back.

Posted
Can anyone tell me why Melbourne can't man-up? Are the players not fit? Are they playing a zone? Does nobody seem to care?

Clint i hate quoting espec after watching a game from tv but i feel some of these players just seem down right lazy people hate Bruce but he was up both ends all night as for some other players better not say might hurt some feelings if i do say what i really think but bails gunna need to chop some heads come season end and some home truths need to told to some very high profile players and they need to learn and fast

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
