Watts to play for Casey, so as to help with there finals campaign. He would get a lot more out of playing in a finals series down with Casey Scorps, I'd like to see Jurrah eventually back there as well.

Spencer, Buckley, McKenzie, Newton, Martin, Dunn, Bartram, to Casey for the finals.

Two changes:

IN: Spencer (need to get more game-time into him), Whelan (must play last two games to get to 150!)

OUT: Martin (obviously carrying some injury over the last few weeks), Jetta (i like him, but he played an absolute stinker against Freo)

IN: Watts

According to the HUN, they've put the cue in the rack for Watts. He will now focus on VCE exams. He will train part-time from October 12th till end of exams.

 

I would understand if it was 100 or 200 games but what is so important about getting Wheels to 150? To my knowledge it does not affect father/son, life membership, name on locker or anything else of note. Send off game important but I actually dont think 150 is that important. I actually struggle with it being recognised for any player.

If fit Whelan. Absolutely must get him to 150 if we can. Wheatley to ensure he gets a send off.

Next priority may be Buckley if fit if he needs to stake a claim to stay on the list.

Out: anyone other than Davey as he is only one to play every game in 2009.

IN: Whelan

OUT: Anyone

I agree. I've completely lost all interest in the changes now. My only criteria is that Whelan can get to 150.

Any number that is divisible by 50 is a significant milestone IMO.

ins

Whelan, Wheatley, Newton ( farewell games )

outs..

what ever works ;)

OUT: Jetta (i like him, but he played an absolute stinker against Freo)

That tackle against Sandilands gets him a game for the rest of the year, IMO.


Id like to see more of McKenzie. He looked pretty good in his one game.

Bartram and Jetta to go out.

That tackle against Sandilands gets him a game for the rest of the year, IMO.

That was about the only thing he did all game. I like him, and I think he's going to be a good player for us, but I'd prefer Whelan to get his 150, and Jetta is the most likely candidate to be dropped.

That tackle does go to show that Jetta's workrate is phenomenal. He always chases, always puts himself in the contest, always runs himself to exhaustion. Good qualities.

very happy with this team.

Good ins and outs.

Melbourne Team

Backs: Whelan, Frawley, Morton

Half backs: Cheney, Rivers, McNamara

Centreline: Sylvia, Moloney, Davey

Half forwards: Jones, Robertson, Jurrah

Forwards: Johnson, Martin, McLean

Followers: Spencer, Jetta, Bate

I/C From: Petterd, McDonald, McKenzie, Valenti

Emg: Bartram, Bennell, Jamar

BY the way, surely Bartram getting dropped again signifies the end of his career?

WHELAN!

My love, we will enjoy these last few hours until it be light

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
