Wow JS22....just joined and a first post with this detail....nice work! Disappointing no Gysberts....hopefully your sources are wrong with that one.

GYSBERTS?!?!

Posted

interesting...col would be the other one

Especially if he is playing sore. That could explain a lot.

I saw a few minutes of our game v North before I had to go out. Col tried to snap a left foot snap across the body & stuffed it, he looked frustrated. He also looked like he's playing with less flexibility.

really happy for Jetta & Wonna if true, but will they both fit with Bennell? are we copying Carltons forward line structure?..

Jetta will probably play a speedy midfielder role, Bennell as a half-forward flanker, and Wonna as the goalsneak he is

Good luck.

Who is going to be Jamars deputy? Miller?

its interesting as soon as he got a deputy we started losing again.

Martin, PJ & Spencer dont warrant a place in the team for 10-15mins of ruck work a game, then have to hide them on the bench cos they have no other strings.

If Jamar needs a chop out for 5mins a quarter dont see why Warnock/Miller cant do it.. Dunn/Newton certainly did enough in the early games

That doesn't disappoint me. Bruce and Bate are injured, so MacDonald and Morton get their spots. Jetta takes over from Hughes, Miller can ruck better than PJ and at least give us something up forward, and Aussie is a best 22 player that will likely get his go in the place of Sylvia who will benefit immensely from a week at Casey.

That is of course, assuming you know what you're talking about. 5.00pm tomorrow is D-day.

Seems like it. A good move. We can't get less competitive in the ruck than what PJ gave us on Saturday, and Miller forward is a much more viable option than PJ forward.

Rewards Miller for consistent form at Casey, gives him what might be his last shot, and gets PJ out of the team. I'm not expecting Miller to dominate (and I wouldn't be surprised if the move failed completely) but I like it.

Agreed....happy with in's/outs.....(Bate, Bruce & PJ...thankfully! He's been given a go surely? - OUT)Morton a monty to return, Miller deserves a last chance or two this year & chops out Jamar, Jetta & Wonna would be great to see with Bennell and Davey.....(Reckon there may be something amiss with Davey? Chance to miss perhaps? Hopefully not but could be the reason that both Wonna & Jetta are on the plane, no doubt it would take something significant for Flash to miss this game I will say!)......even Sylvia seems to be carrying something (I have to believe that his consistency was getting better from the end of 09 into his start of 2010!)......My money would be on one of Wonna or Jetta playing or both if one of Flash or Sylvia miss............ geez Gysberts is working hard for a crack though! Get the Gys in!!

What are you, some kind of travel agent or something... booked the flights for melb players to darwin???

Great work, let's see if you're right.

Oh, and how many goals does Jack kick on Saturday night??

Big changes if true. Assuming Sylvia is the other out our team could look something like this:

Backs: MacDonald, Warnock, Rivers

Half backs: Garland, Frawley, Grimes

Centres: Scully, Moloney, Trengove

Half forwards: Bennell, Miller, Davey

Forwards: Green, Watts, Wonaeamirri

Followers: Jamar, McDonald, McKenzie

Interchange: Bartram, Jetta, Jones, Morton

Sad to see Bate go out but that is an exciting team!

Oh chances are one of the 5 are flying up as an emergency. So maybe there are only four changes and Sylvia is in?

IMO, that's because all our running players are kids. We lack the running & finishing power that the top mature teams carry. so we carry an extra runner. But, at Jamars expense. I hope we don't run him into the Merri Crk mud.

I wouldn't jump all over the newbie if he/she gets it a bit wrong when we see tomorrow's team. Things can change between now and tomorrow evening and the team as it stands now may only be preliminary. But if it's a lot wrong... look out. The vultures will be circling :mad::lol: :lol:

Posted

If Bate and Hughes are outs, I'd be inclined to keep Sylvia IN, unlike others spruiking that he will be another OUT.

that was what i was leaning towards.. i would of thought all clubs would take an extra when travelling interstate.. as much as sylvia has been down, he is way too good to be dropping after a couple of shockers (1 in the wet, and 2 vs wc and north which in both there were alot of passengers) he will come good, especially if bate is out

I have a feeling if Bate goes out, & I think he should have a rest before Geelong, it'll be for 1 week only. So,who would you bring in just for 1.

The ruck needs a hand up there in the humidity, just for one? Or would they take Spencer this week to have him ready for the Cats?

We Certainly Need to add some nippy players for up there in Darwin, plenty rovers, as the ball will be on the deck mostly.

I think Hughes could be usefull in those conditions, with his reactiveness & his athletic abilities.

There is no way sylvia is out of the team. rediculous people are suggesting it. yes he's had 3 ordinary games, but he had 2 rippers before that. We need to get these guys playing games together.

The more they play together the better the group will be for the future. and sylvia is defintely a big part of our future.

Sure if he is horribly out of form then drop him, but i dont' believe that is the case atm. His tackling and chasing is still good

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
