Not many MFC players in there, i assume it will be a different story this coming decade.

Sorry if this has already been posted.

    tough job picking that side.... couldn't even fit Carey in the side as i considered most of his best footy was played before 2000

    Very tough gig!, had to try and think who peaked before 2000 and who smashed it since then, this is my side

    Ru: D.Cox(WC) G.Ablett(Gee) M.Voss(BL)

    Int: M.Primus(PA) B.Cousins(WC) N.Riewoldt(St.K) C.Judd(Car.. should be under WC)

    Captain: M.Voss

    Coach: L. Matthews (hate him, but had to)

    Think of the players i couldn't fit in, r harvey, carey, richo, black, kirk, fev, hayes, goddard, mcleod, archer!

    2nd ruck was hard to pick, but i reckon that side would be tough to beat in a game

    Cousins

    Captain: Ricciuto (from the bench ha ha..)

    Coach: Paul Roos (rate him higher than Lethal as any mug could've coached that team to 3 flags. Roos is a genius and had greater longevity...)

    It was too inflexible with having to pick players from certain groupings. Richo probably wouldn't have got in, but I didn't think anyone else deserved the HFF spot. Would've put Ricciuto there ifI had the choice...

    Seriously hard leaving out some dead set guns. Some guys just pick themselves. Leaving out W Carey was tough, but as others have said his best work was in the 90's - would captain the team of the 90's

    Others we forget quickly that they changed the way the game is played. Because J White was so dominant they put in the second circle, changeing ruck work forever. Cousins' 3rd 4th 5th 6th (etc) efforts meant that we have to have ridiculous rotations to keep up with them.

    I Felt bad for leaving out : Chapman, Kouta, Tredrea, Richo, Swan, Lappin, and Goddard who are all at about the same level as those i picked.

    Hard task..here was mine:

    B: Fletcher Scarlett Clement

    HB: Hodge Bolton McLeod

    C: Goodes Black Buckley

    HF: Hird Riewoldt Ricciuto

    F: Harvey Lloyd B.Johnson

    Foll: Cox Ablett Cousins

    Int: Goodwin Lappin Judd Hayes

    Missed Pavlich somehow - fail, the guys had 6 AA's. I'd swap Lappin for the Pav on the bench if I could amend. I was harsh on some Lion players too it turns out - Voss, Brown and Akermanis. Just can't fit enough of them in will be my excuse. Pav is a major blunder though. (hand is up ! - sorry Pav)

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
