Williams and Cook two prong attack. Why not? Could we really do worse?

Until very recently, Williams has looked completely lost at VFL level. He's just starting to find his feet there and is miles off a senior gig.

Fair enough, I just want a forward target though, looks like we really are scraping the bottom of the barrel

OUT- Grimes, Trengove, Frawley

Let's let those 3 know that a better work rate and decision making is required to be at AFL standard and you cannot just take your position for granted and not show the likes of leadership and heart that Jones displays. I'd drop about 10 other players too and see what mud at the bottom we have left to put on the MCG. Because I doubt they'll do worse

You'd get rid of those three and keep that lazy bastard Sylvia ?

Unlike others I think this week's team selections will be fascinating. We've a month of the season to go, there will be major changes at season's end, we've got players such as Morton and Gysberts coming off good games and we're up against the Gold Coast at home. Chatting to my Brother today and he's convinced that if Morton and Gysberts are not selected for this game then you won't see them at the club next year. I think he's right. If you're not going to play these two players now they're definitely not in your future plans.

Totally agree and you can add Cook to that list.

i really dont care anymore. id rather finish lower and improve our picks. play the kids too

That sounds ominously like tanking to me.

We want no part of it.

Pick the players to give us the best chance of winning.

Nothing else is acceptable.

I was wondering about Williams, He has been showing up in the best players in the VFL, Is a forward and the Player report on him are positive. But with your comment, might need more time. But it is Gold Coast, wouldnt hurt to give him a crack if he is fully fit.

Out Dunn Jetta Strauss McKenzie Sellar Spencer

In Watts Tynan Gysberts Morton Petterd Fitzpatrick

All good but not show about Fitzpatrick. Stick with Spencer and agree with the rest.

As an outside chance would like to see leigh Williams get a game.

I like this very much! This guy has big potential for very little coin.

No way !! Go for Williams and Cook and to hell with it!! They're our future with Jurrah and Clark next year. Common Neeld restore my faith..What's to lose?

Was talking to one of the assistant coaches at Port Melbourne who really rates Williams. He reckons that clubs try and close his run down and don't worry too much about Cook. Also reckons with another (and this time full) preseason behind him will be very good at AFL level.

Thank you Angry Dee,

Williams as a mature Rookie has massive raps from Norwood and South Australia. Had an absolute horror year with Back Injury and severe illness. If he's right to go why not pick him V Gold Coast. I know very little about Cook but everyone keeps talking about him.

Yes agreed Robbie F=the worst changes I've ever seen.

Apart from Williams. Why not try him?

    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 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
