Changes v West Coast

Featured Replies

In a perfect world Gawn and Bail would get another week at Casey to settle in and Tappy would need to prove himself 2 weeks in a row, but we barrack for Melbourne so it's a far from perfect world!

Yes Gawn would get an extra week but jamar is so bad, we don't have that luxury.
 

Conservative approach long gone .... This as conservative as I can be.

Was at casey today .... See my post in the Casey v Frankston thread

Sellar, Gillies, Nicholson, Watts, Toumpas (like the kid but think four or five games in VFL would do him good.)

Pederson, Strauss, Bail, Evans, Jetta

Thin ice for many others - I'd love to include manger ! But who are we going to put on long term injury ! :)

 

In taggert gawn magnet barry

Well ...that's my laugh for the day. Unfortunately Taggert played in the 2's at Casey and didn't make the best in that match, Magna is back on the rookie list and not available, Barry doesn't like the contest at this stage and Big Max, well he would be a chance but I hope they don't pick him just yet. If Big Max is picked this week then the footy department should be accused of not looking after their players.

He might have to take it into his own hands at training this week.

Get rid of Jamar and Sylvia. Replace anyone who's marking time with someone who actually gives a [censored] about the colours and the club.


More importantly, who would have thought that West Coast would start the season 0-3? Amazing!

FB: Jetta Frawley Garland

HB: Grimes McDonald Terlich

C: Bail Viney M. Jones

HF: Tapscott Sylvia Davey

FF: Kent Howe Byrnes

Foll: Clark N. Jones Trengove

Int: Sellar Dunn Blease Evans

Not sure the exact ins and outs but there is a lot. I'm not keen on keeping Sylvia in the team but the bottom of the barrel was being scraped.

Watts and Sylvia to Casey. Kent and Tappy into the side.

Hard competitive players required.

Your theory falls down with the mention of Tapscott

Tappy is utter shite! Has not developed at all! Never again

23 possies and 6 goals today... Deserves to play AFL next week.

A very shallow comment Bobby. If you had read the site carefully today ( you can read I presume) you would have noticed that I had put aside and got over last night's anger. If you are going to make aggressive comments make sure you have the full facts. Otherwise you risk looking like a DH - as you just did.

What exactly was aggressive about my question? And what was aggressive about my FACTUAL statement? Who is really being aggressive now? Do you change your mind often?

Would have thought saying someone can't read and looks like a dhead was more aggressive than CORRECTLY stating you had said you gave up on MFC.

Thanks Stuie. I did say YESTERDAY in my post didn't I?

Tappy kicks goals against Frankston,Woopee,he won't get a sniff against the Eagles,like Port last week.

We need to see 3-4 weeks of consistant performances instead up and down each week.


IN- Jetta, Tapscott, Dunn, Strauss, Kent

OUT- Gillies, Sylvia, Nicholson, Jamar, Byrnes

Sellar to ruck all day with Clark to help

Gillies and Byrnes to go back to the cattery

West Coast are not exactly setting the world on fire. If we weren't the worst team I'd ever seen, I might actually think we had a chance next week.

So you'd leave at the BOG for Casey when MFC gets beaten by 150 points?

Hmmmm....

Tappy needs to play but in the same role as today. Looks all at sea coming out of the back.

Please Stuie, stop it!


Think it's unfair to keep Toumpas in the team any longer. His confidence will be absolutely shot with any more games like last night's and we'd only be hurting his future development.

edit: grammar

What position did Tappy play today?

Also Toumpas needs a couple of weeks at Casey to get some more experience

Edited by illest

I'm not entirely sure on that one. He did a couple of things where I thought that he's got great vision/awareness. sub?

My understanding is that he played predominantly up forward.

Thinks its unfair to keep Toumpas in the team any longer. His confidence will be absolutely shot with any more games like last night's and we'd only be hurting his future development.

Agreed. We ruined Cale Morton by giving him games he didn't deserve, and I don't want the same thing to happen to Jimmy Toumpas.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

    Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
