Our tall back stocks are pretty good for once

Frawley

Sellar

Mcdonald

Gillies

Davis

Pederson

Garland

Watts

Except that four of the above-named either haven't played a game or are not regulars in the starting 22.

 

James Sellar was good down back last year and has been good there this year. In fact he's looked very much at home there whenever he has been. Tom McDonald on the other hand looks more like a natural forward. At his best last year he was instinctive and sought the ball out. He played there as a junior, and was drafted on what he showed as a forward. I don't understand why he hasn't been tried up front, unless its part of a longer term career plan, a la David Neitz.

Better to have them and not need them then need them and not have them. although i think Aaron davey would even be a better player than Gillies based on what i have seen.

 

Sellar tries hard but his hands are shocking. Definitely not a forward. As Django said, he's a pretty handy depth player.

I agree with that point (I assume you mean Davis, not Davey).


Is there a matchup for him this week? I didn't watch the Freo game, so I am not sure who they played forward. But they seem to get a lot of goals through Mayne/Ballantyne/Walters. Frawley may get Mayne, or though he works pretty hard up the gorund. Then Garland may get Ballantyne, and Nicho on Walters.

Nicho on Walters ? We are finished

Nicho on Walters ? We are finished

Rest easy Walters is out injured.

 

Looks better down back, but do freo have a matchup for him?

In my opinion is one of the worst players to ever get a game for Melbourne.

Rivals Michael Newton

Totally agree with you, one of the worst players I have seen play for the Melbourne Football Club.

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
