That's bull, dropped some sitters and laughed about one of them, good at presenting but needs to hold his marks and make the most of the few opportunities he gets

I thought kicking 2 goals 2 from limited opportunities was a decent result. Yeah he should have marked that one in the pocket, and he knew it, but he was certainly one our better players and has been the last few weeks.

Ins: Frawley - Gawn - Jetta

Outs: Spencer (susp) - Pederson - Nicho

FB: Terlich - Frawley - Dunn

HB: Garland - McDonald - Clisby

C: Trengove - Sylvia - Toumpas

HF: Watts - Dawes - Howe

FF: Davey - Gawn - Byrnes

R: Fitzpatrick - N.Jones - M.Jones

I: Blease - Jetta - Rodan

S: Kent

This is what I would go with personally, we don't need wholesale changes but it gets the right people in IMO. If Jamar is ready to go then perhaps Gawn will be stiff to miss out, but I think Fitzy is starting to get a bit of confidence so I'd like to keep playing him. Wouldn't say no to Jamar playing for Casey for a week to earn his spot.

I saw Jamar at the G on Saturday night with crutches and a very large supporting frame around his (left) lower foot area (bit like those butterfly devises put around thumbs needing support). With my vast medical knowledge can add nothing more as to his prospects of playing but would not be holding my breath

My take on Watts game was that although statistically it wasn't a massive game, I saw more of the things I wanted to see from him in terms of aggression etc. He has had 20+ possession games in the past that have been awful and full of cheapies.

If he plays at that level each week, Saturday's performance would become a baseline and we would see dramatic improvement.

OUT: Spencer (suspended) Pedersen Dunn

IN: Gawn Frawley Jetta

Magner before Jetta.

Magner before Jetta.

also Dunn is finished, don't play him again, make's too many mistakes. Has been at the club for years and is still crap, the same can be said for Jamar.

I am not even close to a fan of Dunns but he was far from our worst on the weekend.

As long as Jamar doesn't come in and Gawn does I'll be happy.

Right on GTG Jamar forces us to play his style of game Its been no good for too long Time to go big Fella You are done

Give the Gawnster and Spence some game time for the rest of the season

I can't believe evryone is leaving Byrnes in their sides. Every possession he had other than his goal, thanks to Flash, was a turnover. Doesn't try and spoil if the ball is a bit high for him. Can't run. Insipid chasing. Offers nothing.

If we pick him in a side, we are waving the white flag.

Gotta justify that 2 year contract

Davis on standbye for Chip, Garland or Tommy Mac.

Sellar on standbye for Gawn or Fitzy.

Jetta to come in if anyone else was a late change to give us another midfielder.

Haha. my bad. Clisby in Terlich's HBF position... Terlich can stay in the BP.

Surely Magner has to play? What was the point in elevating him and then not playing him despite getting more than 30+ touches for Casey every week.

When Neil Craig rewards Clisby (deserved the call up) for consistent performances in the VFL, I thought of Magner & Couch straight away. Seeing that Magner was elevated from the rookie list and his consistent performances over that last 2 years @ VFL, then surely he deserves a call up, no he has earnt a call up.

Looks about right 'Tall', maybe Magner for Rodan or Byrnes but he seems to be on the outer at the moment.

I too like Tall's team. Perhaps Jetta, Magner or another mid in for Byrnes.

I bet the team will come out tomorrow and we will all be dumbfounded though. The thought process of us on here rarely aligns with their thinking. But if Pedersen plays, I won't be happy.

I know that McKenzie is viewed differently by many here, but I get the feeling that if he is fit then he will play.

With that in mind, I'd probably amend TD's suggestion to include McKenzie.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
