Changes v Port

Featured Replies

Terlich looks mentally fatigued.

Hated seeing him forward against the Dogs - he looked terrible!

I still think he does some good things off HBF.

JKH in for whoever.

 

I think Gawn will get another crack and get Jamar to play more fwd. Need to expose Ports lack of tall defenders at this stage.

I reckon we need to give Jay and michie another look

Don't want to pour cold water (I really like JKH), but when I dropped in on training for few minutes today, he looked proppy, and seemed to have some problem with his right lower leg. He was joining in some of the drillls at full pace, but would then hobble for a bit. Unfortunately I think this means he would be doubtful for this week at least.

IMO Gawny stays out despite the 87 hit outs, Ports strength are they are very mobile and whilst their defence has been very shaky without Carlisle and Trengove I think with Dawes, Frawley and Pedersen as our tall/marking forwards we can cause them problems. A few good weeks of Blease showing form and finally a FD making them earn their spots. Michie may be considered as we are missing Cross and need to add to our midfield rotations because some of our boys need the break.

Garland Dunn Jetta

Howe Tmac Grimes

Blease Tyson Vince

Watts Frawley Kent

Bail Dawes Pedersen

Jamar NJones Viney

Tapscott, Riley, Michie & MJones Tappy more than likely the sub, Pedersen to pinch hit in the ruck when Jamar needs a rest in the forward line.

Outs: Mckenzie & Terlich

the sub must be an impact player along the lines of Blease, Kent, Bail, Salem or KennedyH. Jurrah would beat the lot!

You're welcome!

 

Is there open training tomorrow or Friday. Now that I am a man of leisure I thought I might take in a training session. Never been to one in all my years.

Upcoming open training sessions:

Wednesday 16 July - Gosch's Paddock, 9.00am

Friday 18 July - Gosch's Paddock, 10.00am

All other training sessions are closed sessions.

Okay, so it seems the match committee have made a mug out of me (join the club ... :blink: )

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
