    Spot on about the contested possession aspect Ron.

    And spot on re Jack Watts too. He's an asset.

    New favourites Lumumba, Gartlett and vandenBerg.

    And Newton. And Brayshaw. And Frost.

    And the future king of the club - Jesse.

    I am in a good mood.

    We kicked goals too

    Multiple options

    Bernie V to come back

    Cross good vanders newton hogan

    Lumumba !!!

    Vandenberg, JKH, Brayshaw and Watts - all have very high ceilings.

    Newton, Garlett, Lumumba - all exceptional, played well above their 2014 form.

    Tom McDonald was absolutely brilliant, Garland - likewise.
    Toumpas, very bad.. Maybe not even up to VFL? It is mental, I'd give him a year off and send him to the ABA (amateur boxing). Fully paid by MFC.

    Great win. Hogan is every we could ever ask for.

    Dare to dream

    I tipped Suns and I am absolutely DEELIGHTED that I got it so wrong. Fantastic effort Dees!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yup, i'm a staunch Toumpas supporter, but next week it'll be:

    IN: Vince

    Out: Toumpas

    But now, who out for Dawes?

    The happiest I've been in 11 years!! :D

    Can't believe you were at the game. Jamar was awesome and killed Zac Smith.

    Believe it

    Jamar is strong but he was outmuscled at times

  • Quote

    Vince for Toumpas is an easy one for me. Not sure who replaces him as the sub though? Brayshaw looked right at home in the starting 18.

    We scored over 100 points without Dawes even playing. Hogan was still highly effective even as the number one key forward.

    You have to wonder about what we'll do with Dawes next week... who goes out for him, if anyone?

  • Quote

    Amazing Win, so so happy!

    Already can't wait to watch the replay.

    All the new boys stood up really well. Derm' suggesting it was Garlett's best game in years.

    Brilliant debuts from Vandenberg, Hogan and of course Brayshaw, what a gun. Newton snagged a few and a great start from Lumumba.

    Jack Viney was running all day and for the few little mistakes he might make he also stops the opposition players getting the ball constantly. Very excited by the result and feels like a very different team even to last year. First time we've scored 100 points since 2013. Go Dees

  • Quote

    Seems Jack Viney and Col Garland aren't playing for their careers after all.

    I'd like to eat humble pie and apologise unreservedly to Viney. Would be near the votes on that effort.

  • Quote

    do we even bring Dawes back in?

    Good question

    How did he go vs collingwood?

  • Quote

    Seems we're going the Hawthorn route of encouraging goal-scoring mids rather than the traditional forward line KPP's.

    Not sure I like the idea of Roos changing multiple players from a winning team, just to fit Dawes back in. Kent/JKH/Garlett/Hogan/Watts was perfect, with goals peppered from Tyson/Newton/Jones/Lamumba.

    Jamar monstered in the ruck?

    Stupidest. Comment. Ever.

    Hate to sound harsh but if anything it was the opposite. Hard to disagree re Toumpas though. I like him and hate to judge the sub too harshly, but was a very unimpressive cameo.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
