Salem injured??

Concussion.
 

You can't drop Watts. Who's going to do all the pointing on the ground?

Moloney will be our guest runner.

Not only the most elite finger pointer in the game today,but the most elite finger pointer in VFL/AFL history.

Watts needs to get some touch and should go.

JKH also was not up to it today.

Mc Kenzie was poor.

But they were not alone today.

OUT- watts, mckenzie, jkh, pederson

IN- dawes, jetta, toumpas, riley

OUT- watts, mckenzie, jkh, [Pedersen]

IN- dawes, jetta, toumpas, riley

I'd keep Pedersen in. I like the addition of Riley. With Kent out he would add some grunt and aggression.


Salem might miss, and Dawes will need to pass a fitness test on that calf. Riley and Jetta in for me. McKenzie out with one of the other handful of players who were not up to it today.

Out: McKenzie, Watts

In: Dawes, Jetta

What he said.

Watts has had a few bad games running now. I say keep Pedersen in for him and bring Dawes back. If Salem is injured as it appears then Jetta comes in for him (assuming he's ok). Given Roos' reluctance to make changes that may be all. McKenzie might get lucky and be given a run-with role on one of Sydney's mids to free up Vince. If not then he might go out for Toumpas, who again appears to have racked up touches at Casey.

Admittedly I spent the first half in the blazer bar watching the fight but I would like to see Watt's tackle count today before dropping him. I thought I saw him stick a couple. From reading all the training reports that is the area of his game they are really working on. If he is improving on that we have to keep him in. We know he uses it well when is and running.

Let's at least establish one thing. Anyone who proposes that we drop Pederson after his gallant performance today, needs to acknowledge they either didn't watch the game or know absolutely nothing the game.

why Newton? He was far from our worst today.

A midfielder who gets 12 touches and places limited defensive pressure. Looks good when he gets it but doesn't find the pill enough.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
