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.

  • 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.

    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.
