We will certainly need fitzy next week against the Blitz show at Geelong, lucky Stanley is out, hopefully Mitch not back.

I like the team this week but it is also very young and inexperienced. Brayshaw, Stretch, Toumpas, ANB, Michie all very young in their careers.

The Hulk and Viney as well. The hulk is very green

    I'm worried about the Dunn on Bruce matchup.

    I'd hate for the game to be decided purely on Bruce kicking 6+ because we've got nobody to play on him.

    Dunn should be playing on the oppo's 3rd or 4th fwd not No 1 or 2.

    This is where the loss of Frawley will occasionally rear its head (although still rather Brayshaw than Frawley)

    Riewoldt kicked 9 against us at the MCG one year, and we beat them by 50+ if I remember it right. A balanced team goes ok, even if there is a winner on the other side.

    Disagree.

    He is very versatile, being so tall and quick. Yes he is no champion but he can still improve. He can play ruck, forward or back and can snag a goal. If played forward, he is actually not an easy match up for opposing teams.

    We have several others who will go before him.

    Absolutely agree Mr Red

    surprised no one cares about this big out...

    If we win it's not going to be because Roberton was a late out

    Schneider is a bigger loss for the saints.

    They took a lot of class out of their team. Expecting a lot of turnovers from them.

    Nothing to do with a jinx. 20 in a row says it all

    As long as a Gawn stands up I think we will win. If he goes down we are in deep Doo Doo.

    Agreed. Gawn dominates and we win.

    Good work xarronn - some interesting stuff. I particularly liked reading some of the forum comments. One poster refers to Robbo as "the obese [censored] head".

    Not silly those aints supporters.

    • 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.

    • 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.
