I know that just because we were less than impressive in a 10 goal win and the Pies were impressive against the Cats that it means absolutely nothing when the two teams play each other a fortnight later. To say the Pies will smash us is a silly comment.

I agree. The Pies especially haven't shown a lot of consistency this year. Sure, they might beat us, but I wouldn't confidently punt on that. In fact, If I were to punt on this game I would back us in (against Collingwood). If you were to factor in the NAB cup we would be the more consistent side. How anyone could confidently tip Collingwood is beyond me.

    You don't know much about footy if you think the matchup will be the same. Collingwood are a completely different side than 1 mth ago. We would've got beaten by 15 other sides last weekend

    And we have only added Petracca, Stretch, ANB, Hunt, Garlett, Newton, O. McD and Vince, so l guess that we'll get smashed by the 'new-look Pies', especially when we also bring in Oliver and Trenners!

    I'll put 10g on it. Third man up may just be Jeremy Howe who's confidence would be sky high after 2 good games in a row, something he previously couldn't do in 99 games with the dees.

    Wherever jack returns, bank on him being 100% fit and ready to go. Roos does not bring in players who aren't ready physically or mentally. He doesn't have to with adequate depth this year.

    If he is fit enough then I hope he plays. He's a versatile player and it will be great to see him back in red and blue. He could play midfield, half forward or half back. With Viney out for a few weeks and a few youngsters struggling, hopefully he gets a gig.

    OMac last week, Tyson this week definitely wasn't 100%. Lumumba played, was horrible, and then was found to be suffering concussion and has since missed 3-4 weeks.  I appreciate the sentiment but I don't think it's correct.

    Especially with no Taylor Adams, Fasola or Moore for up to a month.

    that hurts them far more than no Viney hurts us.

    Just because a player doesn't play well, doesn't mean they are injured.

    Playing this week according to Triple M.   Nothing official from the club yet though.

    Lets just hope that he has a good one and can hold his place long term. Go Jack - Go Dee's

    How was omac not ready? Lumumba has played 200+ games, if he tells coaching staff he is ready, they believe him. Difference between playing poorly and not being ready.

    Spewing from a personal pov if it is this weekend. I've said from the start that I would travel anywhere to see his return but with my young blokes Auskick gala day this weekend which he's been looking forward to, I'll unfortunately have to switch priorities and make it over for the QB game.

    Will get just as much joy watching it on the Tele.

    OMac may not have been injured but IMO he hasn't been ready physically or mentally.  This has been discussed at length on other threads.

    Roos said after the St Kilda game that he (Lumumba) was suffering from concussion and probably shouldn't have played.  

    Tyson's form had been improving before he picked up a virus.  Last week was either an incredible drop in form or he was still suffering the affects of the illness.  I'd back the latter.

    Also Roosy has acknowledged a few times now that they should have dropped some of the younger guys because they were sore and/or tired.  In effect they weren't 100%.

    I think they'd be quite reluctant to rest Tyson given Viney is already out, but otherwise i think he definitely needs a week off.

    Would be amazing to see Trenners back, but gee I'd hate to see him come back in a game where we get smashed.Hold him backs week. QB comeback in front of a massive crowd, we roll the Pies and Wattsy kicks 7. That would be fitting

    How about we not try to manufacture scenarios and just play the bloke if he's ready and makes us better ?

    And also allow him to get re-acquainted against the best competition in the league. No point debuting him against Collingwood who will probably be softer than Hawthorn.

    • 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.
