Forgot about Vince. Might get a week. 

If so I'd probably leave Vandenberg in. 

Out Vince, Bugg

In Brayshaw, Garlett

Players will be dropped  in relation to our opponent - Collingwood, who are dominated by a whole pack of B grade midfielders.

I would love Peders in for Frost, but we need Frost's height and speed as a DEFENDER to counter Moore so this change is unlikely.

Garlett comes in for sure but I can only think of Bugg to be dropped and they play so differently it is not a good swap.

Bernie will go for a few weeks, so Brayshaw comes back in.

AVB has been seriously disappointing so far this season. 

I still think we brought him back in to the seniors too soon.  I think he needed a few weeks at Casey to get rid of the cobwebs after his injury but he wasn't given the chance.  Plus it seemed as though he was going to spend plenty of time in the midfield, yet he has been stuck up forward for the majority of it.

Forward and pinch hitting in the ruck.

Ok thankyou. So who played on Waite/Brown/Petrie? And how did Stretch and Wagner play? Either of them to be dropped?

Definitely. And just as bad, he is letting my very proud and illustrious super coach team down.

They rotated on them.  Dunn and McDonald spent most of the time on them, while I believe Lumumba spent some time on Brown as well.  I'm not totally sure on that though, others at the game might be able to give more insight.

Stretch was handy, Wagner was just okay.  Both should keep their spots for next week.

Vince does only clip him, so should only be a week.

I'd suspend simply for stupidity. What a dumb thing to do. His absence will be huge against the filth.

Vince will get 1, maybe 2 depending on how inconsistent the MRP want to be. 

IN - Brayshaw, Garlett

Out - Vince, Stretch (didn't do anything wrong as such, just reckon we need to give AVB more time). 

The other thing is - I don't want to see Frost play as a forward ever again. The experiment surely needs to be marked a fail at this point. Maybe bring Pedo in, and move Frost back.

I also don't want to see Howe play a flukey cameo and rub it in that he left, the pea heart. Presumably Lumumba gets the match up or maybe Wagner, - wouldn't be shocked if the brought Garland back to play on him (not saying i want that to happen, before all the hate is directed my way.

If Howe gets another game after the (lack of) effort he put in on Saturday then Collingwood are in big trouble. He was a ghost.

They won't drop him after one game especially when he is coming against his old club.

I think we've seen the last of Garland.  Hallelujah! 

Also think Jeffy is a definite in,  whilst one of ANB and Brayshaw gets a run. 

Maybe in: Jeffy,  Brayshaw 

Out: Vince,  Stretch

I don't think they'll drop him either due to the circumstances, but that's because they are in big trouble. His effort was pathetic and he'd be dropped in any other team any other week.

Yes M jones got the ball a lot, also slammed them onto his boot without looking

Are you talking about Matt Jones or Bernie Vince?

Jones did it two or three times, Vince did it nine or ten!

Frost, M Jones, Harmes, Kent. will be in the gun.

 

we won't see Petracca or Trenners, ANB, Brayshaw, Garlett and Pedders should come in. I doubt weeds would come in either.

No room for Pederson IMO. Harmes had five tackles and wouldn't be first out for me. Kent did kick four. For my money two changes is enough for a team that could have just as easily taken the points.

Garlett in for Wagner.

Someone in for Frost.

Fair dinkum, dude....did you watch the game?

Clearly Brayshaw and Jeffy are best 22. If fit they are in.

Bugg is one out - so Garlett is first in.

Frost for mine is the next out and Brayshaw in.

I know that creates height / match up imbalances but [censored] that, we need those two in our best side.

Regardless of todays outcome, given Casey Form last night I have both Weeds and Petracca in next week vs Collywobles!

The rest I will think about after todays game!

Looking at reports from those who actually attended the Casey game, I don't think anyone said the Weed was ready for a game yet, but you obviously know better.

Some would ask you the same if you are saying to drop Watts.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
