I'll be dissapointd if Jetta goes. Hacing watched the replay o it, Bont comes up behind him and Jetts action is to shrug him off. Yeah he shrugs hard and contacts Bonts jaw with his elbow, but it is reasonable for Jetta to expect that opposing players don't come up and try and grab you from behind, which is what Bont did.

Thought Michie was quite good and ahead of Hunt and Wagner. Finally accept Garland is finished. Pederson also may well make way for Dawes. ANB must come in surely.

 

Garland finished? he's contracted until 2018...Dunn 2017....bet list management wish they had their time over again

The MRP will be well aware of that. They will do what they do each week for each incident: take into consideration all aspects of the clash, apply their expertise and, bearing in mind their high level of responsibility and duty to the game, spin the chooklotto wheel.

He looks down and out. No spark - not creative enough and can't match it with the talls and too slow for the smalls. Don't know where he fits in any more.

I thought Michie was solid and composed and certainly shouldn't be dropped on today's performance.

Out : Garland for Dunn, Harmes for ANB & Hunt for Lumumba

Jack T comes in if there is a suspension.  I'm assuming Kent will need more time out.

IMHO both Harmes & Bugg are both just dour, hardworking, tackling players who just don't give you enough decent possession so I would just play one of them and would definitely have ANB & JT ahead of both of them when all are match fit.

Todays showed us where we were at...

Now Roos and co please select the real team...too many of our players are getting games on form against teams like GC then dropping off when the real heat comes.

We can't afford to be playing Trengove at Casey any longer, he is in the top few players at the club, a real leader with AFL level skills, he's injury free and ready to go.

ANB has earned his place...

Out: Garland (hopefully never to be seen at AFL level again), Hunt, Vince (Susp)

In: Dunn, Lumumba, ANB

Dawes surely needs more game time after missing most of the pre-season. If Kent is fit, I would look at bringing him back too, but not convinced that Roos will make 4 changes. Fingers crossed Nev Jetta isn't rubbed out, because at the moment he is the only thing holding our backline together. I am confident every time he is at the contest.

Michie no turnovers that I can remember one of the few

Yes, but that's not necessarily as positive an observation as it might seem ... the knock on Michie is his contested play. He's rarely in the heat of the battle, thus, rarely puts himself under real pressure.  Consistently (well, the two games he's played ...) near/at the bottom of the contest possession count.

Doing enough? Not sure. I would probably take Newton or ANB over him based on Casey form. Then there's Trengove ...

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
