Does it matter Jnr?

FD appear to see him as yesterday's hero who does not fit the current player requirement.

How on earth do you come to that conclusion? He had just come back into the side which suggests he does fit tbe current player requirement. Strange

    They preferred others for a month. He was dropped for what appeared to be no defensive pressure which is something the FD now shows is not negotiable. He then produced some very good games at Casey but stayed anchored at Casey.  He got in against the Crows in Darwin because our injuries list left not much else. It was a choice between him and Kennedy. That really means there was no choice. He is remnant from the bad old days and I suspect that is how the FD see him. Don't be surprised if he puts his hand up from transfer at seasons end.

    Maybe he isn't meeting current requirements, but a bit early to tell old fella. Season still rolling along and all.

    Cards it is not me making those decisions it is the FD.

    i am just commenting on how I see their decisions.

    as well he has a dislocated shoulder so we may not see him again in 2017 at senior level.

    Not happy. Today I had the day off and assumed training would be on at the normal time although it wasn't an open session and I also wanted to visit the Demon Shop to buy an indigenous jumper. So I rode my bike down to Gosch's around 10 a.m. only to find an empty oval. I back tracked to the Gee and to the Demon Shop only to find the indigenous jumpers are in short supply. They had extra small, small, then 2XL to 4XL. Nothing in the middle that fitted me so no sale. I checked some other stuff but they also had very small or large sizes only. So I suppose that is a sign of good sales. So maybe next year then.

    At his best he is a very good player. I heard Roos describe him as " elite". I don't want to give up on him. Look at his R3 game v Cats. Kicked a couple, missed several. Has great pace and, at his best, tackles ferociously

    Trouble is Farmer he only produces his best one week in four.

    how many has he played this year? The answer is six and only 58 for his career.

    IMO his lack of games this year is down to our improving list. Three years ago he was a walk up start. Not so now.

    He's been flown to Sweden for their state-of-the-art pillows.

    Don't you need an Allen key to put those together?

    It's probably more a sign that  we're not as fat as the KFC Richmond supporters or as skinny as the Collingwood ones who can't chew solids.

    Clear scans, why wouldn't his ankle continue to improve?

    This week (and the remaining weeks) is life and death. Gawn must be risked.

    Not sure if you remember the first encounter against North in round 9, but Goldstein got about 122 hitouts as their midfield ran riot to get the win. I know Goldy may not be playing this week but we need to win the midfield battle regardless of who Norf rucks this week.

  • Quote

    I agree with BBP - North play tall (Brown, Waite, Goldy/Pruess/Daw). I think Pedo was awesome the first 6-7 weeks he was in the side but his last 2-3 games patchy. If Gawn is really that questionable, I'd be looking at Spencil first. Need ruckman height, win ball in middle to negate their fwd line.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
