The whole booing fiasco of Petty and Zorko was cringeworthy.

The clubs (at least) publicly resolved the issue and the crowd should’ve left it at that.

All it did was spur on Zorko who played well.

Brisbane players were making fun of him - I hope Geelong cream them

Had a superb season and looks a future AA level key defender. His development is one of the few positives from this season.

I've lost a lot of respect for Brisbane in the last month.

Absolutely. They are Collingwood Filthy level

Petty was getting in McCarthy's face last night, and the wiping away tears response was predictable, and made Petty look like a sook. Petty should have just minded his own business all night and focused on his job

The whole incident spurred Brisbane on, and they who laughed last laughed loudest!

I think you answered your own question mate.

I'd rather keep him back too, but we need forwards, so as a stop gap selection in game or if we suffer injuries like this year, I reckon he'd be very good forward.

Edit. I used to be against moving Petty at all, but I've become an advocate for it as we haven't been able to address our KPF issue and Weideman hasn't come on, and TMac's injury has made it painfully clear we need more KPFs.

Unless we can land a KPF forward I agree Petty forward will be needed.

If and it’s a big IF we could find a suitable replacement down back Harrison could fill TMacs shoes as he has big engine as well. I was surprised by how much Territory young Petty covers.

At what stage of his career did AA CHB Neitz, later Coleman medalist, go forward?  3-4 years?

Yet despite that I hope they put the Cats out of everybody’s misery next week

I absolutely love him. He is so brave, so competitive, great composure under pressure, wonderful contested mark. He really has all the makings of an AA CHB or CHF. 

 

Would be gutted if he does a Scott Thompson on us. Certainly one of the shining lights of season 2022 was Mr. Petty.

One of if not Taylor’s most inspired selections to date.

Will never forget his debut against the Saints at the G where one of his kicks literally ran along the ground sideways.

Since then the bloke has been a pillar of strength. Will finish as a Melbourne champion.

My fave currrent player.

🌹 coloured 👓 

The one positive (only in an insight sense) from last night's game was witnessing what Petty can bring up forward.  So for 2023....

Weid to take Petty's place.  Can also pinch hit in the ruck with Max resting down back to help out when he does.

Petty goes forward as a permanent forward.

Macca as the other tall forward.

Start blooding JVR for Macca when Macca is being occasionally rested/managed throughout the season as needed.  JVR also in when we occasionally need a third tall to stretch the oppo's defence etc.

Sydney turned McCartin's career around by sending him back.  Is it worth trying with the Weid Who also has rucking abilities up his sleeve?

Three potential wins if we can pull this off in 2023...

👉🏼  We gain a strong marking 'MOBILE' tall forward with significant AFL / Finals experience without having to trade one in.  And one who appears to be capable of kicking goals

👉🏼  Weid switches with Max in the ruck about 20% of time allowing Max to plug a hole down back.  Max no longer needing to rest as a forward where he rarely marks/hits the scoreboard anyway and is often wasting space for a better alternative.  Max often plays back now and intercepts quite well on occasions with pretty good outcomes.

👉🏼  No longer need to chase a back up ruck for Max assuming LJ is going.  Use that pick on a classy ball user with some pace through the middle or off HB.  Or alternatively go after another tall forward in case the Petty experiment fails and/or as a replacement for Macca when he retires.

Ditto. Their fans were inflammatory last night. Absolute [censored]. 

lions used to be a sorta second team but no more

Brisbane fans were disgraceful last night, thought they were better than that but that was absolute tripe from them, hope Geelong send them packing, bunch of arrogant tools. How they could find it in them to boo petts is beyond me. 

The fact anyone can defend Zorko as a captain is utterly contemptible.  

Edited by Tom Dyson

Saw a number of Brisbane fans being escorted from the ground by security and police, at least one in handcuffs. There was certainly a foul component from a section of their supporter base last night.

Totally agree - absolutely love the bloke, busts a gut every time. He could go up to CHF with Disco Turner replacing him in the back line.

Agree 

JVR Tmac Petty the three and BBB as depth and at least a draft key forward again this year. 
Weid a replacement for Jacko. As2nd ruck and small forward play.

This was one of the reasons I didn't want this rematch so soon. Didn't trust everyone involved to have the mental fortitude to move past this with ease.

Classless morons.

How nice of this father to teach his daughter the value of showing your emotions. Enjoy therapy kid.

Hadn’t seen that one. I read a whole stack of comments though, absolute Filth

In the 4 minutes he played as a forward, he took a screamer of a mark and subsequent goal, set up the Langdon goal and the Kozzie inexplicable miss.

Imagine what damage he could’ve done if played all night as a forward.

  • 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.

    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

    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.

    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.
