Match Preview and Team Selection - Round 6

seven ins just blows my mind ... sorry will have to wait until they pare the side down tomorrow.

Stretch was definitely unlucky by comparison to many of those left in the side.

Good luck to Spargo. He does have good ball sense.

I believe you are suggesting he played at a less than optimum level... something shared by a number of players who are still included in the team was the gist of my post.


It's going to be painful to watch if ANB plays a 6th consecutive poor game in a row. I really don't see the reasoning behind picking a player who's only strength is his running capacity at this moment...I would have thought an ability to dispose of the footy would be a higher priority. Times are a changing...

He did lay 9 tackles against Richmond, so not exactly "done nothing".

Ok he tackles.  How many years on the list?  Wanna see improvement!

Just saw the bombers side, if we don’t beat that side we’ve got serious issues. 

Famous last words SFebey. 

This is the MFC after all.

5 goals and BOG in a loosing side.  Seriously don't understand why he isn't in the side (or wasn't last game against the Tigs for that matter).  Weid still offers way too little other that a hope that he will one day be great.

Pedo is the Dean Jones of the MFC.

I actually like Pedo but he hasn't really delivered. And its not just us. He's 31yo and has only played 70ish games at two clubs. North didnt rate him either...

Harmes may have laid 9 tackles, but he was caught with the ball 3 times giving away free kicks.

Looks like Spargo will debut according to the club website- Garlett is in trouble methinks.

Spargo is in for more speed, it will be one of ANB, Harmes or Vince who goes.

They don’t usually drop anyone named in the starting 18

You got the 'Less Than'' part right DJ.  I'm just struggling to work out what it was less than!

Yeah I know mate, I should’ve just shut up. I’d be devastated even we lost to that side

We are in a bit of trouble.

Players retained who have hardly had a kick.

Players selected who have hardly had a kick at VFL level (exception Spargo)

Players selected who lack a yard (Lewis)

Player overlooked who has been our best at VFL level (Pedo)

What to do?  I really have no idea.

We are in a pickle.

Your right. Team looks slow with Vince & Lewis in the starting 18. Vince, ANB & Harmes must be on notice.

My interchange would be TMac, Spargo, Frischte & Garlett. All know how to kick a goal, and we have plenty of players who can go in the backline if needed.

We have serious issues - will be seriously serious issues if we can't get over them Sunday. Expecting a nailbighting shite-fest - possibly ending in a rush for remaining seats to Noosa in September.

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.
