I actually thought Frost played well and i know he can be a bit meh at times, but i actually like the look of our backline a lot more now that hes in (i.e. since Lever went down i haven't liked it). I'd happily play him the rest of the year. 

Yes but that was against Freo in Darwin.  not a high reference.  I think he (Frost) can play the wing role, from TMc.

I have faith in experience. The season is tight. We need as much experience as we can get for the next 7 weeks

Our Captains don’t have it. Lewis does

That's the whole point, mate he's 32+yrs old...   we'll need him thru August and September.  His body has had a real workover for 14 years.

We are about to enter some big games, and then finals.

We are limping now since Lever went down.

We entered the season limping with regard to TMc and Viney...  when all those 3 got together, we hit our straps.  Then Lever went down.

We have been battling to find something that will work  at half back since that time.  Since then Oscar started to struggle a bit and Harry Petty experiment didn't workout.

 

So to imply we are traveling well,,, and we should not take any risks now, in July, is crazy.

Now is the time to try to get that back pivot sorted out, as best we can.

 

Personally myself I would bite he bullet and send TMc back to CHB for this year, and play Hogan & Weide, up forward, and Pedo where required.

 

Is agree we are limping and never ever said we are ok. I think we're a good chance to miss finals

i just don't think we should be experimenting on the premise we will be playing finals

 

but that's ok we don't agree.?

To win big games timbo, and to win finals matches, you have to have a mental attitude to take it on, to take your chances, conservative doesn't cut it in Finals.

We have to put it all on the line, and back that right up,,, for keeps.

 

Playing safe is a strong reason to not get there.

Thanks for the couple of years mate...

The experience you have brought to the club has been invaluable but now is the time.

...we need to move on and develop the list now.


He was horrible. But so was the rest of the team. 

He shouldn’t be a walk up start next year, but neither should Jones - who had a worse September than Jordan...

We got shown up between the ears today across the board. To lay it at the feet of the easy targets is a trap we should avoid.

Agree. He was horrible today and made some basic skill errors.

I would hope he does the right thing and retires now 'rp'...it's time.

It's not just the poor game, it's the lack of discipline that I can't take from a senior player.

It happens too often, he set a really poor tone in the first quarter when he should have been rallying the boys.

...as I say, I reckon he's been invaluable around the club for the couple of years we've had him but time is up now.

 

The entire team was horrible. Yeah, Lewis had a shocker but he was excellent in the last two weeks. Overreaction. 


I agree that he should retire. 

Not just based on today's poor showing.

Football is a young man's game. He's too slow.

AFL requires one touch players.

He two grabs even simple marks.

Not alone. But is also not the future. 

2019 is his last year. 


Yeah.... sorry Jordy that was a ropeable effort today. 

Put him into some coaching role.

This is a stupid thread.  Why does most of use always blame Jordan Lewis and Nathan Jones they didn't play well but they wern't the worst. Way too big of a overreaction.

Rubbish. Lewis was immense in our two wins. He had a bad day today but so did Gawn and Jones. And many others.

It's time for Lewis & Vince. And the end is coming fast for Jones. 


Experience should get you a steady hand, cool head, decent decision-making, good execution, discipline and leadership.

In that first quarter we got anything but.

We hardly had a winner on the day, but he set the tone and was WOG for mine, when the game was there to be lost.

If he plays next year, we might as well rebuild.

I do value loopy handballs and handballs to intercepts from a 4x premiership player. 

 

Disc: very aware the team as a whole was pus

Nathan Jones needs a new role. He has earned the right to be indulged a bit so long as he contributes and he is not keeping any one out.

His best position is still inside mid to hold the ball in but he is being denied the role.

Maybe others should be trained to play his outside role that is more natural for them. I see Harmes and Brayshaw with the right attributes.

FD better think hard.

 

Lewis was probably our worst today. So many critical errors at critical times.

But Jones was terrible, Gawn played his worst game for the year, Oliver was poor and possibly also played his worst game for the year, TMac was unsighted.

Both Lewis and Jones are coming to the end and it's going to be interesting to see what we do with them in 2019.

Played some decent games towards the end of the year but cracks started to open in the final term against the Hawks and they busted wide open against the Eagles.

Coaching or media role surely beckons.

  • 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.

    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.
