Changes v Fremantle

Featured Replies

 

Outs Petty, Tyson & Hannan

Ins Frost, Baker & Jeffy. 

The amount of inside 50s we get and marking contests jeffy will be kicking 3 a week minimum. 

OUT: Tyson, Hannan, ANB

IN: Stretch, Spargo, Baker

Would love to see Lewis given a rest but the only option to bring in for him is Vince, and there’s no point swapping one superannuation applicant for another...

 

 

I say give Keilty a go over Petty. Dec is a mature age recruit who has been playing VFL for 4 years now and has been in good form. I don't think he would've looked anywhere near as lost as Petts did out there today.

Hannan was very poor, has to go. Tyson did a little in the last but was unsighted prior to that, will get the flick. Reckon they'll give Petty another week, same for Weideman. 

 


22 that can play with killer instinct and play for their football lives! We are now on the skids and cooked.  Any side in the Comp knows we are weak when the going gets tough.

Spargo must come in.  

We simply cannot carry petty he needs go go 

I thought Weids was ok. Competed well. But the balance forward is wrong. Every forward, even the short ones, play tall. So every one of them can only play one way, which is going for overhead marks. That’s great, except they all crowd up the space and nobody stays down for the crumb. Even Fritsch, who I think is fantastic, is a marking forward.

Agreed. Frost is NQR, but at least he’s somewhat experienced and physically capable of going with a big body. 

Forget Gaff, can we get McGovern?

IN: Frost, Garlett

OUT: Petty, Hannan 

In; Stretch, Garlett, Frost, Hannan

Out; Tyson, Petracca, Petty, Spargo

All 4 should go. You don't reward mediocrity. But then again, effing Goodwin does.

Out, Petty, Smith, Hannan, Lewis ANB 

In Baker, Frost, Pederson, Spargo Stretch

Hardly weak against Port when the going got tough. Old Melbourne problem, against lower teams think it is a gimmee. Afraid Weids aint no Murray Weidemann. I would drop Petty and Weids and bring in Frost and Jeffy.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
