Yikes. The opposition forwards would be licking their lips waiting for the turnovers. I think he is an inside mid pure and simple.

And, at the moment, not a very good one at that....

Shame, I really want Dom to find his mojo again

    JKH looks like a little lost kid on the field, he just can't seem to get to the next level.

    In Vanders 

    Out JKH

    Disagree

    He looked like a lost kid when Dawes was bullying him

    Now, he is bigger, he ran hard all day and didn't mind the physicality of the game

    Geelong really only have 1 tall forward: Hawkins. For match ups, I'm thinking Frost might get left out. Gawn dropped back successfully a number of times vs dogs. 

    It would be crazy to drop Frost with Hawkins back in form. 

    Gawn already has enough on his plate. He would not be able to drop back often enough to stop Hawkins from having a picnic.

    Hmmmm I am thinking Bugg to run with Selwood.......has the endurance, speed and strength...and it would free up our other mids from a tagging role.

    Harmes tagged Macrae in 2 nd half and did well.

    Danger Selwood and Bullethead only run one way.  Get lots of possies.  If we make every ball contested and make them defend us then they will be well out of their comfort zone.

    Interesting that with more than a day’s notice, they still went Hannan.  Says a lot about where they see Tyson.

    JKH stays in, maybe Tyson for Hannan, or maybe as a left field idea, Weids to stretch their backline with height, and chop out in the ruck.

    Can see Harmes and maybe Vince doing run with roles.  Can see Trac stepping up.  Think they will tag Brayshaw and try to stop Clarrie running to the contest.

    Should be a good game.  Can’t see their backs betting our forwards, and can see us holding our own in defence.  Battle then of the midfields.  If the Brady Bunch can get up and running, we are stuffed.  If we can smash them into contest after contest, we will win.

    AVdB and Baker not ready yet, but not far away.  Kielty not yet, but hopefully gets a run before the end of the H/A.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      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.
