Not sure why my intial thread got taken down but, so I'll keep this simple. 

Probably one of the worst AFL players going around and its time we see the last of this potato.

With May coming in next week i expect tonight we'll be the last we'll see him in a red and blue jumper.. ever!

    I don’t like player bashing but he is the definition of a liability.

    Some of his defensive efforts on Jenkins were woeful.

    Yeah I agree. Nothing personally against him, probably a great guy but just not cut out for a key defensive position.

    I have been an Oscar supporter god knows why ,, probably because of his whipping boy status. but tonight showed he is not up to it. I suspect the club had always known hence the lever and may recruitments

    2 1/2 years of poor substandard footy 

    2017 he was “developing” and we had to be patient 

    2018 he was hidden by our excellent form

    2019 slow weak turnover beaten

    Seriously??? And play who? May was coming back from injury, lever, hore and petty were out. Plus at least he didn't turn the ball over every time he had it out of defence. He was no where near the reason we lost tonight, 1.8 in the last and stupid decisions going forward were

    He can take JKH and Wagner with him too.

    And Goodwin should join him.

    Zero passion for the backbone of the club, us fans. Full of lame excuses but won’t get a bloody kicking coach!

    Honestly, I don't see the point in throwing more trash at him, he has been in only because of injuries to both of our first-choice key defenders. When May and Lever return, and with the development of Hore, return of Smith, and even the impending prospect of Petty overtaking him, Oscar's time and role at the club is in a twilight.

    Railing against his presence in our best 22 is about as sensible as railing against the continuing of season 2019. We know the situation, we know it will end, we know there will be a new dawn.

    Might as well as least let some peace flow in the meantime. Don't cling to bitterness.

    He is contracted until the end of season 2020 so unless a trade partner can be found he will be around next season.

    At this point I'd almost throw him forward in the vfl and see how he goes. He played some junior footy forward so it wouldn't hurt to see if he can help our forward depth in 2020. We can rule out the backline for him as a suitable place to play.

    CLEARLY didnt not watch tonights game. he is a spud and will be making his way out for Steven May.

    There is nothing tonight that justify any sense of support whatsoever. He was pathetic.

    If May and Lever can stay on the park when they return, O Mac played his last game for the MFC tonight.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
