    Agree re Garlett. Hard to know how to judge that game. he did kick 3 but critical errors prob coast 3 more. He stays for now.

    But too early to dump JKH he wasnt our worst. Id give a Hannon a week off instead as he clearly wasnt ready. Preuss played a shocker on the weekend so I wouldnt be picking him either.ย

    Given JKH has not played a senior game this year I didnโ€™t think he was too bad. I actually thought Spargo wasnโ€™t that bad either. At least they try and get the ball at a contest, unlike you know who.ย

    No way T Mac will get dropped

    Youse are all kidding

    He should be though, he's offered nothing all season. Or move him to the wing, but it looks like he's lost his running capacity this year.ย 

    In: lever, may, hore, ANB, Salem (all best 22 so not just reactionary to a loss)

    Out: tmac, omac, Wagner, garlett and stretch. Fritsch moved up the ground to try and find some form.

    TMac still carrying the foot injury. Red line him for the season I reckon.

    I suspected there would have to be at least one fool suggest Frost be dropped. If Frost were to be dropped, which wonโ€™t happen by the way, there would never have been a player dropped previously that has come off such a solid bank of games. Last nightย he soundly beatย Tex Walker, a 400 careerย goal kicker, and you want him dropped. WTF.ย

    The idea of rushing back players who have been out for long periods is just nuts.Season is gone, so stop the bloody desperation selections and only pick players on form.

    Hannan proved it, and JKH to a lesser extent.

    May played well, so he deserves the recall. Lever has not. I really hope he plays at least once more in the 2's to find some form.

    Dont risk underdone players when the season is already over.ย

    Frost has been excellent all year in a Blitzkrieged Backline. In fact I reckon he will be top 6 in the B&F !

    Serious question, but is there a compelling reason to go to this game? Collingwood home game, any general admin tickets go to their coffers. Weโ€™re also likely to lose.ย 

    I feel this could be an 80-20 crowd split this game.

    I'm not going for the reason above and as a protest against Goodwin and the insipid culture of the club and this playing group.

    Also if suggest not risking lever and may now that there is nothing to play for. Why not ease them back over three or four weeks?

    Get along to Casey where we play the Pies on Sunday. Good chance of a win and the bacon and egg rolls are wonderful. :)

    Jesus.

    Viney finally starting to find some form. Last game he looked fitter and able to do more and last night I thought he was one of our best.

    I suspect Hannan and Kennedy-Harris were brought in one week earlier than planned so that next week we can bring in another tranche of formerly injured players. Hannan didn't look ready but Iย thought Kennedy-Harris was good. It is questionable whether it is wise to bring in all of Salem, Hore, May and Lever - 4 defenders - at once, even though all of them deserve their place in the team. Nevertheless, given where our season is at, I would bring them all in and omit O McDonald, Stretch, J Wagner and Spargo. Fritsch finally gets the chance to go forward in place of Spargo.

    Spargo could count himself unlucky as he was much better than Hannan, but he (Hannan) needs a second game before we judge him too harshly.ย 

    Neal-Bullen, if he's ready, will have to wait another week. It's not like he has been dominating when he's been in the side and I think four unforced changes at once is enough.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Womenโ€™s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the womenโ€™s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • 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 yesterdayโ€™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 andย  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.
