So now no Weideman. That means Tom Mac, Weeds, Melksham, and arguably VDB and Garlett are unavailable from first choice forward 6, and throw in both T & J Smith as first cabs off the rank as backup.

    I wonder if Petty will have some time up forward he is good overhead and may defend the area better than some of our forwards. Looks like max and Brayden will rest at full forward.

    Yes but our back six looks good!

    The Dunkley family will enjoy seeing Josh and Kyle on the same pitch.  Special day for them. 

    Hope Kyle gets a few decent tackles on his older bro!

    Why not play Keilty forward?

    You'd think so, doesn't bode well for his future beyond 2019.

    I'm surprised that both JWag or Omac were emergencies, Even just play one to allow May or Frosty to swing forward. 

    Petracca Time!! He will rip them apart.

    Unfortunately when you get a chance against the bottom club, Gold Coast, and you look a million miles away, your cards are quite rightly marked. 

    Perhaps a Similar situation with JKH, despite several Casey bog’s that insipid mistake in the dying minutes of the Crows game where he went to ground and allowed Jenkins to goal, may well have marked his cards.

    in time i would not be surprised to see frost become a ggreat midfielder,big body strong and fast.If he improves his agilty and aroebics he would be a real handful in centre clearances

    He cannot turn The Queen  Mary turns in less arc than Frosty and we already have enough wasteful players in the mids and forwards at goal kicking!

    Petty to go forward please and May a possibility  in desperation.

    13 goals wins this game !! 


    I just like how we've gone from having no fit defenders to no fit forwards. 

    topsy-turvy'd our initial problem.

    needs to work on his goal kicking to be taken seriously.

    Surely Brayshaw's got to step up this week, show a bit of  form and kick a few goals for the teams sake. If he continues on the way he has been playing lately he should be dropped.

    Absolutely sublime music Uncle!! Welcome to the Cruise!!

    Ok I'll give Oscar a chance in the Forward line... You just cannot get fairer than that!!

    Look on the bright side

    The Bulldogs defence will have no idea which of our players gets their best defender

    I thought 2019 couldn't get any worse but yes it does in the sense that we are getting zero momentum for 2020.

    • 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.

    • 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.
