Every side has VFL standard players, as not every player drafted becomes an AFL player, simply on numbers alone.

The aim is to have 22 very good AFL players in your side and then depth players.

The better lists bat a bit deeper, or have stars among their best 22.

Most young players when drafted, are clearly VFL players or worse.

It is silly to say we are no good because we have VFL players, we always will, but hopefully less of them.

    The post doesn’t say that we are no good because we have VFL level players. It says “The MFC will not win a premiership until it recruits and develops elite players like those of Richmond, Geelong, Collingwood, West Coast. We have chosen poorly in the past year and developed some potential elite players poorly. Max Gawn was just about our only elite player this year based on performance. The catastrophic drop to the bottom of the ladder had a reason. We just don’t have the cattle.”

    Who do you think played at the elite level this year?

    I thought Salem first 2/3 of the season, then poor for the rest.

    He got injured towards the end of the season and wasn't the same player.

    I have no problem signing Wagner on for another year.  He is on the rookie list after all, so it may just be that he has kept his spot on there for 2020, rather than being upgraded.  He showed he could be a depth player so this doesn't hurt us at all in the grand scheme of things.

    Great reply. Attack the poster rather than the content. Which players do you think were elite this year?

    How many on your list were actually given a run at AFL level? How many were injured? How many were first year or rookies? It was a laughable post.

    It wasn’t my list. It was President Dee Trump. Glad you can still laugh at yourself though!

    My mistake, but the comment stands regarding the PDTs list. And for someone who was complaining about the fact I attacked the poster, you’re doing quite well on that front with the second line of your post, no?

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      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.
