I am always interested in those that want Salem on a wing. What makes people think he is suited to a wing? Don’t we think that 2 years ago when we tried 10+ players there and no on suited there is a reason he was not one of them. 

That is probably the missing link Red how do you know for sure Salo can't play wing. 
I wouldn't mind him on HFF with cameos on the ball.

I dont. Though  I will back that being we have never put him there the club either feel the same or rate more highly his value out of the back half. My personal view is he does not have the tank or natural want to push up and back to meet the requirements of the role. I also think he is one that reads the ball better with the ball coming at him. I understand that some would love him kicking the ball inside 50 which he could do more as a high half forward. However I do think his best value continues to be off half back.

Could be but surely you saw his last 3/4 games in 2020 he was pushing up from HB to HF and running his hardest ever. He actually impacted games esp the GWS one and even kicked a goal, 

I believe he can become an A grader if he uses his skills and gets a tank and impacts the team performance and would like him up the ground as I believe He also bought Much more urgency to his game .
Worth a try in my opinion.

You expecting us to lose that's a lot of outs for round 2. You don't even have Baker in your round 1 team how can he be dropped when he isn't in the team in the first place.

just a bit of humour...

Defensive wingman; he’s named there but plays role of the 7th defender 

i also had him on a wing but i didn't have a defender on the bench

Tommo or Petty needed at CHB so Lever can intercept Mark.

Its no good naming a team now that cannot play Due to injury. With respect.

Bit of a slap in the face for young Werriddee say What

Would like Petty for Tommo  and Bowey for Hunty but perhaps Monday may take Care of that.

Most of you have Jones in your 22, we have youth with more skill that need game time 

Sparrow Chandler Jordan, give them a go 

Not necessarily what I believe is the best 22, but this is the team I believe will play Round 1 based on injuries, form and coach's preferences:

JETTA.               MAY.                   LEVER.     
SALEM.       TOMLINSON.             HUNT. 
BAKER.            OLIVER.          LANGDON.  
SPARGO.     MCDONALD.   MELKSHAM.  
JACKSON.      FRITSCH.       CHANDLER. 

GAWN.         PETRACCA.      BRAYSHAW. 

HARMES.  RIVERS.  SPARROW.  JONES. 


Emergency: Petty, Jordon, Neal Bullen, Bowey.


Injured / building fitness in the VFL:
Pickett, Viney, VandenBerg, Hibberd, Brown, Weideman.

Seriously Roost it far and Werribee have you watched the 2 games vs Tigers snd Dogs ???
RIF What  point  Were you trying to get across by posting a 7/1/21 team fir all Jacks? Do you agree or not ?? Or by no comment you are highlighting how far it is off a real collection both any balance and pace.
the FB line with Jets  and Tommo any pace there ?? Riv at CHB yes Change for Tommo maybe BUT if Petty doesn't replace Tommo and/ or Locky ( now injured) with Bowey the next in line.Replace Jetta We may as well not have practice games.

And Werridee why is Hunt at BP?  At least If he plays HB is his possie! Rivers on the bench at least he Has completed the training and is match fit ahead of Hibbo. Petty not better than Tommo? 
 

And Baker yes someone has to play wing  but his form  in both games suggests he is still off the mark fir possessions and skill Salem RIF yes don't mind that. 
Werribee Bakes  has appeared  on the winG in EVERY team since last year You have put up! No other solution to our "other wing" problem despite underwhelming stats in both practice games. 
 

And both have Melksham   on the  HFF on no match practice This year and No form for 2 years!! Chandler or ANB deserve to start at least.

Yes it's only opinion but Pruess in the wet Was head in sand stuff  snd Jets Baker snd Tommo haven't worked  in the 2021 practices so similarly we need a different mix!!

That majestic it even worse !!!! 
Jetta Baker and Tomlinson and Melksham

its not 2018 for Jetta and Melksham form!

And practice matches for Tommo  and Baker do not Come up with BEST anything!

Hunt lucky probably as his best form is 2017!!!!

And really if one of our Key position players goes down where is any backup ie Petty or Tmac or M.Brown I suppose we can swing Weid around  a bit. 
 

In reality Werridee Your selections are  like Goody's very  conservative and no dare or flare! 
And very 2018 ish!  
Ang you have had about  20 goes at it this season so far.

  • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

    Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’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 women’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 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.
