With a four day break and a few passengers today, there are a few options on the table here.

Jetta was really poor and I wouldn't be upset to see Rivers return.

Each of Jones, Brayshaw and Bennell struggled IMO. But is there anyone outside the 22 who is an improvement? Does TMac get one of their spots? Are we going to see players like Smith or Hunt or ANB coming in to bring some extra run after the short break?

Perhaps a rotation of minutes rather than players. Not sure what is happening with Harmes. Jetta looks in trouble.

Need to stop kick outs to Max. At least bring in Mc Donald as another tall option!

It's where you bring your best guns.

Not sure we can put out a much better side.

I suspect we will have plenty of time to experiment for the rest of the season.

worth a thought if the weather suits.

 

Out Brayshaw, Jetta, Harmes

In Rivers, Tmac, Tomlinson

Jones got better as the game went on

No one is dropping Harmes, even if he did have a poor game.

If Harmes isn't holding on to a jumpers and giving away a free, he's then trying to break tackles and gets pinged for it.

Dead set so predictable. 

Jones was OK, not the worst. Equal most I50's, which is what you need from a wing.

Amongst the rest, time for Tom Sparrow?

Jones gets another week.  I still think the game is passing him by but he did okay.

I think Jetta needs a spell.  Give Rivers another crack.

I'd also not be against Gus getting dropped for Tomlinson.

Also, I hope they stick with Jackson and Weideman.  Outside of the dodgy kicking for goal from Weid, both are doing a good job right now.  They deserve to keep their spots.

That would be my out.

Bring in Tomlinson and perhaps Rivers.

The head is a bit big at the moment 'dazz' & there's no reason for it...

Needs to get back to basics or take a break.

I think we need to rest our younger ducks and get the older ducks in for Thursday nights game.

OUT: Jones, Jetta, O. Mac
IN: Tomlinson, Rivers, T. Mac (def)

I wouldn’t be so sure about that.
Goodwin gave him a special gee up at 3 qtr time but he didn’t respond at all.

Harmes is having an ordinary season and there wouldn’t be one game this year where he’s been in our best 6-8.

Like Brayshaw, he’s probably struggling with a clearly defined position on the ground.

Possibly (he was pretty good last week IIRC), but he's barely been in our bottom 6-8 like, unfortunately, Jetta and Brayshaw were today.

If you're talking about the 'fence' variety, then yes, he needs a rest.

I don't think we adapted to the wet (they did get 160mm of rain an hour before the game). I doubt Goody will make too many changes. I was pleased for Jones on the wing he did his job. Sadly the game has passed Nev by, at the moment and he will be rested. I would like to see T Mac back and would replace Fritsch who just isn't doing enough.If he doesn't mark it he does nothing on the ground and is out of form IMO. I also wonder if Bennell will be rested on a 5 day break.

Out Jetta Fritch

IN T Mac definite Smith or Neal Bullen  (latter 2 were emergencies for this game so they must be close)

Depends on the weather. If it’s another wet slippery pitch I  would not play Kosi or Pickett. dont misunderstand me I think both are future stars but in these conditions Tom McD and ANB would have been better 

TMac back to provide a mobile big man around the ground to take some predictability off Max (who is doing a great job)

Jackson was great in first half, but I think a young player would find it hard to back up after a 4 day break. Having said that , just like we have a million inside mids we seem to have a lot of medium fwds in Hannan, Melsham and Fritsch. SO maybe one of them may be rested.

Unfortunately I feel Nev Jetta is struggling with pace of the game at the moment, Lockart was good tonight so maybe Rivers gets another go.

Surely Gus has run out of lives. Almost anyone would be an upgrade atm. Wouldn’t mind seeing Sparrow get a go

Sparrow is good. Tough quick and competitive. He shouldve been in tonight

Both give us something we don't have.

That first Pickett dangerous tackle free was a joke...the 2nd one maybe but...

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
