He started in the centre and had 1 possession to halftime I think.

He started on ball. At the opening bounce he was in the middle.

He did nothing the entire first half.

So he didn't get a touch at the opening bounce...you think he was in the midfield for the entire first half?

I reckon we started to get the mix right as the game went on.

Brayshaw is an integral part of that mix if we're going to be successful.

6. Clarrie - back yourself son and you will be elite as shown tonight 

5. May - awesome down back never looked in trouble 

4. Viney - set the tone in the first and was good throughout 

3. Lever - along with May controlled the backhalf although some strange decisions to punch when he could have marked but very good overall 

2. Trac - nearly set the game alight on several occasions and showed some real class at times

1. Weid/Jacko - loved their work together in bringing the ball to ground and second efforts at ground level

The response was in relation to the earlier post, which was wildly wrong and impugned the coaching group, not a comment on the efficacy of Brayshaw.

I agree with the sentiment of the earlier post.

I don't think the coaching group have handled him well at all.

I think we have had the mix in the midfield all wrong.

Tonight was better but as a group they can work a lot better yet.

There's a lot of premature love (and hope) for Jackson!

There's good reason for that 'Fanatique'...he's a beauty.

Yeah the sentiment was good, it just reeked of ignorance factually.

Unbelievable game by Oliver - it was everything we had been hoping for since his debut and shows that both he and Goody have finally understood what so many have said on DL and other places. That was the most elite game we have seen by anybody at this club for a long, long time.

Apologies to Lever. 
 

Salem was ok but not in my best.  He still didn’t use the footy to a huge advantage. 15 metre kicks are soft targets for a bloke with his talent. He can lift and show us what he is really capable of.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
