    If the most unskilled club in the league can't fit in a highly talented (albeit not at peak fitness) player such as Bennell this week, then I suspect that club and player have unofficially parted ways. 

     

    spot on. He's so skilled that he stood out big time when he has played doing things most of the team can't execute and should be in for that reason alone.

    You do understand that we can't afford players in the team that apply zero defensive pressure?

    Didn't watch the GWS game last night but I have watched them several times.

    In general the teams that are successful against them force the game to be played around the boundary line and deny room to the outside runners by blocking the corridor.

    It makes for an ugly game but so be it.

    Will Goodwin back his usual gameplan or go defensive.

     

    Exactly what is Goodwins game plan? From what I have  seen this year for the most part is get possesion and just blast away into the Forward line

    It would certainly be a good time to play a blinder - it might save a few memberships !

    I don't think we blasted away into the forward line against Freo.  We kept trying slick handballs with the slippery ball, and losing possession. Surely we should have roosted it whenever possible in those conditions.

    Don’t think so. One, he is contracted. Two, he is undergoing surgery and will be sidelined up to 3 months. Really don’t think another club will come sniffing under that scenario.

    While that's his reputation, I didn't see it in the games he played for us.

    I'm not saying he shouldn't remain on our list, but I also think he's still some distance away from his best footy. Will he get there? I don't know.

    Why do people even want to make finals? Do people think you get a trophy for coming 8th and losing first round? 

    we lost to Sydney and Fremantle. convincingly. I'd prefer to lose the next 2 games so change occurs.

    I think so, we need to see what he offers, essentially he is our midfield depth.  If Preuss isn't going to ruck 30% of the time not sure why you would play him, the question is will Brown or Tmac offer more.

    My side

    Rivers Tomlinson Salem

    Langdon Oliver Sparrow

    FWIW, quite a strong wind in East Brisbane today with some significant gusts.  Had some showers earlier and perhaps a little more on the way.  Supposed to be windy again tomorrow with a chance of a shower but the Gabba is fairly well protected from the wind.

    I am hoping for a fast track for tomorrow evening.  We seem to be hopless in wet conditions.

    We are desperate if we are getting excited and rushing Tom Sparrow back in. I think he has been fairly disappointing in every game he has played this year. I don’t think he has contributed anything to the side this year. Very young kid, with a potentially bright future, not going to make a difference this week.

    in 2018, it didnt look like we'd make the finals with 2 rounds remaining then we made a prelim.

    so, anything can happen

    Goody can’t drop Melksham because they are buddies, but Leon Cameron is prepared to drop his captain on the eve of finals.

    There’s some actual ruthlessness

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.

    • NON-MFC: Round 7

      Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.
