Lockhart not even an EMG this week, would love the club to bring forward some transparency on what's happening with him.

 

Fair enough.

Is Lockhart going to be delisted? Can't get a game, can't even get a spot in the emergencies, was beaten to the small defender spot by Jetta who, though we all love him, was not in form when selected, got dropped out of nowhere.

Looks like the end of an era with Jones and Jetts on the way out sadly. 
 

Positive change with Hibbs run and skills.

Re Lockhart

You have to wonder if the smiling after errors and turnovers turned Goodwin off?  Probably reading into it too.much. Perhaps just boils down to the repetition of some costly decision making. Hope he is playing next year. Has great potential.

No Jacko. If we need to gain 50+ points on the Saints we better be hoping GWS make up the lions share of them as I can't see us doing it tbh. 

 

Gotta love the media. Headline on AFL site that Dons Wield The Axe. Actually 3 ordinary players out and 3 good players back. They are much stronger than last game. Hardly wielding the axe.

Smith: 191

May:193

Lever:195

Hibbo:186

Rivers:188

Tomlinson: 194

Avg: 191.2

Essendon have 3 forwards under 185cm

all they have to do is let the ball bounce in their forward 50 and we're royally f'ed in the a**

We could use a Baker's dozen.

Really?

Rivers, Hibberd and Salem are more than handy at ground level, while May is no slouch either.  Seems like a strange argument.

On Lockhart - strange how much love he is now getting, although I agree with it.

Hibberd in is the right move.

Hibberd  is a good in  that will steady the back line. 

Jetta a bit stiff thought Smith would get axed. Hibberd is a good in can't complain about that.

Hurley back in.... guh that is not ideal for our shaky talls.

Wasnt Redman taken with one of the picks we gave up for Melky? He’s looks a decent player.

hibbo had 3 kicked on him by walters and everyone was saying hes not small enough for the slippery little blokes then nev had 3 kicked on him by daniel last week who basically hadnt kicked a goal all season until then and now tippa is gonna run riot pretty much unopposed. u should be more worried

I wouild have Jackson and Sparrow in the side with ANB and Brown out.

Would have liked Smith out instead of Jetta, I think we need 1 more smaller defender in this side

Smith can play small

That's the folly of selection.

One week we dissect a team like Saints and GWS within an inch of their life and have excellent results and look organised and committed to a plan

Then it appears as though no planning has been done in at all and recognition of Swans Freo and Bombers different lists and smalls. PS Remember Daniels and Bombers smalls 18 mths ago on the MCG!  Twenty (20) goals !!!

Jetta was not the one to play it's Lockhart to mind Tippa.!!!

I would've left Spargo out ... quit while we're ahead

Otherwise happy with just the one change, Nev looked spent

How could Nev be fit enough or fast enough for this challenge ???

Simple reason people are asking why Lockhart   Isn’t playing is we don’t have a small lockdown defender! 

if tipinwoodi kicks 3-4 

walters vs Freo unmarked for easy goals

    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.
