Out -  May, Melksham. Jetta

In -  Petty, Bedford, Hibberd

 

Sparrow, Jordon, Jones, Spargo could easily be dropped too.

Edited by Pickett2Jackson

May is potential out so maybe hibbo or petty in for him

otherwise keep the team as is

    How did Brown go yesterday?

    Otherwise Petty for May seems likely.

    May would have to be very doubtful under concussion protocols.

    I also wonder whether they reckon this game is when BBB gets a run

    It's a winning team so -     Interesting times!

     

     

    Out: May, Melksham, Jetta

    Hey mate, we won and we’re 4-0. It’s not a dream, I know it’s hard to believe. There’s no way there was 6 droppable players.

    Out: May

    Spargo was great. A 200IQ footballer.

    Broken eye socket, Uncle Bitters. He’s definitely gone for a few weeks.

    Think we may go small next week -

    Out: May, Jordon
    In: Hibberd, Sparrow (as a starter)

    Doubt Melk gets dropped but understand the calls for him to go

    Sparrow only played 17% less game time than Jordon, somehow.

    Out - may jordon 

    In - petty brown 

    jordon a bit stiff after a solid first 3 games but was barely sighted today, if brown isn’t ready then jordon stays, melksham seemed to attend a fair few centre bounces which pushed jordon out.

     

    tmac to play as the lead up chf which suits him and brown and fritsch to play deeper.

    Jackson floating between ruck and forward and Gawn to float behind the ball and help out the backline with Mays absence

    Yes, what happened to Jordon today? Unsighted, but he only played 56% game time. Injured?

    I'm sure some people just look at the stats sheet when this thread comes each week.

    The pressure that the likes of Spargo, Jordon, Sparrow, etc put on the oppostion is the difference between last year and this year.

    Why would you change that? Continuity is a good thing.

    Out: May, Jetta, Jordan (rest)

    In: Petty, Brown, Hibberd

    Sparrow stays sub.

    "Melksham to Brown...?!" sounds like the cry of an overwrought commentator. Sweet. 

    May and Nev out. Petty and Hibbo in.

    May out 
    sideshow in

    move Tmac back.

     

    Melksham buh-bye. In: Sparrow

    May (if inj) out - Petty in.

    Jordon looked a tad quiet - if tired maybe rotate him out for Chandler?

    Spargo's not going anywhere, he's been fantastic this year.

    Absolutely a brainy player. Sets up opportunities and tackles like a  trojan. I expect him to play all year. Beautiful foil for kossie.

    They used Jordon on a wing against Blicavs after Gus went down back, but ended up preferring Jones and then had a full midfield rotation with Sparrow.

    Melksham wasn’t good but I still think until Brown or Weid come in we need a proper forward more than extra mids.

    I think it will be 2 out of 3 of Melk, Sparrow and Jordon with the 3rd the sub.

    Petty or Hibberd depending on conditions and opponents to replace May. 

     

    Doubt this will happen but would like Melky out, Sparrow in.

    May to be replaced by Petty or Hibbo depending on matchups.

    • 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.
