Hes been shown up by 5 goal Weideman but he looks ready to go against Richmond.

Weids is getting his eye in. Great 50m set shot

I just might have misread the Weed's slow development based upon the reports of today.

Seems to be moving well. Took a defensive mark right next to Box Hill's behind post before and then contested an inside 50 at our end about 30 seconds later.

Think he's got 2 goals so far

Linking up, playing round the ground.


Assuming all available, no injuries.. etc, how do we fit May, Fritsch, B.Brown, Weid & Bedford in the side?

Out: Petty, M.Brown, TMac (?), Melksham, Jones (?)

?

Seniors have to repeat this performance first.

It's a different class as well. Jetta looks like he's in a training run.

Brown has played up and down the ground and having a really good hit out. Also kicked three goals so far and looks in great nick.

At the g right now so can’t watch it but have taped it promising reports on Bedford Brown Weideman and dsmith how is bowey going 


I'm only watching on TV, but I could see them only bringing in Wiedeman next week. Ben Brown moves awkwardly at the best of times, but he still looks a little bit off. Wiedeman is moving like a Ferrari or a Jaguar, while Brown's moving a bit like a ute with a trailer on it.

I haven’t noticed Bowey after 1/2 time.  Did some nice things earlier. Gutsy little fella. Not frightened to have a go. Kicked in from full back too.

Bowey has been quiet.  About the only quiet Casey player.

OMG Toby Bedford moves well. AFL bound.

Always has moved beautifully.
Seems to be a player who needs to believe he belongs at AFL level.
Some take longer than others - hopefully soon!

Good to see BB is still getting the calls his way

Linkage play for BB today, so far; all over the ground sounds very much like he is using the game to beef up his fitness/readiness in the big time. No static forward, at all. Great sign...reverse the deck of cards - he'll be feeding the smalls in the team in future.

Most of us agree that Weid is a 'confidence player'.  His confidence should be 'sky high' after today.  1 + 1 = 2.  Looks like he's senior bound!

Nek minnut, Brown crumbs off the ground, 360 spin and shot on goal! Only spoiled by being slightly offline.

In all seriousness, I think he has an awkward look at the best of time. He, Weid & Bedford all look ready imo.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
