Daw did not look fit or like he was saving something for after the game. Bedford is knocking on the door for 1st selection. Weids is a sure thing against Richmond. Brown needs another week. Jetta needs to wait and see how our backline in the ones goes to regain selection.

Thanks for all the reports. Great to have so many players pushing for senior selection but I hope we are cautious bringing them through. There has always been a big difference VFL to AFL but given the non-season last year for VFL, that gulf is bigger than ever.

He was very ordinary all day I thought. On form weid a must with bedford next in line. Brown/chandler also staked their claim but not sure how we could fit them in at the moment.

He did not dominate in any way,

and if he gets a game in the ones it would surprise me. 
 

does Casey nominate the days best 

I thought bowey, rosman, Bedford, Weid and brown and number 68. Gray ? 
Bradke and VdB and chandler and I apologise for others all better

Lockhart and Deakyn Smith were fantastic. Bowey found a good amount of the ball but was a tad sloppy. He will be a player though.

We have some nice replacements options coming through for the aging Hibbo and Jetta.

Thanks for the reports guys.

 

For those that watched it what positions did Weid and BBB play.  Did Weid play full forward (out of the goal square) or did they change it up.

TMac seems to be playing further up the ground so it probably makes sense if Weid play close to goal if he comes in.

Mainly BB playing the deeper role.

Weid got most from heavily contested positions.

Great games but remember the opposition played their best but many not in the same league.

That being said you couldn't ask much more of either of them.

Majak may become my favourite VFL player

The ladder after Round 1. This is the nature of the VFL in 2021. There are 22 teams and 16 rounds played. This won’t last.

Best result apart from the Demons would have to be Carlton losing at home by 1 point to Southport after leading all day.

I watch some of the game and I was more impressed with Deakyn Smith than Bowey.

He may be the small defender like Neville Jetta was 3 years ago.

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
