Out: M Brown, N.Jones 

IN: B Brown Weid 

 

Weid to play CHF up the ground. TMac on the wing for the release mark. BB for the leading forward from the square 

 

Although i reckon were a chance against the Tiger save Jones 300 for the Roos. (that's how to sell it to him that he misses next week)

 

Also need to make room for Bedford he was great. Too good for VFL. Not sure who's spot he takes though

Jonesy hasn’t made it easy for selectors unfortunately. However, there is no way he will be dropped imo.

Unfair on Bedford and Chandler who have been great all preseason and dominated for Casey today.

Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

This season gets better by the minute

In -          May,  Fritsch,  Weideman,  B Brown,  Bedford

Out  -       Petty,    M Brown,  Jones,   ANB,  Melksham

 

Melk only turned up in the last 10 mins.

Otger tgan a goal in tge first was not sighted.

Must make way for Weid.

And maybe briwn for brown Im afraid.

Not sure if Petty stays.

 

 

Edited by leave it to deever

OUT

Petty - good 2nd half after an atrocious 1st

M. Brown - Unlucky, tried but didn't influence the game til the last quarter

Sparrow - Melksham drops to the sub

IN

May for Petty

Fritsch for M. Brown

Weid for Melksham

B. Brown unlucky miss.


Weid and Bedford played well. Thought BBB needs another VFL run

go dees

No way Melksham gets dropped, even when he's at his best he's been like that - kind of invisible but then by the end of the match he's managed 2 or 3 goals and had a hand in a few others. A couple of those kicks across the body to find targets were sublime.

If Fritsch and May are ready, they both have to come in. Jones would be the obvious out but not happening, at least for this week.

Surely Tom Brown is mistaken - just said Fristch & May available for next week?

I get it, and as I said, it’s a pity Jones didn’t make it an easy decision. He’s been serviceable so far this year, but today was absolutely sub standard. But I still don’t think they will drop him.

Do we think jones would get dropped for his 300th that would be a ruthless call 


It was a 50 point win, so as few changes as possible.

Weid for M Brown

May for Petty

Fritsch for Melksham.

These 3 are only out of the side because of injury so should come straight back in. 

In: Weideman, Bedford.

 

Out: M Brown Jordan

 

If Fit: May for Petty and Fritch for Melksham.

 

It's a good problem to have.

This is a real conundrum !

Jones has been a wonderful servant of the club and deserves the honour of 300 games. I love the guy.

However, he was ordinary today and exposed for pace in both leg speed and disposal. If we were playing Norf next week there is no question he would retain his spot ....................... but against the best performed team of the last several years ??????????????

Anyone thinking Melksham should be dropped is clearly not considering his 9 score involvements, not to mention 3 goals.

Thats role playing perfectly

So much for 'a few more weeks'

Good so we can stop the nonsense now. Goodwin has said Jones will play next week so lets celebrate it. 

 

This week

Weed in

Brown out 

Next week -sideshow Bob in for Melky and dependent on recovery - May for Petty. when Fritta ready probably Jones makes way. At some point JJ and sparrow may get rested -although this can get done by medical sub now.

We have to play Jones as it is a landmark we havent had except for Neiter.

But 2 of Spargs, Jordon and AnB need to be considered for a rest.That is if May and Fritsch are available. Hib showed his worth immediately but the Melk will be there for 3 more weeks unfortunately.   We have shown that we always give players a group of 3 or 4 games when back in the team, but BBB needs a red carpet for his 1st block of games, he is only going to get better. The Weid just hasnt strung a few games together so if we brought him back, we are committing to 4 games for him. Id like him to prove his spot by another bag in the VFL. Brereton said that if we were a really hungry team we should be ready to chop players more readily.

  • 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.
