    Smith not good enough out MAY in

    T Mac in

    Kossie out Jones in

    Melksham stays

     

     

    Agree on Melksham.  He's shown enough since back and a proven goalkicker.

    All of that post-hoc world salad could equally be used to describe a sling tackle the likes of which would see an ANB or similar being handed a 4 week holiday.

    Hawkins laid his tackle from behind, driving the player forwards with his hands pinned to his sides so he could not protect impact of his head with the ground. Hawkins made ZERO attempt to lessen the impact. As is his modus operandi, he showed f-all duty of care to the opposition player.

    If the Dogs win on Friday night, we are locked in for first or second. And if the pre finals bye is scrapped, I would be willing to rest some of our big names for the following week.

    Hibberd was not fanatastic today but I didn't see anything wrong with his game.

    If TMac is to come in could it be Melksham out or is it Jordon.

    May for Smith and Viney for Sparrow are almost certainties.

    Hibberd fell over so often I thought he looked weird when standing up.

    To me, He looked off the pace badly.

    Goodwin in his presser confirmed that May, TMac an Viney will play. He also mentioned Jones playing well in the Casey game ? Significance.

    In: May TMac Viney  Jones 

    Out: Melksham Sparrow Smith Jordon.

    Hang on Chook. He also said Weid played well kicking 4 or 5. Take what he says with a grain of salt.

    Not Jones, rather leave Smith in or bring in Weed as back up

    Just put Brayshaw in the middle for a bit - he's a natural midfielder, and I know he's been doing a great job defensively on that wing, but I reckon he'd be better in the middle than Harmes/Sparrow combined. Who goes on the wing? Harmes? Viney?

    I think we rate that wing role as super important to our game plan. I can't see us experimenting after finally locking down two functional wings.

    Hibbo is the best replacement for Hunt we have. He has loads of experience. Good pace. Can do good lockdown roles when required. He is certainly the best option until Hunt is back.

    Without Hunt, Hibberd is the only one that doesn’t go right back in that shell that we all came out of, when the game is tight and we ain’t doing much.

    Reminded me of Jordan Lewis in his final year. Constantly going to ground and falling over

    Added to that Lynch had 29 possies, the second highest of all players on the ground.

    I hope we pick Lynch up next year. No way he fails to play AFL in 2022.

    I think it's a tough one. 

    It's similar but nowhere near as brutal as this which received 1 week in 2018:

    Natanui dumps Amon

    What should Hawkins have done? He's running at full speed then has to lay a tackle. There was no second motion.

    I'd be furious if one of our players was suspended for that.

    Hibberd was ok. But agree needs to stand up more in the contest. 

     

    Kossie needs a rest in my opinion 

    Maybe Jones for Kossie  Looks off the pace to me

    If Hawkins got rubbed out for that then the AFL is a joke nothing in it pure football accident.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.
