Yeah for sure, definitely agree on that.

Just reckon he should be under the spotlight more than Weid.

BBB needs to lift or go back to Casey just like any other player. I'd rather JVR play if Brown continues his woeful form. Either way Weed plays as he is our only viable ruck/forward.

    I'm sure if he gets selected everyone on here supports him and hope he goes well. Players don't read these posts you do know.

    1/ wait and see.  Every team selection post has someone or more saying so and so shouldn’t be selected because they are a dud.

    2/ I believe that some do.  I think Disco posted prior to his debut thanking posters for their support.

    We have found a player in Disco. Looked very comfortable in his debut before being concussed.

    I thought that was a joke as in there is a poster named Turner who was pretending to be Disco (?)

     I don’t know if any players read these posts. What I do know is that some players’ family members do.

    Actually, I think he is wonderfully professional and driven, with single mindedness on the field and some leadership. Gives his all and I love that.

    And that's no bull.

    If that’s the case, then it’s fortunate that I haven’t said anything too bad about ANB for a couple of years. And more than thankful, for once, that I live in Sydney. (She scares me)

    Nah NC, that’s Fritta’s mum you’re thinking of. And living in Sydney ain’t gonna save you. After all, it was Tom McCartin who she wanted to “hunt down and kill” for punching “Bayles” in the ribs. And where do you think he lives?! 😆

    All I will say is she must be one really proud lady. Exceptional son. Can't describe how much I enjoy watching him go at.

    If Daw is injured or unavailable for selection, I imagine we will go with May in for Turner, Weed in for Gawn, and Tomlinson in as sub. This will keep our structure consistent with how it has been all year. Weed will play Jackson’s usual role of second ruck/resting forward like he did against the Hawks. 
     

    If Daw is selected I believe Weed will come in to replace Mitch Brown. Further, if Daw is suffering from mental health concerns right now, I’m really happy for the club to give him all the time and support he needs. The guy has literally stood at the precipice and stared down his own existence. The result of a game of sport pales into insignificance.

    So Stu … in you first scenario Mitch Brown survives? Seriously?

    Hopefully he'll be back into the side in a month he's already better than Tomlinson in the back and allows Petty to pinch hit in the forward line.

    Agree Mitch back to Casey where he must forever stay.

    Hard to see a player with poor physicality such as Weed will be any good in the ruck but there is no one else, assuming Daw is unavailable.

    Agreed, I would bring JvR in before holding onto M Brown in the team. He’s had some solid games over his time with us but his time is up.

    Weid has actually filled the second ruck role decently in the past, it’s not his preferred position but I feel like as a forward he almost tries to avoid contact, whereas as a ruckman he knows he has no choice and it seems to settle his issues about the physicality of it. 

    At the end of the day where we are at now is “decent” is the best we can get, we have injuries, last year we got a good run. We clearly have a very good best 22 but now we test the depth of the club, as well as the character of the players. Oliver, Trac, Viney etc will have to work a lot harder to win the clearances now and frankly I feel like they have been getting way too used to the armchair ride they’d had from Gawn.

    My guess would be Wed night Old Dee but really no idea either.

    So now we're thinking mental health concerns for Daw and not injury?

    If that is the case the club has kept him off the injury report to protect his privacy and give him space to get well.  The worst thing would be having it in the headlines or worse social media where really unsavoury people lurk and who knows what they might troll him about. 

    This last comment isn't about your post, more a general comment but it may be best if the reason he hasn't been on the injury list doesn't get much airplay on DL.

    On the bright side he was in the pics when Turner's debut was announced.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
