Ramifications of Goodwin not playing players, that IMO deserved a better go. Disappointed to see him go, Goody can’t keep playing favourites 

Well he is apparently giving an extra year to two favourites.

    A bit of a positive conspiracy theory...

    - Toby wants more opporunity
    - Rumours about Kozzy and Port
    - Toby lives with Kozzy
    - Toby has requested a trade

    🤔

    I thought Kozzie lived with Rivers and Jacko.

    Yeah more of a comment in jest as they are some what of a like for like

    I like Chandler but I’d like to get Henry from Freo if there’s any possibility to be included in the Jackson trade

    Seeing ANB come 8th in the B&F this year, would be enough to make anyone competing for his position want to depart. 
     

    Yep

    Staggering we even offered him a 3 year deal when you consider someone like ANB is highly rated by Goody??? Whose spot do they project Bedford to even take!

    I thought it was Koz, Toby and Dogga in a house together?

    Just remembered reading that it might actually be Trac, Toby and Kozzy as of last year?

    id much prefer Henry,  i just think Hill looks lazy and not up to the level.  and who knows that could be because he hasnt been happy in syd.

    Henry hasn't made the level yet either but is that year younger.   But was a pick 9 and a WA boy, can't see them letting him go

    No idea, but found this from late last year:

    "Pickett lives in a Melbourne house with Petracca, Toby Bedford and Charlie Spargo."

    Tbh I haven’t seen a lot of Hill but who knows what could happen with a change of scenery, chances are he goes to Collingwood and dominates similarly to Stengle (albeit very different situations)

    Same with Henry, hasn’t shown a massive amount at Freo but if he’s exploring his options I think we’d be silly not to at least put the feelers out

    But an absolute waste from an MFC perspective. Develop him up for a few years, to then not give him a decent opportunity when he is ready for AFL is a real head scratcher for me. 
     

    Totally agree, but think of the upside we gained.    :-  ANB was able to rack up more of those all important and valuable ‘Pressure Act’ ranking points.

    If I had to pick one of Bedford and Chandler to keep, I'd be keeping Bedford.

    However, I don't think either of them have been that good so far. I don't think we under-played him, as I don't think his form ever really warranted more games. So if GWS have convinced him he's going to get more games up there, so be it. All the best to him.

    Based on the VFL grand final, Chandler has the desire and consistency to make it at AFL level. Better all round player, whereas Bedford had moments of brilliance. We have that in Kozzy, so it makes sense to go with Chandler. If Kozzy leaves, that’s a disaster

    I liked Bedford, he should do well at GWS and hope he nails this opportunity,

    It’s a disappointing result for mine, but one I completely understand. You can’t continue to not reward players. He’s certainly good enough to play senior footy and yet we gave him a 7 week run as a sub with 10 active minutes on the field. 
    Deserves better.

    I would rather keep him than Melksham for another year, but I understand these aren’t really the choices we make.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
