Rosman concussion? Looked like the bump didn’t get him high

Didn't appear that way but came off with a blood nose. Must have had some high contact that wasnt obvious on the coverage.

    I’d be comfortable with Tomlinson back in. Turner could be one pre season away from exploding as well. He’s looked great all year at VFL. 
     

    Geez that forward line does sound refreshing!

    I'd had Turner ahead of Tomlinson. Most of the damaging AFL key forwards are either mobile (Curnow, Cameron, Naughton, Hipwood, Daniher, Riewoldt, McKay) or beasts {Lynch, Hawkins). Tomlinson is a straight ahead player with poor agility. I don't see him as an AFL defender any more.

    its a joke we played Hunt ahead of Bowey

    Hunt earnt his spot. Rivers and Salem were poor in both finals.

    Looked a medial for Tom. 

    I think we simply can't plan around TMAC being available next year. If we can't find a KPF, then we find another mobile KPD and play Petty forward.

    I see what you’re saying. But I think you’re writing Tomlinson off too soon. It’s his first year back from an ACL.

    He’s bounced back on to the ground.

    I’d say ideally McDonald and JVR could be good for 22 between them if not both of them.

    Definitely would love a Brown/Jackson replacement in addition to the 2 bigs.

    Wakefield has been awesome. So exciting. Has a bit of Fritta about him. 
     

    Mitch Brown is an amazing VFL player. I think we should delist him but Casey should sign him up. He looks like he can play 10 more years at this level.

    Weids been huge today and capping off his afternoon with two contested grabs and a goal. Ruck/forward will be his way back into the team going forward .

    Just means you're not developing a forward.

    He's not a tall so he's not much good for training small forwards.

    Winning is nice but it's not really the main reason why we have a VFL team

    And as some pointed out last week the VFL salary cap is so low he could make more money playing in the suburban league

    I expect JVR will play much less VFL next year and the prospect of Weideman is well, not the best. 
    There is plenty of space to develop another tall both forward and in the ruck.

    A brilliant performance. The tackling and hardness at the ball a real stand out. 
    Casey doing us proud after last night’s very disappointing effort.

    Weird has shown plenty the last couple of games as a ruck forward.

    Be interested to see him played in that role for the pre season and into next. Just might be his future role at AFL level.

    Couldn’t play him, Tmac and Brown in the same forward line but you could play him Tmac and JVR who has a lot more mobility and much better below his knees

    The ruckwork of T Mac and JVR when up forward has me thinking that Max plays 85% game time as a pure ruckman, and T Mac and JVR could share the other 15%. Ditch the idea of playing Max up forward. 

    I've liked how Weid has developed as a ruckman, but he's not good enough as an AFL forward.

    That’s kind of how I imagined last night panning out.

    JVR is so cute. Spoke like a true first year player. Get him a girlfriend ASAP so he doesn’t contemplate doing a Jackson!

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
