huge test for Neaves this week. Up against Gardnier and Rix, a chance to see what he is made of.

I agree 'kieranbj', sus' isn't it. Maybe PJ?

what the hell is newton doing on the half back flank, they better put him up forward and keep him their so he can kick a big bag

Does not seem like it's ever going to happen (bar accident). It's asking a lot of a 193cm youngster, used to playing as a specialist forward, to impress as a wingman or half-back flanker. Perhaps it's neither doing his chances much good. Might he not even be better off back in the twos? With Dutchy at CHB it must be the tallest HB line to ever hit the field in a VFL game.

I've added the reserves team to the post opening this thread. The player Newton named on the interchange is the brother of Michael Newton.

Newton would merely stagnate and rot in the 2s. He has shown that he clearly has way more talent than that grade. Unfortunately he can do all this without having to perform consistency. He is learning none of the disciplines required for senior football there.

i agree it would be nice to have him as FF. With Sautner at FF he is going to struggle to get a look in. So by playing him up in the midfield he gets to be in the play more regularly and be more focused with his game.

Was just about to ask about that. Is he any good (happy to wait a couple of days for the answer).

We've spoken much about this in the past, and had a number of disagreements.

At the start of the year they were playing Dunn and Juice out of the square, for all of about 90 seconds before Dunn got his face crushed by Bo Nixon. From what I remember either Sauntner was rested or injured. Would there be room for both Sauntner and Juice in there?

I actually like the move of Newton of the HBF, most kids that are drafted have dominated their way through the junior ranks, mainly playing in the positions they want to and doing what they want. We have read from many posters that this kid has got enormous potential and raw ability. From what I've seen at sandy he is also unaccountable and sometimes very lazy. A stint in the backline will hopefully teach him to be accountable for his man and work hard to ensure he beats his man. Playing up forward is a tough job, if the ball doesn't come your way you need to have that defensive side to help kepp the ball in sde your forward 50m and apply pressure on your defender so it isn't an easy clearance.

We already have an example of a FF that as a younger player for the MFC player down back. Now he holds the games and goals kicked record at the club.

im still surprised that Garland got a run with Melb before Juice did... in the absence of nietz and giving kids a shot you would have thought he would have been a chance... oh well... i might potter down to sandy today for a bit of a look

3/4 time Sandy 12 14 86 Scorpions 9 5 59

four goals to Newton

According to radio Daniel Ward - badly (?) torn right thigh

Ouch! :blink:

If Neita is not fit for next week, I hope they give Juice a run.

He is more developed and better equiped than Garland IMO. We really have nothing to lose.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
