Petracca, Oliver, Viney... cliff.

That's our midfield depth.

Doesn't matter who we bring in for Oliver (if required), they will be substandard.

A legacy of Goodwin riding the same players into the ground year after year and not developing our other mids.

Dunstan can get the pill but not sure about ball use and speed - evidently, Goody recruited him to play for Casey anyway.

Hope Clarry pulls up ok.

I'm watching Tom Mitchell for Collingwood being a completely different player.

They were bad last year in clearences and went and brought Mitchell in to fix this.

Poor Luke Dunstan who's a clearence specialist gets 42 disposal and 2 goals in a VFL game and Goody still refuses to play him because he's happy sticking with the same soliders each week who continue to get beaten around the stoppages.

Extremely tough break if Ralph is correct. Someone needs to step up now and time to dig in deep Demons. 
 


The fact is no one will replace Oliver, and we have cover. The club may need to rethink our midfield set up. Sparrow, JJ, Harmes, Kozy (more time in the midfield may give him some form), Rivers, Brayshaw, Salem, ANB, Chandler, Dunstan etc etc can go through the midfield.

I like the idea of a tagging midfield with our flankers/wingers providing the drive. Back to the early season form with those with good skills kicking and running through the opposition in to a forward line that leads to the ball carrier. 
 

Stop the continuous long kick down the line including kick ins. 

 

I mean who am I to be dramatic or negative, but I feel like I’m just going to come out and say it. 
We are cooked. 


Next month will be a shambles and a window into the next few years unless Goodwin wakes the [censored] up and recruits another top mid in trade period.

There are 16 players who have plenty of room to lift 25-90% each!

And even if they lift by 845% they still won’t reach Clarry’s level of talent, skills or importance to our side. 

Injuries happen. He is so durable and he will weeks in the middle of a season. The best time if we are to be a contender.

Also, can we just go and hunt the footy?

Love the ‘COULD’ aspect to this.

 

If right “you heard it hear first” 
 

NFI as yet…..

Why couldn’t this happen during our stretch of playing cellar dwellers? Why now?

"Could be sidelined for up to a month" says Ralph.

Let's wait for something a bit more definitive from the club.  It might not be the catastrophe some are fearing.

Yep classic click bait. No doubt he's getting scans but this reads like a complete guess by Johnny boy.


Why the f did he get the green light to go back out there in Q4?

Own goal by us if it's significant

It sounds like we've already gotten the scans back.

Why didn’t we ‘manage’ our best players during that period?

More rhetorical questions…

Why did he even go back on? I would rather risk Bowey blowing a calf, than Oliver getting a grazed pinky. 

Just reported it on 9 news as well

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

    The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

    Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

    Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

    For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
