We all love to hate Godfrey but on his recent form (2 weeks) where he has shut down and out of sorts Adam Goodses and Shaun Burgoyne is it fair o say he is no more an poor excuse of a tagger or a genuine player stopper?

 

Is it reasonable to judge anyone based on two weeks, particularly when they've been around for ~8 years? :P

 

I think he should play on Brad Johnson

Yeah, Godders has shown some hustle over the last 2 weeks. Credit to him. If batram were playing in the side as a tagger, would Godders still be given a chance?

Bartram is a stopper also. Both do good jobs. I think godders is playing for his spot at the club this season. And so far he is doing well.

As for being in our best 22 as our number one stop player- we will have to wait and see.

Bartram for me.


I think he should play on Brad Johnson

I think he should be given the chance to stop West & reduce him to under 20 possessions. West has been on fire again this year.

tagging west isnt as effective as it sounds

he gets plenty of the ball, but his numbers overpower his power over the game

see he gets severly overrated by the media, due to fact they see his numbers, where as he hasnt won or really got close to a brownlow because the umpires dont see his numbers, and he isnt noticed as much

junior would be the better tagging option, because he will be down the bottom of the packs as well, godders will be better on cooney or griffen, to stop his clearance take aways and forward thrusts

what?? not close to a brownlow? most votes of any current player not to win the award, 4th in 04 and 05, 3rd 98, 2nd in 06 and 2nd in 2000, where really he won given woey got 2 brownlow votes but no b and f votes. 7 best and fairests, 5 all australians.

statistics don't mean everything, but i love watching west play, and you can't say he hasn't come close to a brownlow

  • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
