    Surely the club appeals the JVR suspension. Was graded medium impact, McStay played out the game could argue it down to low impact surely?

    We can but I don’t think we will. A week for that is pretty right. It was definitely not a necessary action, and McStay had to go to the rooms for an assessment. 

    I’d give him a trophy if he did it to Cox tho. Wasn’t worth it on McStay, he’s a spud.

    Grundy is so inept as a forward, that I think bloody tomlinson would offer more playing there.

    This is a guy who played as a pure forward for Casey, looked so completely lost that they gave up at HT and played him ruck.

    He nerfs Gawn when he plays, which is an outcome we simply can't afford.

    Schache is not contested enough. So... either swing tomlinson or heck even Turner there, back in Spargo and a small forward line, just PLEASE don't play Grundy. Please.

    I hope David King is in the media this week saying how Melbourne should get 75% of the seats against Carlton because it's our home game 🤨

    Won't have to worry about Jack Martin. He's gonski

    So is Mckay ...likely

     

    McKay appears concussed so  (depending on Jesse Hogan’s mate, the Carlton doctors assessment) should miss next week.  
    Which may change out defensive set up

    Harmsey did his hammy this morning in the scratch match against Carlton reserves.

    While I don’t wish any player any injuries from us or the opposition they need to think outside the box and become inventive. Harmes while a good servant and loyal his style of football gas been surpassed.

    Watching Parker deep forward against Carlton, Trac plays deep on him.

    carlton not dealing with Sydney taking the game on or the slingshot 

    I haven’t seen enough of him, but could Disco play tall fwd roll to bring it to ground.

    The formula is so clear from these two finals:

    1. Attack from minute one, instead of when you're already multiple goals behind
    2. Kick goals instead of behinds (duh), i.e., score when you have momentum
    3. Nope just two.

    3. Have a forwardline with, wait for it, forwards

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.
