    Thanks W

    Just a few points i would like to add pls...

    While he is probably best 22 we don't know how long Melk will be out, nor if he'll decide to continue by the time he does return.  Most likely he will but 11 months is a long time in footy.  Especially at this point in his career.

    So i would think McAdam replaces Melk there at least until he returns.  There is no McAdam regardless.  Is that not a done deal?

    Deakyn Smith delisted assuming that's the Smith you're referring for Casey in the BP.

    Hibberd & Dunstan retired.

    Moose has moved on.

    Grundy a maybe but highly unilkely i would have thought given the smoke.

    Jordon and Harmes need an asterisk also yes?

    That's the best 44 for the year the next installment won't have D.Smith, Hibberd, Dunstan and anybody else who leaves during trade week.

    Love to see Bowey move onto a wing, he has a good footy brain and is very good by foot.  No idea on his tank.

    I'd start Billings in the 2's regardless of how well he goes in the preseason. One of the Saints fans youtube things i watched said he got 50 possesions when they dropped him. He has the talent make him earn a spot.

    Surprised to see that Billings isn't rated higher than Chandler on here 

     

    My best 23

    B - Lever, May, McVee

    C - Brayshaw, Oliver, Langdon

    HF - Petracca, van Rooyen, McAdam

    F - Fritsch, Petty, Billings

    FOLL - Gawn, Viney, Pickett

    INT - Hunter, Sparrow, Neal-Bullen, Woewodin

    23rd - Chandler/Fullerton

    If we go with Petty and JVR as KPFs for MFC with Fritsch and McAdam in support then we're going to have a massive logjam of tall forwards at Casey assuming early season fitness: TMac, BBB, Smith, Schache, Fullarton, Jefferson, KFW - assuming Verrall leads the Casey ruck.

    I'd be playing at least one back.

    Put a line through TMac, BBB   

    Fullerton will be first in line for a call up if one of Gawn, Petty, van Rooyen go down

    Jefferson may play a different role due to the forward depth we have at both levels

    Verrall will be 2nd ruck to Fullerton imo

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
