Personally I don't feel the need for endless 4-6 weeks and have no problem with short/long term. 

And as for ALL players being forced to see the media.- I hate that.    Imagine how that could affect a bloke going through some personal probems etc - getting asked all sorts of slimy questions so some self-styed journalist can big note themselves.

Overreaction Sue. Players can handle the questions with skill and it makes all players much more valuable and approachable to learn how to cope with the media.  Very few situations that you have quoted and shares the learning of basic skills as growth for individuals.

    Bowey will be a loss. 
     

    TMCD AND BBB  - can they contribute??

    Fullerton and Pickett back v dogs 

    Petty in v hawks 

    mcadam target for round 4. 
     

    depth is now not a big asset.  We get very skinny with youngsters.

    You'd be right except for the fact that who knows which players are in those 'very few'.  It's one thing to expect players to be available, it's another to make it complusory.

    I suppose 4 weeks is better than 4-6

    That is where is starts.

    Ouch. McAdam looked good in training sessions. We need Petty, Pickett and McAdam into our forward structure.  Fritsch and JVR (still very raw) cannot be the only target goalkickers.  We got blanks from Schache, Chandler, Spargo and ANB.

    Chandler needs to show some of that great footy he played early in the season last year. He's got the talent but something's off kilter.

    Does anyone know the deal with Joel Smith?  The AFL seems to have no clue as usual. Can he play or not.

    No doubt the AFL are making it up on the run - it is their way.

    It’s important to remember that the injury that interrupted the last few weeks of pre-season was a toe injury in his other foot to the one he injured last year.
     

    His injured foot has been good to go for a while now and has held up throughout the rehab period for his more recent toe injury.

    I'll leave it at, he's unavailable for the foreseeable future.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
