MONIZZ with the XX appellation.

Is that the footy equivalent to the Ford Falcon XB GT?

BIG MAX coming soon…

    I can see why Thommo is out of favour, has made some critical errors which should have resulted in goals. Shache out the back for a goal. MONIZ Wakey doing well as is a busy Brown dog,Petty has barely touched it. FULLARTON Good. Laurie goodish but IMV lacks a yard in pace

    Not good re Petty.

    Tommo could be feeling a little flat 

    Thanks for the update Picket.

    Good to hear AMW doing well. He's my favoured smoky. 

    Petty will take at least a month to regain fitness and touch, he's barely touched a ball in preseason.

    Fullarton we need

    Yea I think we've all been a bit short sighted and overly optimistic re Petty's return. Good call Roost it a long ways.

    Hi Picket, how did Sestan go please? And where would you place him in the pecking order at present, and into the future?

    Goody openly said he’ll be back for the Hawks so forgive anyone for taking what he says at face value. Maybe they shouldn’t after Clarry last year 😂

    DEES PLAYERS RUNDOWN

    Jed Adams was quieter than last practice game. He did a few good things but nothing of note.

    Kynan Brown never gives in. He was interested and involved throughout. I have high hopes for this kid.

    Kyah Farris-White - same as Jed Adams, but still learning the caper.

    Tom Fullarton had a good game. He was involved, took some marks, kicked a goal or two and was good value.

    Matthew Jefferson played back pocket (despite being recruited as a key forward) and I thought he was one of our better players. He ran around, was involved, used the ball well and created the lose man a la Jake Lever to perfection.

    Bailey Laurie was good and mostly involved but faded right out after a bout half way into the 3rd quarter. I query his lack of pace.

    Andy Moniz-Wakefield was our best player. He broke the lines, used the ball well and kicked two sensational goals coming off half back.

    Harrison Petty - if he had a kick I must have missed it. He looked way off the pace which is not surprising.

    Shackey Attacky kicked three but two of them were out the back to him by himself. He just doesn't impose himself enough at the contest.

    Adam Tomlinson played well but did look flat. Made some crucial errors which should have resulted in goals but didn’t. 

    That’s about it!

    AND NOW FOR THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY

    THE GOOD

    GREAT GAMES BY MONIZ WAKEFIELD AND TO A LESSER EXTENT MATHEW JEFFERSON AND BROWN DOG

    THE BAD

    GETTING DONE BY A JUST VFL SIDE IN COBURG 

    THE UGLY

    OUR NQR PLAYERS WHO I DON’T THINK HAVE ENOUGH TRICKS TO BE REGULAR AFL PLAYERS

    Could they be looking at him as coverage for Bowey???

    Thanks for the update Byron @picket fence

    The thought of the number 45 dashing off half back brings me great joy and reminiscent to the great Matthew Whelan who was our dashing half back back in the 2000's.

    He is not a dissimilar player Daz, but at this stage without the fear factor (fear of standing in his way and being steamrolled)!😁

    Report states AMW played across half back and kicked two goals. Normally plays forward?  

    Great game or a confused writer?

    Judging by the track watchers reports Petty would be best suited having another run out with Casey.

    Another couple weeks training under his belt before a return to AFL level.

    Hawthorn are a nuisance to play against after watching the Ess v Haw game today.

    Give Harry the correct amount of time to ease back into the fold i say.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
