IN: Tholstrup
OUT: Sparrow

Give Petty another week....

    • Like 3

    So Brown played really well but seems to still only have a half of good footy in him. No idea how he will pull up for next week.

    Judging by the public comments, Goodwin seems to think that Petty will find more form playing in the AFL than the twos. But from the people who went to the Casey game it seems like he's not going to be kicking bags for a few weeks.

    How did Fullerton look yesterday? 

    Second tall forward/ruck still seems the week link but I reckon Brown deserves some congrats for his game today.

     

    No change unless there’s an injury/niggle that needs managing before two games on the road in Adelaide

    6 day break. Not sure how Brown will pull up

    Petty or Fullarton in for Brown if needed

    otherwise no change. reward the team. Sparrow was down but he deserves the chance to make up for it

    I wouldn't mind see what Tholstrup can do. Perhaps a straight swap with Woey. Other than that no change. Give Petty another week to find his feet in the twos.

    I'll second getting Tholstrup in. Good match do bring him in.

    Sicily is out suspended. Huge loss for the Hawks. IMG_2127.jpeg

    Sicily got a week for kicking out when he was targeted early. That is very soft. 

    Expect it to be overturned at appeal

    massive loss for the hawks . sicily can't seem to stay out of trouble for long no matter how many articles they write about him shedding his bad boy behaviour and becoming captain .

    can't imagine we'll wield too many, if any, changes but I too wouldn't mind seeing the Kolt unleashed on the G .

    out Sparrow.

    In Petty,

    Tholstrup sub

    Don't drop Sparrow. He will come good.

    I don't think any changes but Petty in is tempting. Play Brown for 1 more week and then bring petty in for Adelaide games.

    We simply should not consider dropping Sparrow. Didn't have the greatest of games this week but you don't through the baby out with the bathwater. Also don't drink bathwater

    i really hope we never 'debut' a player as a sub

    hate it when teams do that

    Obvious from training reports that BBB has a light program.

    If we can get him up for next week that would be great

    I see the weather is dry and 23/24 which is not too bad

    No way is Sparrow getting dropped. I’ll back him in to find some form over the next couple of games.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
