Petty ahead of Brown and Jefferson? Every day of the week.

Everyday...  EVERYDAY ?? 

Tbh honest atm Petty is all over the shop..  brilliant one game....did he even turn up....turned it up on other occasions.   Personally,  and cue the wolves/ jackals/ meerkats.... I think overall he's quite 'average'.   Some will roll out excuses but you wander over that white line you've called yourself as good to go...  and often he isn't.   I get we're bereft of that real KPF..   Roo is good...but he's young....in 3 to 4 ...could be really something.    He Roo  does offer  a chop out to Max... so hes not the real KPF... Goody seems compelled /stuck with Petty.   

Id give Jeffo a crack...   i dont see him as any worse... and might surprise  ( might not )

If Petty...its by reluctant default....and yeah....thats why you pick players eh

Go Dees

    Freo have gotten the better of us the last two times, but I'd like to know why, aside from Freo being up and about for an MCG challenge,

    In 2022 May went off with concussion at quarter time which threw our structure out the door as Rory Lobb of all people got the better of us.

    In 2023 we went small and and forced Lever to play tall against the likes of Amiss, Tracey and Jackson and it backfired as per usual when we've gone in with a small defence.

    Other than that, can anyone think what they've had over us from a tactical point of view.

    Not tactics - just the ‘L’ word - or intensity of training volume and density. 👊🥩💥

    Great interview, Goodie looks very relaxed which is pleasing. I'm very happy he's our coach!

    That first one in 22 was a really out of character Freo performance where they came out in the second half and kept the ball moving like free flowing water. They got some good fortune with it and with May out the damage was tenfold. 

    Not expecting this to happen for sure but the message from me would be don't be slow to react if it does.

    Felt some minor discomfort in his adductor at training today according to Richo. They expect JvR to be available next week.

    May and Petty were both out in that game. We were very unlucky that night.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • 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.

      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?
