Great to see Kynan selected. He has been very good in his 1st season of VFL.  Quick and evasive and reads the play well. He sets up play, has goal involvements and kicks a few himself.

IMO eventually his ability to read the play will see him excel as a mid. 

As a forward if the oppo take their eye off him they will pay.

His form this year surprised me. I thought a couple more preseasons would get him right for the big time but if you have what it takes then you get rewarded.

 

"He has been very good in his 1st season of VFL'. That is a massive stretch. He has shown minor glimpses at best.

    I hadn't seen the photo's until this morning, i understand where you were coming from now.

    They do look happy and relaxed, i will give you that.

    Whether their attitude gets translated on the field as will to win   Or 

    I really don’t care.   Or I am high as kite right now.

     
    i have no idea but  a relaxed trio at training, no tension, means they will not be thinking of outside detractors rather than ball, and kick the blooody goal. 

    I will watch with interest !

    GW and Robbo on AFL 360 also mentioned the massive fall out that would occur if we lose to North.

    But in reality, what's actually going to change? They're certainly not going to sack Goodwin and/or the assistant coaches if that's what the media are inferring in terms of "fall out"

    Ok so not enormous but not tiny. What are the early indications of his role @ VFL watchers

    Kynan is a bits and pieces player.  Maybe small but shows heart.  Nothing of note in his VFL games so unsure why he gets promoted.  Marketing?  Hope he has a good game.

    Please let’s see Sestan, Tholstrup and Fullarton.

    Surely Petty has to be omitted on form.

    Turner, Billings, Laurie don’t look up to it.

    Chandler, Sparrow, Oliver and Fritsch have unsatisfactory and should be dropped even just to make a statement but the cupboards bare so they’ll stay in.

     

    sooo he wouldn’t be ahead of others as a defence first? Seems like a strange call to me

    I presume you’re talking about Petty.

    Prior to this season I rated him in the best defenders going around. 
    On current form he doesn’t deserve to be in the side, IMO.

    Tomlinson, Brown, Tholstrup in

    Petracca, Billings, Laurie out

    I still want Woey in the side but can’t really complain about K Brown and Tholstrup getting chances over Laurie and Billings.

    I think this’ll be it. Won’t see Fullarton, AMW or Sestan until they start appearing in the emergencies first - club usually signals who’s next in line 

    Disco as the sub??

    This is actually it (see above).

    Fullarton an emergency.

    Petty named again at CHF? Worst player in the competition & Goodwin drops Tomlinson last week then bring him back again? Why?

    Tholstrup a most deserved elevation after his last match at Casey. Performance actually matches ‘some’ of the messianic hyperbole being spouted about, since his arrival by worshippers of a paranormal kolt.

    Goodwin’s explained Tomlinson - Collingwood had a small forward line so we decided to go smaller in our backline.

    It's not all about form. It's about knowing team structure and role, the rest takes care of itself.

    I wonder what players working hard at Casey think of Petty constantly getting games with zero output.

    Would imagine it’s a bit demoralising

    • 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 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.
