That's a pretty strong side on paper. 

Feeling more confident than most that we can give it a shake this year.

Billings disposal is still a worry - 2 unforced clangers today.

Haven’t watched the 2nd half yet, but did a couple nice things in the first. Seems to at least look a lot more comfortable out there compared to last year.

That’s good 23, although on today’s form, Howes might not be there.

He got better the longer the game went and does stick to his task.

But mostly the 2 main competitors for his job got injured today (plus McVee is already out).

hard to argue with the make-up of the team but for opening bounce - and it's purely semantics - i don't think viney and petracca will be starting on the pine, nor windsor

very interested to see how we mix up that running half-back and defensive wingman role in 2025 - windsor, salem, bowey, lindsay, and woey 2.0 all look more than capable of waxing and waning in the position

Edited by whatwhat say what

 

I read where Sestan was impressive off half back in the two’s. Is he a chance for a run next week to take AMW’s spot? I’d certainly like to see him given a shot.

Interested you have Billing’s ahead of Langdon on wing. I know it’s only semantics. Are you thinking Billing’s for a good season

no, i'm thinking #postivelingers to rotate straight into the midfield

i don't think he'll play much wing this year; more half forward / rover

If he is playing in our side in any capacity I’m of some concern to be honest. Does some nice things but too many errors come with it. With 8-9 players who *will* come back into our side surely he would be pushed to the end of the emergency list.

Still think it lacks a tall. When JVR goes into the ruck our forward line is fairly uncompetitive. 
 

One of Johnson or Jeffo will have a spot in Round 1 imo. (Or Tmac back and Petty forward)

Billings? No.


AMW would have played as he is an excellent tackler and good on the very quick crafty small forward. Not sure we have a replacement.
 

Bowey is a poor tackler and Salem too slow. Kynan Brown has pace and DNA, but not been playing in that role. With McVee out and GWS with elite small forwards, it’s a glaring issue.

Can Sestan take the McVee spot?

Not sure. I’ve not seen enough of him live in the back half. He certainly has the disposal, but AMW and McVee are defend first, attacking backman.
Rivers obviously can, but he appears to be too valuable in the midfield now.

how did he play in the later game today anyone know?

CHANDLER DID NOTHING! massively overated unit! Howes not yet up to it, Laurie still not up to it !

My thoughts as well.

It’s a a bad round 1 opponent to face given their plethora of quality small forwards (Greene, Daniels, Jones) and we’re already two accountable small defenders down.

I reckon Brown could potentially play the McVee role but it’s probably too late in the piece to up-skill him down back.

Chandler should and likely will play round 1.

Creates a good outlet from wing to inside 50 and has tremendous goal sense. Without Kozzie we’re, down a small forward and we’re going to have to find 13-15 goals to beat GWS and Chandler’s proven that he can snag 2-3 at the G when on song.

I agree with you that Howes and Laurie provide no point of difference as players.

Woey could do it.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
