Good ins I reckon.

Pickett, Windsor and Spargo are all probably in our top five kicks and Turner player a blinder in the VFL.

Happy 100th to Spargs as well!

If only Captain Parmenter were in the side.

Four changes, so we can add Sergeant O’Rouke, Corporal Agarn and Chief Wild Eagle too.

Um give me Wrangler Jane....Anyday of the week!


Fritta very lucky - last chance to impact the scoreboard or back to the magoos (if Goody has any selection integrity)

What a gutless team selection, same old players get dropped

MAKE A STATEMENT GOODWIN

How can Fritsch still be getting a game, he was terrible last year and absolutely woeful in the 3 games so far this year, his body language is infecting the whole team.

The poor buggers confidence is shot and would probably really benefit with some pressure off at Casey.

Billings, Howes & Johnson will be back in in a couple of weeks along with Woey, where as Laurie will continue good form at Casey & never get a look in other than a sub. Why in Gods name was he given a 3 year contract & then not given a chance!!

spelling

Goodwin once upon a time wouldn't play Fritsch as a forward even though we were screaming for it. Now we can't get him to get Fritsch out of the forward line even though he isn't even Coldstream seconds level at the moment.

 

There's been plenty of bigger upsets than us winning this but my jaw will dislocate in shock if it happens.

Laurie should be in for Spargo. Just don’t understand why players get a free run at playing seniors with little footy behind them. Laurie deserves a solid run at it.


Laurie must be wondering what he has to do to get a game but Henderson and Sharp walk into the team and aren't playing very well

We look a lot better on paper.

Good changes overall, Billing Howes, AJ have been poor and deserve to be dropped

Pace, skill and youth come in

Add Lever, McVee, Kolt and Lindsay and drop the likes of Sharp, Hendo and we start to look pretty good

I agree he has been down on form and has put in some poor efforts. But he kicked 41.23 in a poor team last year, so that is not terrible

He finally started to get involved last week with 15 touches and 8 scoring involvements so to drop him would be not the best move for the team. Clearly guys like AJ were worse

I agree on Laurie though

Excuse my ignorance but am i correcting in thinking Spargo is replacing Billings?

Different positions, different kinds of players. It would be Laurie for Sparrow, and doubt that’s happening anytime soon.

True but I reckon Laurie could play at HF or small fwd or even wing. He bring better skills than Sharp

Sparrow has been one of our few decent players this year so agree he won't be dropped

Oliver on the pine. Surprising. I would have thought Petracca or Viney before him

Wait do people think that these announced team lineup positions are actually the definite positions they start at on the day/night? Its just slapped together really. I doubt Sparrow starts on a wing either...

Looks like Fritta has called Goody's bluff, he still getting a game in the seniors. A reason we are playing so badly is that the players have lost respect for the coach. Perhaps our CEO should put Goody on notice in the media.

Melbourne to win by 24 pts ( in an alternative world) .Kangaroos to win by 23 pts.


I’m driving down to Kitty-litter Park tomorrow with a couple of Geelong supporting mates. Banking on a win so I don’t have to hear their dribble on the way back.

Spargo, Melksham and Salem. All we need is Lever to return and Goody will have all his favourites back together.

Yeah, but I think Melksham is a good favourite. I expect him to lead the forward line with his verbal messages. Hope he finds form too.

Agree, will be good to get Lever back and all our senior players out there

People expecting Fritsch to get dropped are booonana's

This week they are anyway. Needs to kick at least 3 to stay.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
