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.

    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!!

    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.

    • 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?

      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.
