    Melksham, Viney, Petty in.

    You could make a case for half a dozen to be dropped, mainly from the forward line, but hard to see Jefferson staying. For the rest ...

    Either fritsch or van rooyen to be dropped. Disgraceful we couldn't get a goal between them.

    Sorry but Oliver needs to be dropped. Provided nothing today.

    Jefferson definitely dropped.


    Either something is not right with May or he’s a shadow of his former self and I query giving him an extra year in 2026

    Plugger Mac is by some margin the best tall defender

    wouldn’t drop or sub him

    Partly all of the above, but you only get AA May when Lever is in the side.

    Suspect that the recruiting team are already working overtime desperately trying to find us a key forward. Or a key back, so Turner/Petty can stay forward.

    In: Petty, Viney, Melksham, Laurie

    Out: Jefferson, Fritsch, Oliver, Tholstrup

    I'm not a huge wrap for Sharp but at least he is fit and will give repeat efforts. Tholstrup doesn't look quite ready and not sure why we rushed him in off injury.

    Doubt Oliver gets dropped but was a liability today with some of his efforts.

    Give jeffo at least a month in the VFL to find and consolidate form.

    Reward Laurie for being one of Casey's best consistently, even if only as sub.

    Time to manage May and Gawn. Melksham is not the future. Unless there is a gameplan reason time to try someone else.

    Foward line solution... Like the coach I have no idea

    May is getting a bit long in the tooth but he was fine today TBH. Bigger problems than his form.

    Jefferson put in a stinker after a puzzling selection to begin with. I want him to succeed but I can’t see it after that. That was almost papers stamped-level bad.

    Can’t have Fritsch playing that badly and keep his spot. JVR is a worry but I think he can contribute as second ruck again.

    In. Viney, Melksham, Petty

    Out. Jefferson, Fritsch and Spargo/Sharp/Tholstrup

    Can see us putting up a good show at the Gabba and still losing by 40+.

    I’d go a triple change of key forwards:

    JVR, Fritsch, Jeffo all out. AJ, Melk, Petty in.

    Don’t think either Sharp or Kolt are up for it right now.

    Maybe Kynan Brown as sub.

    Now confirmed by Goody post match that Viney entered protocols on Thursday and won't play against Brisbane next week.

    100 percent agree. He looks confused out there. Slow to kick it in. Loses his opponent all the time.

    Just trying to understand how you would even have this as a consideration… Lindsay is already so important & so good. Strange one Nicko

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      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.
