Who have we got since Langdon that has been successful, I can’t recall any?

Agree wholeheartedly 'Red'

I am terrified of what the Pies will do to us on KB. I haven’t been able to watch them play since that terrible violent act by that thug against Gus.

I am in the unfortunate situation being married to a passionate Pies supporter who will expect me to either go to the game with him or watch it together on the TV.

Like you I can't even watch the filth on TV, let alone go to any of their matches.

AJ suspended. That’s two suspensions in, what, 5 games? I get that aggression is his thing, but if he can’t control it then it’s useless to us, and therefore so is he.

JVR replaces him. I don’t care that Jefferson kicked more goals in the VFL, JVR’s the better prospect and can take AJ’s ruck minutes.

Sharp to be dropped for Viney if fit. If Viney not fit, find someone else to take Sharp’s spot. Give Laurie at least one full game before we drop him (likely for the final time, tbh).

Lever needs to find form pretty soon. We can’t keep TMac in the VFL in the form he was in if Lever isn’t playing just as well.

Why play Laurie if we are going to drop him for the final time?? I've seen enough of him to know he won't make it!

I think it’s time that Windsor learns his backman trade at Casey , or he gets moved to the wing, because he has little idea how to play his current role. Personally I’d have him on the wing.

Time for Sestan to take over his role in the backline. He has consistently performed in the role at Casey and his kicking is exceptional - time to see what he’s made of.

I personally also think he won’t make it but it’s poor list management and leadership from the FD to never give him the chance to prove us wrong.

 

5-6 weeks ago TMac was leading a couple of defensive stats across the league. Can’t remember which ones as I’m not big on stats. Two weeks later he was dropped for Lever. Last week Disco was ranked the no.1 defender for the last five weeks. Regardless I’d play him forward as he can take a contested mark and is a reasonable set shot for goal.

I hope Melksham is ok.

AJ out for obvious reasons and he can't kick.

Laurie out. Not out best sub choice.

Lever out because that's two games now back with zero influence.

Ins..Jvr... some guy in the seconds and maybe a mate of mine down the street.

And maybe some goal kicking practice until their feet hurt.

Sounds OK 🧀🍷👍

People are going to freak out but we missed Spargo yesterday. Sharp is a sub and no more. May and Lever are at the end, yes May’s game got better after quarter time but he moves like an 80 year old. Smart by Ross to drag Windsor deep, I bet you even he didn’t think they’ll get 3 cheap goals out of it. That rushed kick for goal by Koz is really inexcusable for an AFL player. We weren’t set up and they went coast to coast with ease. I thought Marshall was excellent. If we’re loading then I find that ridiculous. AJ actually had a pretty good game but he’s going to get suspended again.

Honestly can’t see us getting within 6 goals of the Pies.

but really - just as long as Lever has spell at Casey

Lever was terrible at AFL level, TMac was terrible at VFL level. Wrong lever to pull.

Out: Johnson, Laurie, Sharp, Langford

In: TMac, Viney, Billings, Culley

Turner must play in the forward line, Windsor on the wing ffs

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
