Who replaces Petty that seriously makes us better?

My answer is no one so he needs to stay where he is.

Then he needs to go down back and Turner needs to stay up fwd.

Bring Jeffo in and lets have a good look at him.

How are we going to cover the end of May and TMac careers?

I think he can still be a May replacement down back. With Disco and hopefully an in form Lever.

Disco and van Rooyen.

The sad thing is that Petty has been our best key forward this year. Trained all pre season as a defender and probably wants to play back there.

Turner, JVR, Jefferson, Fritch have all Under performed more than Petty as a forward this year.

 

I think we need to make the switch, send him to defence and he only goes forward as a switch. But he should be a defender first always. Disco on the other hand I think should be forward first and defender second.

On what metrics? I find it phenomenal that you can say Petty has been our best key forward this year - even acknowledging that in the current crop that threshold would be relatively low.

Petty is soft, he has no presence as a forward.

He is getting games in the forward line based on kicking 4 goals against Richmond 3 years ago.

Done nothing since.

I never want to see him up forward again and the only thing that saves him is he is ok down back, so leave him back and make Turner a permanent forward FFS

Petty loves a ‘pre’ goal celebration.

Takes a mark, happy with himself, high fives teammates, then misses a sitter.

Just kick the goal, then celebrate Harrison.

For reference, Brian Taylor is his heyday, very funny.

Except the 4 he kicked against Freo in round 6

 

Petty has flashes but he's still a natural defender.

Disco is playing well down back but he also looked really good up forward. I think we need to bite the bullet and send Petty back, Disco forward with JVR.

Twice in three years, superstar!

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
