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.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      The Casey Demons faced a tough first up task taking on reigning VFL premiers Footscray at Mission Whitten Oval. The Bulldogs, who unfurled their premiership flag pre-game, had 15 AFL-listed players and their top VFL talent available, setting them up for their 15th consecutive win.

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.
