Petty was poor last week but Jeffo was far worse last time he played.

4 touches. clangers

Jeffo needs to earn it for a couple more more weeks at casey.

Petty has been ok at times. contested marks. 11 goals and frustrating defenders. No way Jeffo can play that role yet

He did break his hand early in the first quarter.

    Not pining, just want some common sense to prevail, but common sense selection based on FORM and the coach /footy dept dont match! WHILE im at it Brown Dog and Woey are in the same boat. We simply MUST reward guys that are playing well consistently in the magoos, but we dont

    Agree with Lever out, he’s not fit & has had a terribly injury interrupted season, Tmac should never have been dropped

    If the coach has even the slightest bit of selection integrity Petty should be dropped!

    Finally Laurie needs some extended time in the seniors & not as sub, he deserves a chance, he has been treated very poorly

    Wow - both big calls and ones that I back 100%

    I love Lever but he was brought back in way too quickly and has clearly been hampered by his injuries - McDonald should never have been dropped to make way for him

    Windsor has also struggled this year due to injuries (and being played out of position in my opinion) - reckon getting him playing on the wing at VFL could do his confidence a world of good

    Julian DeStoop on SEN said JVR was also dropped (along with Windsor and Lever). Anyone else heard that?

    Haven’t heard it but @Ghostwriter confirmed that they were essentially told this at training today (thanks for the scoop 👻)

    Wow, that's a big call on Lever and Windsor, especially given Rivers was the most likely out after being subbed out against Port.

    Sounds like Rivers will be sent back to defence in place of Windsor.

    I assume T.Mac is back in for Lever and Jeffo in for JVR with Tholstrup in as likely sub - Lindsay back starting.

    I especially liked hearing that Goody intimated that Viney may play forward - been calling for that for some time as he actually is a very accurate shot at goal - he just can't hit up targets with ease.

    Goody showing the guts to make tough calls where it matters.

    Key defenders with 0 mobility, who can't get close to a ground ball are a massive liability.

    Fast, agile, athletic defenders are where it's at.

    Excellent call by Goodwin and Co.

    Finally some selection integrity.

    Dropping an inform T Mac after the club's best win since the 2021 grand final for an injury riddled veteran off a singular VFL return game was anything but integrity.

    Way too late for selection integrity.

    Its been a major issue for several years.

    Dropping Fritsch 12 months too late cost us big time

    Lever wasn't right when he came back.

    Windsor has 2nd year blues & JVR is going through a bad run. However it could have given him an opportunity to play on a Rowell or Anderson or even touk just to give him an insight on some great players

    But fritsch still holds his spot. Mind youu his defensive pressure is a little bit better.

    FWIW worth Petty was slotting them from everywhere at training today. I'd be very surprised if he doesn't play forward

    Windsor gets played out of position all year and then dropped. If I was him I’d tell Goodwin either play me in the right positions or fukken trade me.

    Agree. Windsor was incredible in his first year, they move him elsewhere and his performance suffers. Coaching issue imo.

    There's not even anyone exciting to replace him either. What are we going to see, Billings? Laurie? Henderson? zzz, none of them are the future.

    He did the same with Fritsch, played him half back and all he did was ruin a whole season. It’s moronic.

    While I agree that Windsor has been played out of position, I think his disposal has fallen off over the last month and it looks like he's struggling to run out games (hence the sub selection a couple of weeks ago).

    I think a few weeks at Casey will be good for him.

    Lever on the other hand should never have been recalled over TMac. Hopefully the latter gets his chance back on the seniors this weekend.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
