Would be sorely tempted to put Windsor on as a tactical sub. And with a license to move up and down the corridor.

    What the hell does Tholstrup bring to this team? Not even VFL standard.

    That's why these games are important.

    We play every youngster and discover who to keep.

    Anyone defending our coaches needs their heads examined.

    We are clueless with ball in hand and when the opposition has the ball. Our skills are deplorable and we make terrible decisions.

    Incapable of kicking to team mates advantage. Can't stick a tackle

    There is absolutely zero to hang our hat on. There is simply no phase of the game where we play acceptable football.

    We have a lot of overpaid players that should not be collecting a pay check

    North paying $5.20 at half time. Looks juicy

    Jefferson definitely crashing the packs. Competing well.

    Petraccas disposal is absolutely woeful.

    Didn't see Melksham go off? Is it serious?

    Did I hear the commentary correctly that Chocco is the kick Dr.

    Good Lord .

    Should be sued for malpractice.

    I am ready to admit that I do not understand what Goodwin is trying to do to set us up for success in 2026.

    I do enjoy Langford and X playing more midfield. But otherwise I don’t know what the game plan is.

    I wish they’d give Chin more game time on the wing.

    Langford is contact shy. Can't play in the middle and had a pass because it's its his 1st year but he learning bad habits avoiding contact

    They haven’t really clarified the extent of the injury yet. Just mentioned he’s trying to get feeling back in his arm.

    Looks like a shoulder.

    We are cooked without him.

    Agreed I’m happy with Jeffo’s attack on the contest. It’s all you can ask for in game 5.

    Well I never thought a bloke from the Goonies would be drafted, but there he was today on Kossie, punching away behind the play, chopping, kicking in danger and scragging know where near the play.

    Which brings me to maggots. What a disgusting bunch today. Three incidents today of high hits not paid. Two kicking in danger. One deliberate trip. Nothing paid.

    And they feel insulted by being called maggots.

    1st half

    👍🏻Dees best Langford & Viney

    👍🏻Jeffo and JVR contesting is good versus average Roos defenders

    Kozzzy got hot for 3 minutes then went missing (did he get a knock ??)

    A few contributions from others but not of any real substance

    💔Goodwin allowing Mckercher to run free

    💔Poor? Kolt, Lever, McVee & 😭Turner

    Ahead but uninspiring. McVee is a worry. Rivers only 5 disposals. A lot of poor contributors

    Stating the obvious CF, but we're a team that no longer matches the sum of it's parts. My concern with Christian is that I no longer (or rarely) see him trying to bring his teammates into the game. Would like to see him being a little more team orientated. That may be harsh.

    They're playing up at stoppage but not at CBAs. The challenge for me isnt the kids not playing through the middle The issue is Petracca, Oliver and Viney are also there.

    On a positive note Langford is a jet and Jefferson is showing a bit even though not suited to a second tall role.

    • 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.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      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.
