PREGAME: Rd 20 vs St. Kilda

Must admit that playing Petty forward baffles me.

He's the obvious choice to replace May whose career is coming to an end.

We have five or six tall forwards of varying ability. Play them in this irrelevant season.

Laurie should also have got a bloc of games and resting/rotating Viney, Lagdon Langford etc. Bill might just click with the modern passing game but at least we would know.

Jefferson should have got another week at AFL level to show form.

Good luck to Oscar P in Belgium this weekend

    Thankyou.

    I'm afraid that Goody is as well.

    These picks suggest a man trying to salvage his job.

    Definitely time for him to go now.

    Jefferson wasn't great but it was I believe his best game in only a handful of seemingly trending upwards.

    And then we drop the poor kid.

    Way to install confidence.

    And after two years, Goody still can't accept that Petty isn't a fwd. What's that all about?

    Do we think the young players love Goody as much as the seniors? Simon probably doesn't instil much confidence in the young brigade.

    All players should be considered for senior selection given our season is cactus, it’s the perfect opportunity imo but won’t happen which is obvious with team selections each week.

    I feel for Jeffo, his games have been very average at best but it’s too early to say he won’t make it. He has his moments but seems to lack confidence

    As coach Goodwin should be trying to build his confidence rather than treating him like a yoyo. Poor kid probably doesn’t know if he is coming or going which would no doubt affect his game.

    Goodwin seems desperate again like he was after losing 5 in a row to start the season and if the coach is coming across like this it will be felt by the playing group.

    It’s time to move Goodwin on.

    Agree with your comments on MJ. He's usually clean with his hands and a good kick, so I put the dropped chest mark and set shot miskick down to nerves and not skill. I like that he's getting to more contests and having a crack. Keen to see the club stick with him. I think he's got more to gain by playing AFL than VFL at this stage.

    What about how he fails to keep his feet in contests, i.e. goes to ground?

    How many dropped chest mark scan we tolerate? He’s never dominated a reserves game the way AJ did last match( admittedly v weak opposition)

    I think its fair for Jeffo to go back to the VFL after an ordinary game which young players have. At least he knows what he has to do over the preseason.

    Who knows he may get another game this season.

    We’re playing St Kilda again when I’m still [censored] off after the round 12 effort against them. Gotta love the AFL draw

    I have a relative who works in strength and conditioning at an AFL team. He basically said you'd easily find 10-15 players who don't like the senior coach (hint, it's the ones not getting picked).

    I don't think you can. At least I couodn't when i tried to last year. The website is dead-set disgraceful on that front. Apparently people have had success calling the club and getting barcodes sent to them for entry as members. May be worth a try?

    Open MFC app

    Click on "mobile membership". On my app it is icon at the bottom of the page, and in the middle of the line.

    "Upcoming" opens, click on the game you want. "My tickets" comes up. Click on "view ticket".

    Barcode comes up.

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      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.
