What happened with Petty? I wasn't watching when he went off.

In doubt for next week?

    I wouldn't be dropping Taylor. All the better for the experience. Maybe just the one change for Petty

    Petty concussion

    The weather next Friday night looks excellent.

    Hope there is solid debate as to the pros and cons of playing Heath. I'm not sure

    No one at Casey putting up their hand but you could make a case for Kentfield in place of Jefferson but perhaps Jeffo deserves a run to show us what he has.

    TMac in place of Petty is a given

    5 tackles, grew into the game. Hopefully he’s given another shot to build on this

    I wouldn't be upset with this either.

    Dont drop Taylor.

    He didnt do anything wrong and simply played his role. Anyone expecting him to show out today against one of the best forwards in the competition have far too high of unrealistic expectations on him.

    Agree. I thought he did well without standing out.

    I presume Petty will miss (concussion?) in which case TMac should come back in

    otherwise, no change

    Lindsay can work his way back through the 2s and catch some form.

    Laurie should get rewarded for being a steady cog in a winning team, did not do much wrong today.

    Gawn can get a rest by splitting his TOG% with Heath to closer to 50/50

    Heath had only 27% game time. Is it worth carrying a second ruck for that little game time?

    Suspect he was a one week rental as Brisbane has historically targeted Max

    Your all insane 3 inclusions after that game after the reserves got flogged. McDonald was terrible as was Petty I 'd drop him anyway even if he didn't have concussion. Heath out and Taylor out you have to be joking.

    IN: Lindsay

    Out: Petty

    B: Howes, Lever, Tholstrup

    HB: Lindsay, Turner, Langdon

    C: Langford, Sparrow, Windsor

    HF: Chandler, van Rooyen, Sharp

    F: Fritsch, Mihocek, L.Pickett

    FOLL: Gawn, Steele, K.Pickett

    IC: Taylor, Culley, Jefferson, Laurie, Heath

    EMERG: Henderson, Jiath, Kentfield

    The split was 28, 53, 17, 14. I suspect he was set to play 40% until the game was winnable and they decided to ride Max in the final quarter especially.

    I’d rather play another runner and keep Fritsch and Jeffo closer to goal. But it depends on how Max is feeling on the short back up.

    • NON-MFC: Round 7

      Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

      The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
