According to today's HUN Byron Pickett missed training with the flu yesterday - Bizzell, Brown go, but Pickett unclear. Chris Fagan rackons "[H]e will be right to play on Sunday" but is still uncertain about his future.

The flu that's going around at the moment doesn't go away overnight. We could be in real troble picking a side if he doesn't come up right for the game.

    So why did they keep him away from training... He should have been there coughing all over his team mates in preparation for the W/E. :lol:

    I reckon Brown deserves another year over a whole heap of others.

    He's been very useful over the second half of the year.

    Perhaps a certain red-head defender should be joining the farewell.

    The football industry has been quarantined. There will be no AFL games in Melbourne this weekend, and the spring finals carnival is in doubt.

    agreed but i cant see him being as good in 12 months time. I do agree tho that there are others infront of him. Channel 9 reported that Brown and Biz have announced their retirement last night. Dont know how accurate that info is as it was from the words of Michael Usher...the man that cant stop smiling haha

    You make me want to spew, you and all your Ward bashing mates. When and if he retires you'll be the first ones on here to tell everyone what a great servant he was to the club,and how couragous he was. Your'e nothing but front runners. It'll be interesting to see who you jump on next season. :angry:

    you'd want to have some credability for people to take these sort of comments seriously.

    so, what's your claim to fame?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • 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

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      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.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • 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.
