Bizarre that the clear match of the round is on at 1pm on Sunday

Max Gawn barring injury will get his 6th AA in 7 years (only missing 2017 due to injury) Played only 166 games. Premiership captain (hopefully more than once) 2 x BnFs Coaches award 2018 2022 Averages: 21 disposals, 1.0 gaols, 27 hitouts, 6 marks Certainly a once in a lifetime player, especially considering his cultural and personal impact he has had on the group

The West Coast situation is getting blown out of proportion. Their primary issue is injuries. 8 players are out with covid but some of them are on the injury list so the impact of covid on WC this week is similar to the demons last week

Marshall and Ryder might give Gawn and Jackson a work out

1. Goodwin. By a long way 2. Daniher 3. Roos that is all

T Mac deserves to play over Weed based on last week. Plus our 2nd ruck is back bedford will be stiff as to miss but I think he will great to see Laurie get rewarded for his good form. Won’t play but hopefully not long til we see him

oh right, thought he was OOC this year. my bad

SNAP!

Amazing speech by Pert, great transparent leadership all round. I am blown away by this club right now! I am sure Clarry will follow his coach's lead and sign on soon

Can we stop any talk of succession plans please?? Goodwin has just started his 7th year as head coach, won a flag in his 6th year and has this club unbelievably well set up for more success. Succession plans usually end in failure aside from, well basically unless Paul Roos is involved. Simon's dedicated, humble, selfless leadership style has permeated the club and the playing group and I am forever grateful.

I reckon Goody not holding out for a longer contract shows how confident he is now. We have the best coach in the league and other teams are trying to copy us. Goody after a couple of shaky seasons seems extremely comfortable in the role. 7-0 after winning a drought breaking flag is a sensational effort

This is unbelievable Viney is the toughest bloke on the ground Dogs just not up to it WE WON THE FLAG!!!

Half back thanks

Watching the GF for the first time in months. I’ve dead set got a tear in my eye. Honestly still can’t believe we did it. maybe I won’t believe it until I see it at the G

Still somehow underrated. Absolutely critical to our team and success. Critical to our culture and toughness also. most players wouldn’t have even considered playing in the GF. He backed his body and knew he could do it

The MRO are a laughing stock again given Lewis Young a week. Tribunal just cleared him. MRO must want netball? collisions happen. [censored]

There are many reasons - train in Melbourne, build up supporters, more people can go to training, connect with the city of melbourne, players don't have to drive 2 hours to get to training. would be great to have our 2nds play in melbourne too so more people can go to games, plus the AFLW team has a chance to get some more people to go to the games and build a supporter base

all the news has been positive so far sorry

Anything that moves us from Casey back to Melbourne should be considered imo

Good to see Zac Jones back playing after his 'personal issues' Jones and Billings could both be back which make a big difference to their midfield

Over priced average player? Obviously Carlton are the club

We’ve been embuggered? starting to sound a little sinister now!

Mate, It’s our first arvo day game. We’ve had night games and a twilight. What time slots do you want? I can’t wait for a day game. Bringing the boy along

T Mac should definitely retain his spot. I supported the decision to drop him but he played well as Casey, showed the right attitude and took his chances on Saturday. If Jackson is fit, he will take Weed's spot. Bit harsh on Weed but he is 4th in pecking order currently. It is great to have this competition for spots though, keeps T Mac and others on their toes

So who is coming on Sunday? I just arranged to go to the game with my mum. I will do something with the kids/wife that morning. Finally an afternoon game, should be cracking clash too with the Saints fast attacking play
