Couldn't argue with any of that.

Kicking is an exact art. Salem's ball drop is flawless. He holds the ball all the way to the boot and it is inline with his head. None of this can be said for Petracca.. Huge drop, ball well out in front.

Yeah he was off for a while too. Just one of those patches where there are minimal breaks in play.

If we had lost it, a large portion of the blame would have to sit with OMAC.. He looks relieved.

Fair enough. Our best forwardline for mine, is when we go smaller. Hope that remains the case.

That is an interesting take.. Picking a forward line based on defenders. Not being smart, just never heard of that- thought forwards dictated defensive composition.

Certainly a very competent back up ruckman. Hoping he can become Pedo 2.0

Petty time!!

As good a tunnel ball throw after being done for holding the ball

Footy IQ is an underrated asset!!

Don’t know you, never met you, but like many Demonlanders have followed your story with interest. Truly very excited for you and hope this is the beginning of something special for you and Dec. God knows we need a good news story.. Am a little bit jealous- wish my brother was debuting today, but unfortunately- he is a spud ? Good luck mate, enjoy the game and the experience!!

Unusual changes.. but yet again Goodwin has not made a great deal of sense this year.. Only way this can work is if T-Mac goes forward, Fritch to the wing and Salem to Wing/HFF and Hunt and Wagner to go back. Would love to have another Salem. Everyone gives him wraps for his immaculate foot skills but he is a seriously underrated defender these days.

Would be lucky to retain his spot on last weeks game.

Melksham in the middle was okay.. the rest were average. Harmes to Martin would have been the 1-wood. He is clearly a man struggling without form players to make him look better than he is..

Only with reference, like most to our one dimensional midfield and lack of small forwards. Coaching panel has concerned me for some time.

Severely overrated list.. severely overstated leaders.. Severely underwhelming coach Severely incompetent coaching panel Severely restless membership base..

Not like our match committee to make sound decisions..

Huge yes from me

Yeah it was your classic MFC floater.. seriously our worst area in need of improvement. on another note, would love a Melbourne player this year to physical ruffle some opposition players feathers.. we look so polite this year..

I’d show the team a map of the MCG, highlight to the midfield the defensive end and explain to them they are not playing netball- there are no exclusion areas. In seriousness, I think it’s more a break for the coaches- so they can Google the 6-6-6 rule and see what it means.

I dreamed when Viney arrived, he would be a star of the comp. he is currently our 3rd or 4th best midfielder and has lost his explosive 5m pace. Just want to add more layers to the side with guys who have some currency

Yeah I’m not forcing them anymore, just hope to see them enjoy footy again. Pretty lost myself to be honest.

Not sure who we are into, but would like to see what we would get in return for Frost, OMac, Petracca, Garlett, Hunt, ANB and Viney. This year will define us and we need to be ruthless. We have severely overestimated our list.

I’ve lost 2 young kids who just can’t take the beltings and negative media. Hard being a kid at school in red and blue footy colours. Tried hard to convince them we are improving, but don’t believe it myself and am now warming to watching games of teams the kids support. Tough times

No word in Viney? In for scans today I believe
