Crumbed well, distributed well and set up a few goals. Will be playing finals on today’s effort, take it to the bank!

Spargo was great! No chance he misses.

Off to the G... first game after a motorcycle accident put me on my backside.. hoping the pain is worth it today- go Dees!!

Wagner, Bugg, Pederson added to the squad.. no change

I have nothing further to add..

Always good to argue a free kick that will have no bearing on the outcome

Could also be a Geelong MCG final.. need a supporters watering hole catch up!

I think Wagner comes in for Hibberd this week. No risks to be taken with Hibberd as he is key to finals for us. Viney to replace Spargo as defensive forward in 2 weeks if he is ready for finals. Last week Goody used Oliver and Trac as rotating forwards, so Viney adds to this mix. Minimal changes as our best 22 should be set now.

After he said it, he also mentioned that we can go all the way. He just made the point that we need to keep focus. Lloyd also had a good opinion of us, but was happy for us to unite and celebrate together

Essendon trades were poor for the first half of the year, but they blossomed the last few rounds. Essendon would have done damage in finals and the recruits would have led the charge.

Sorry, not real sure about your point on Scully as he chose to leave.. Getting in quality players is about either trading picks or quality players. Hoping we don’t have any high draft picks any time soon

I’ve been a big advocate for the trade.. not because I do not believe in his ability, but more about his current value. I think we have some real needs which could be filled by what Jesses currency allows. No disrespect to Jesse, but I like our side without him in it- playing a more mobile forward line like Richmond. This is just an opinion, and how I believe the game is going to continue to be played for some time. Jesses biggest challenge is not getting the ball. It is the speed in which he turns to deliver to a target. He often turns, waits and waves hand signals before he kicks it in. For me, he could learn a lot from Melksham.

Would just love a MCG final.. who we play is just about the narrative ?

Gee I love this club!!

I think Vanders gets 1 week and Hibberd gets a 2 week rest. Wagner in for Hibbo, no idea who comes in for Vanders, not Garlett by the sounds of the VFL report.

I never cried but gee I felt embarrassed about my behaviour the last 2 weeks. Including what I’ve posted on demonland.. talk about an over the top sook!!!

West Coast by 24 points, Dees gallant in defeat with Goodwin talking along about the narrative in the press conference. While the football world hopes we just miss out again after a loss next week.

Always been a Pedo fan, but looks off the pace. Worried it might be the end of him at AFL level

This will be the making of another great Melbourne forward. Unleash the Weid!!

Blokes with slower lower eyes.. whatever that means..

I think he and TMAC are too similar. We could get some serious quality in return is the reason people are looking at options to move him.

If one of Hibberd or Melksham had played, this website would be stagnant

It had improved, but was so obvious on the weekend. He is frail. I vote move him on

The biggest issue I see is our zone. We allow space for teams to either cut us up or play keeping off.

Our problem is, we need things to go our way. A fit list, players in form, an opponent who is not at full strength. Our systems are strong enough to cope with adversity. If we fluke finals, we will be smashed week 1. Not a finals ready group.
