I disagree that he was poor v Swans in difficult slippery conditions. From memory he kicked three out of not many

We need to try something else. Play him at CHB in the twos . It worked with both G Lyon and Neitz. They both returned as much better forwards

A few of us discussing the turnaround on Friday night and trying to remember a better one by MFC. have a look at R8 of 2017 v Adelaide at Adelaide. 28 points down half way through Q2 , then we kicked the next 9 goals against the top team who lead the comp all year before losing in GF. Ended up winning easily. Goodwin moved Tom McD forward for the first time ever I think and he kicked goals. But the unexpected spark came from Tomas Bugg! And Pedersen rucked most of the night with some help from Jack Watts . And a gorgeous part of the video is a v loud ho ho ho from a Dees supporter whenever we goaled .

Crumbs! If Weid had played as well as Hipwood we would have won by 10 goals . If I hear “ Weideman nearly” after yet another dropped mark I will scream

This guy kicks beautifully . May just need the much harder work he will be obliged to undertake, to become a pretty good player

One bad mistake. The goal to English just before half time, only occurred because, first, Petty was blocked, and then Gawn was . Quite obviously really!

Yet another brilliantly planned coaching performance. Time to extend his contract

Surprised that it hasn’t been mentioned that 2020 was our best recruiting in living memory and we are now reaping the benefits . When has a team landed five guns , Jackson, Kosi, Rivers, Langdon and Tomlinson in one recruitment. ? And Goodwin must have been heavily involved in those decisions

Well I wish u would look at Q4. Harmes was vital. He played the Viney role, hard at it . Tracc was completely blanketed, Jordon buggered after his super first half . Clary was wonderful but without Harmes I think we might have lost

U must be joking. Sure he buggered up a few times but overall, he was terrific. Have a look at his last quarter

Weather forecast for Saturday night is not good. I would hate to see Brown and Weideman trying to deal with wet slippery conditions. Tom McD is surprisingly ok if it is slippery . So I would leave him in attack and give Petty another shot in defence . Size wise he meets the requirement of a replacement for Tomlinson , and I suspect that with a couple of games he will gain confidence and become a valuable player

I have never seen a player who looks less like a wingman!

Some of u guys are stark raving mad!!, our best win since 2018, we’ve lost one key player and u want to drop other blokes- fortunately it just won’t happen !!!

I think you may have overlooked Earl Spaulding and Warren Dean in 1986 ( first played in 87) Well to contradict myself, in 1953 I believe we recruited Ken Melville ,Laurie Mithen , Bob and Trevor Johnson , Don Williams and perhaps Ian Ridley and Bluey Adams. but in those days the club offered recruits immediate entry into MCC membership and that was enough for many ! With the complexities of the draft I can’t believe how well we did in 2020, or, strictly, 2019

Jackson, Kosi, Rivers, Langdon, Tomlinson. In 2020 can anyone recall a better recruitment in one year ?

Geelong will remember how Tom McD played in the first Final v the Cats in 2018

Gawn langdon Viney kosi hunt Salem

Agree. He still blunders when least expected

Give him a break. Good in R 1,ok in R2. Many entries came in flat and hard .Still, I agree, he wasn’t good and he will know it

Lever? Made a heap of errors/ blunders

Of for heavens’ sake!!!! Even though he no longer plays for Dees he still can’t do anything impressive in your eyes

Dazzle, they recruited Lever who is terrific if he doesn’t have an opponent. In his great year at Adelaide they played a seven man backline .Just listen to Mick Malthouse on that topic

Again , watch the two finals !!!! anyway, he is gone, forget about him , let’s get across the line on Saturday

If his second goal was not under pressure , I’ve never seen one

Dazzle, watch the two finals we played at the MCG in 2018 and tell me that Oscar is the useless crud you described . Tall, can kick , intelligent. You don’t let such blokes go
