WERRIDEE

OK the 3 rookies I would take are Neitschke (demoted), Brown, Bradtke (rookie B to rookie A). The 37 listed players would be May, Salem, Harmes, Petracca, Jackson, Viney, Lever, Spargo, Brayshaw, Gawn, Bedford, Oliver, Hibberd, Langdon, Melksham, Hannan, Tomlinson, vandenBerg, Jordon, Rivers, Weideman, Hunt, Neal-Bullen, Fritsch, Sparrow, Baker, Hore, Petty, Pickett, Jetta, Lockhart, Smith 3 draft picks 2 trades\FA. Delist Jones, Kolodjashnij (has to retire can't afford to carry a player with his mental concerns), Bennell (rookie), O.McDonald, Chandler (rookie), C.Wagner (rookie), J.Wagner, Dunkley (rookie) Trade Preuss, T.McDonald

Will we ever get good use of our academy ? Is that just a dream?

How many of them will be rookies?

Ye of little faith we have him in Weideman. People talking about Daniher, Cameron, McKay, Hogan and Brown he had a better year than all of them. Next year will be his break year with a little help from Jackson, Petty and Brown.

I don't see the need to cut rookies unless the AFL cut the list. It's a compromised weak draft so you would expect a weak rookie draft. I'd keep Chandler and Dunkley for one more year. If their was a year to keep most of your list intact this would be the year.

TOP 5 POSITIVES: BURGESS: Hardly any injuries compare that to Misson and it's chalk and cheese. LANGDON: Recruit of the year was awesome on the wing we need another one like him maybe Baker is the answer should promise in the last 2 games or another recruit. MAY: After the shocker he had last year he stood up and become what we thought he could be the best full back in the comp. PETRACCA: Stepped up to the plate when added to the midfield. All Australian beckons. GAWN: A captain that hits form is something that hasn't happened at Melbourne for some time but it finally happened with Gawn should be All Australian again and is undeniably the best ruckman in the league. TOP 5 NEGATIVES: GOODWIN: Selection debacle not playing Weideman and Brown earlier. Having quarters where we just wouldn't show up. Losses to bottom teams in Sydney and Freo good teams don't do that. HARMES: Goodwin ruined him by playing him half back and ended up in the reserves. BRAYSHAW: We didn't see the best of Brayshaw due to lack of opportunity and confidence. Butchered the ball on occasions and didn't give us a whole lot of flexibility. MELKSHAM: Too many games where he had little impact expected more from him. TOM.MCDONALD: Nowhere near his 2018 form and seemed hampered for most of the year so much so he was dropped on several occasions to where Brown was the much preferred option.

Where's Norm's gif? Hell no useless he is the main reason North are so bad. Witherden, Saad, Williams, Philips and Stephenson excite me the rest of the players who have been mentioned don't.

I don't think we need to change the backline Tomlinson at CHB has been good I've been happy with him maybe Hore in for Smith that would be it we need a wingman and small forward and maybe a tall forward if Petty can't get out on the park.

Petty was training with the forwards before he done his groin so I expect him to be a forward.

Delist the Wagner's and Bennell after his stupidity.

I would let Jacko take the ruck and bring in Brown as the 3rd tall with Weid and Petty.

Weid will be alright he missed Jackson giving him a chop out. Preuss is only a ruckman that is all.

Philips for Tom.McDonald.

BEST TEAM B: HORE, MAY, LEVER HB: SALEM, TOMLINSON, HIBBERD C : LANGDON, PETRACCA, BAKER HF: MELKSHAM, JACKSON, FRITSCH F: PICKETT, WEIDEMAN, PETTY FOLL: GAWN, OLIVER, VINEY IC: BRAYSHAW, RIVERS, HUNT, VANDENBERG THE REST B: LOCKHART, SMITH, JETTA HB: KOLODJASHNIJ (ROOKIE), DRAFT PICK, NEITSCHKE (ROOKIE) C : DRAFT PICK, DRAFT PICK, HARMES HF: HANNAN, BROWN(ROOKIE), NEAL-BULLEN F: BEDFORD, DRAFT PICK, SPARGO FOLL: BRADTKE (ROOKIE), SPARROW, JORDON IC: CHANDLER (ROOKIE), DUNKLEY (ROOKIE), DRAFT PICK, DRAFT PICK DELISTED : JONES, BENNELL (ROOKIE), O.MCDONALD, C.WAGNER (ROOKIE), J.WAGNER TRADE: PREUSS, T.MCDONALD Hunt and Brown have saved their asses the last couple of weeks. We must go for either Saad or Williams and draft for similar players.

Stuff Melbourne how they lost to Sydney beggers belief. It's gonna get harder with Freo, Sydney, Carlton and Gold Coast probably improving. We have to improve dramatically and that's just not with the players we currently have but we have to trade and draft aggressively skill and speed.

I thought he wasn't suppose to drink he was not allowed. Poor form.

[censored] lucky if he doesn't get sacked

If Saad is rated as an All Australian then why isn't Salem been just as good.

Don't worry the Dockers have it in the bag 10 Hogan 5 Tabener and 3 Lobb. IN: JACKSON, HARMES OUT: SPARGO, SMITH

The Weid will be alright struggling a bit ATM but at least he is bringing it to ground. Will be better with Jackson in the side.

6 GAWN 5 PETRACCA 4 SALEM 3 OLIVER 2 HUNT 1 FRITSCH

Rivers wins it for us again. WHAT A PLAYER! I spilled my coke when Sheil kicked that goal. Usual Melbourne made the easy hard. Fritsch and Hunt played well. Salem, Oliver, Petracca and Gawn excellent.

ThIS CLUB KILLS ME

Poor quarter too defensive need to kick goals.

[censored] off Picket he's a gun.
