WERRIDEE

I'd keep Harmes but Hunt can go not good enough. Weid I don't see anyone taking his contract so I think we are stuck with him. He's finished as a forward but could be a handy 3rd ruck.

Firstly I have to say sorry the powers that be never want me to see a premiership live. Thank god for covid our only way to win a flag is outside the MCG we never would have won a premiership otherwise. You can bring in Grundy or even superman and it won't make a difference we won't win a premiership while I'm alive and I've got another 30 to 40 years to live. The dynasty is over. Secondly we've been found out under pressure again and it's happened a lot during the last half of the season we just bomb it to either Gawn or Ben Brown and hope that we crumb it. The pressure by the opposition is too great for us to get away with it. The game plan does not work anymore get it into your thick skull Goody. Thirdly not to play a CHF in this game was a big mistake Gawn and Ben Brown can't do it all either McDonald or van Rooyen should have played. We must be the only team to not play a CHF. I hope van Rooyen and McDonald kill it for Casey to show what a stupid move it was to play neither. Fourthly too many players playing on their premiership reputation, namely Sparrow, Spargo, Salem and Rivers, time to seriously look at them. Fancy Gawn putting in a shocker against a no name ruckman and Berry playing out his skin. Melksham's last half of the year has been good but it's time for him to hang up the boots and bring fresh blood in.

Due to being no change in the seniors I have to put McDonald in the side. B: D.Smith, Turner, Rosman HB: Bowey, Tomlinson, Baker C: Howes, Dunstan, Woewodin HF: Chandler, van Rooyen, Joel.Smith F: Bedford, McDonald, M.Brown FOLL: Weideman, White, Laurie IC: Buntine, Munro, McVee, Moniz-Wakefield, Valentine

How they can not go with McDonald has got me stuffed. Can't Goody see we need another key forward? Lucky we are playing Brisbane, we wouldn't be able to beat any other opponent with the team we got.

Possible team B: Birch, Gillard HB: Goldrick, Lampard, Heath C: Mithen, Purcell, Paxman HF: Hore, Bannan, Zanker F: D.Pearce, Harris FOLL: L.Pearce, West, Hanks IC: Chaplin, Sherriff, Ivey, Fitzsimon, Johnson

He's not a poor forward but he's not a good forward either. He's a capable forward. If McDonald comes in Gawn as the 3rd tall could cause problems.

Melbourne B: Lever, May, Hibberd HB: Hunt, Petty, Salem C: Langdon, Brayshaw, Harmes HF: Petracca, McDonald, Pickett F: Fritsch, B.Brown, Gawn FOLL: Jackson, Oliver, Viney IC: Spargo, Neal-Bullen, Melksham, Sparrow SUB: Rivers Brisbane B: Gardiner, Andrews, Starcevich HB: Coleman, Payne, Rich C: McCluggage, Neale, Bailey HF: McCarthy, Hipwood, Raynor F: Cameron, Daniher, McStay FOLL: Fort, Lyons, Zorko IC: Answerth, J.Berry, Mathieson, Robertson SUB: Ah Chee

Gawn is more than a capable forward. Where did you get 700k from? That would mean he comes as a fourth round pick. Collingwood would be paying half his salary guaranteed. The only problem is should he be a first rounder or a second rounder. I don't think he's any better than Ben Brown who was a second rounder.

The only reason JVR hasn't played a game is that were playing finals and Melksham has done his job. JVR will get plenty of game time next year.

Nah McDonald will come in from all reports and Rivers will be the one that probably makes way for him.

Massive game on Saturday the 10th of September at Casey at 1:10 pm. Casey has just had the bye after beating Sydney by 47 points. Brisbane are also in the PF after beating Carlton by 12 points last week. The winner will play the winner of the Southport v Gold Coast game. Possible team B: D.Smith, Turner, Rosman HB: Bowey, Tomlinson, Rivers C: Howes, Dunstan, Baker HF: Laurie, van Rooyen, Joel.Smith F: Bedford, M.Brown, Chandler FOLL: Weideman, White, Munro IC: Buntine, McVee, Woewodin, Moniz-Wakefield, Valentine I think Rivers will make way for McDonald in the senior team.

I thought you had to delist 3 players rookies not included? The way I see the list Jackson gets traded, Baker gets delisted and Rosman gets delisted then re rookied. Mitch is a rookie I think he will retire Majak has already retired Rosman will take his spot. We recruit Grundy and Chandler gets promoted that leaves us with one draft pick and 2 rookie picks. Senior team B: Lever, May, Hibberd HB: Hunt, Petty, Salem C: Langdon, Brayshaw, Jordon HF: Petracca, McDonald, Pickett F: Fritsch, B.Brown, Gawn FOLL: Grundy, Oliver, Viney IC: Harmes, Sparrow, Spargo, Neal-Bullen SUB: Rivers Casey B: D.Smith, Turner, Rosman HB: Bowey, Tomlinson, Rivers C: Howes, Dunstan, Woewodin HF: Laurie, van Rooyen, Melksham F: Bedford, J.Smith, Chandler FOLL: Weideman, Rookie, Rookie IC: McVee, Moniz-Wakefield, Draft Pick Key Forward

I'd be just happy to pick up Grundy. We have van Rooyen and can pick up another tall forward with Freo's first rnd pick.

In all seriousness what would it take to get Grundy over the line?

Don't worry GNF all fun and games better to have some gossip than none at all. Don't worry about those keyboard bullies.

Not only will Trac play he'll get best on ground.

We don't need Meek unless he's steak knives Lobb is the one I'd be interested there is talk that he's on the move. He can kick goals too unlike Jackson and Grundy.

Grundy will be a great pick up. Stright swap Grundy for the Weid.

4 turnovers from only 12 disposals from Salem. Everyone says he's a great kick but I think his kicking has dropped off he's in career worst form.

I think we should move Gus down back again it's his best position. Salem has been a disgrace drop him. B: Lever, May, Hibberd HB: Hunt, Petty, Brayshaw C: Harmes, Petracca, Langdon HF: Pickett, McDonald, Melksham F: Fritsch, B.Brown, Gawn FOLL: Jackson, Oliver, Viney IC: Spargo, Sparrow, Neal-Bullen, Rivers

You beauty go Harmesy

Has Spargo ran over your cat? You have had him in the gun for a while. A lot poorer than him tonight.

Rough on May it should read Franklin's his [censored]

I can understand the Nibbler hatred but I'd be willing to give him one more week to rectify it. If he plays like he did against the Swans then he's dropped if we make it to the next round. Melksham and Salem should go before him.

You can't base it on last weeks game all he needed to do was get through and he did. We may beat Brisbane without McDonald but we won't beat anyone else without him must play.
