WERRIDEE

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.

In: McDonald, Bowey and Dunstan Out: Melksham, Salem and Harmes Firstly we need a big CHF McDonald is the man might be a bit underdone but he's all we have. With all the good work Melksham has done recently he undone it in one night what a disgusting game. Cost us any chance of winning the game with 2 costly misses and who could forget the slipping over incident. No one has the guts to say it but I will Salem has been disgusting all season and doesn't deserve his spot in the side would prefer Bowey. Dunstan comes in for the suspended Harmes.

It's never good to have a soft game before the finals and the Brisbane game was soft. Firstly I have to say it's the first game in over a year that we have been completely outplayed. We have had excuses in the other losses but no excuse tonight. Only 2 winners on the night in Clarry and May it's sad to have so many non contributors in the game. Must bring our a game against the Lions.
