Garbo

Better than an average player so he would deserve it. Of the 44 players on our list clearly in the 22

If he has some currency then trade him, means another chance to try again with a new kid and he’s no longer taking minutes from other kids we need to develop

Sure Bont is a better player clearly, but if you did that just pick 22 mids, why even bother to have a team. As a mid where Bont plays the majority of the time he wouldn’t be in the first dozen mids this year on form. One day if Bont goes and plays fwd most of the time then we can judge him on that but until that day he shouldn’t be in the side unless it’s as a mid.

Certain delistings Bennell, Chandler, Dunkley, Corey Wagner. Possible Bradtke, Brown, Josh Wagner, Omac, Nietschke, Jones

If its between Viney and Brayshaw id Trade Viney, has more value but, has probably peaked as a player and our midfield performs better without him imo.

Seems to be a lot of key fwds on the move this year, if dees want one it will happen. If a Ben Brown or Daniher is out of the question due to cost and injury then even some one like a hooker could straighten us up until Jackson is ready, but as we saw with the King Brothers this year that day can come quickly

I distinctly remember dogs blowing a chance v wc a few weeks back

Get it done, bombers need inside mids perhaps we can trade one of ours as a direct swap. Sparrow and a pick or a Brayshaw / Viney

I’d look at doing a tmac straight swap, both on big coin both not playing both could do with a fresh start

Until we can get more pressure from our fwds we won’t ever be better than average, Brown, Hunt, ANB, Weid, Fritsch, Melk and Spargo had a total of 2 tackles between them and only 1 inside. 50. As a team we had 4 tackles inside 50 for the whole game. Pickett with 2 tackles had as much as them combined. This team is going no where fast unless this improves massively

Knew I was hoping for to much for saints to fold, there is only one team that would fold in this sort of game.

It’s only about 50 points to make it up, assuming GWS did win by 3 goals, just means we have to beat bombers by 5, not out of the question if you know what is needed going in. Just to add this is basically the reverse of what happened in 2017

if he can get his body right then hes worth keeping on, he is young enough to have time on his side

Time for Goodwin to go something clearly isn’t right and he is at the centre of it. Wonder if the reason we didn’t take AFL money this year was so we can sack Goodwin if need be

Any chance we sack Goodwin before next year. I was happy to give the benefit of the doubt after last year but this does it for me, need to throw everything at Clarkson

Because we are a side show and everyone other than Melbourne supporters sees it

What’s the point we won’t be winning against anyone else in

If Harmes, Brayshaw and Jones are out what other general mids do we have to come in. AVB is the only one I can think of?

in Hibberd, Pickett, Bennell, baker out McDonald, anb, Wagner, Smith Goodwin seriously needs to get it in his head that not every player has to be a body on the line head over the ball, we need skilful players to who can spot and hit targets, while it would be good if players could be both we need to make some compromises and fine a balance

One has to question why we just bombed the ball fwd for the whole first half, completely headless stuff we reverted back to what we were doing at the start of the year. Why would they do that makes absolutely zero sense but seemed to be a conscious decision.

Also requires you to use your brain and play the conditions

One assist to papley

Looks windy trac just said it’s going to one end

Hurts us, basically guarantees pies a spot in the 8 if they win 1 more. One less spot up for grabs by those fighting to get in Just to add Expect in 2 weeks, dees gws and saints will all be on 9 wins with only % separating us. With one sitting 9th

Fritsch, Bedford and Hunt/Jetta in Picket, Hannan and Hibberd (managed) out I don’t like Wagner ball in hand I just don’t trust him, but probably did enough to earn another game
