The AFL are [censored] id iots. This game should have been moved to Marvel for this afternoon during the week instead of Metricon. Gold Coast play Carlton next week in Melbourne so it made sense that GC stay in Melbourne for this week and play in Melbourne again Bunch of amateurs.

Going to be a slog. The travel up on game day is one factor. Remember Maxy Gawn on an RSN interview said he personally struggled with this. Huge must win game.

Agree wholeheartedly

His athleticism is through the roof. Easily a top 15 draft prospect.

I have a great deal of respect for Caro and have been for many years regardless of what people think of her. There is a reason why she has good well connected sources within clubs.

A few egg on faces now in regards to Caro. She was right all along.

Goodness gracious how on earth does this happen?

Doubtful

The point is by bring talls in its to make Lever more accountable and May to lesser degree. Last week showed how vulnerable Lever is when matched one on one. Couple of times times he was simply out marked by Naughton in one on one contests. The other point is now clubs are putting enormous amount of work into Salem. The pressure they applied on him on the weekend was evident and he hasn't been able to give that run and drive like he did in the first half of the year. No coincidence that they've brought in an extra distributor in Bowey? Our defence is still standing up and doing a great job. But clubs are starting to click onto this. We are leaking easy goals then compared to the first half of the year.

I didn't mention anything that it was specifically just the Doggies game. Our defensive unit has dropped off in the past couple of weeks.

Clubs have simply worked us out. Man up Lever, limit the delivery to May and put enormous amount of heat and pressure on Salem and that's a significant win.

It didn't need to be the alternative though. I would have been happy to bring Melksham in to shore up a ball use going inside 50. Time and time again over the Goodwin era where we've shaken our heads at selection. It's cost us wins. We are 4 weeks out from finals and no close to fixing up not only our ball use going forward but our structure as well. I'm sorry for being hard on Jacko but he's an absolute witches cone in our forward line, and we are pretty much playing with a 5 man forward line. Would have been perfect to bring in Melksham and get our forward entries and structure right. Perplexing really.

Good to see Goodys stubborness at selection has kicked. Truly bizarre how Jackson continues to get a game.

What's Jackson got to do with Weideman? Two completely different players.

Wait what? Why? This game is scheduled at the MCG where we can still play game. Why on earth is this being moved to [censored] Darwin?

He hasn't put contract talks on hold. Hes still contracted until the end of 2022. Such a click bait article..

Certainly wouldn't be surprised.

Just a quick glance at Boweys impressive numbers at VFL level.

Awesome! From watching his game on VFL he's been an absolute stand out. I'm thinking Rivers will be dropped.

Goody in his press conference said they're pretty much playing at Metricon on Saturday.

In one of the Facebook MFC groups that I am in, Jeff's partner voiced her frustration and displeasure on there when Kobe was notified that we wouldn't be picking him up at the start of the year. A few pointed out that sometimes it just comes down to being simply not good enough and on exposed form didn't really show much. Still didn't take it well though. If she felt like that, I wonder how Jeff felt.

Great news which means VFL can now resume. Crucial now that we are heading to finals.

Interesting stat by On Th Couch.

And you have just highlighted Spargo's and Pickett's strengths also. They both use the footy and kick goals. Bedford is poor by foot and doesn't kick enough goals and Chandler barely wins enough of the footy as well.
