Farewell Luke Jackson
In comparison to Sam Weideman this year who's played 8 games this year for only 23 marks. If it's true that we're playing Petty up forward then you'd think it's just about lights out for Weideman's time at Melbourne. I've always been a fan of Petty as a forward because he looked just as natural up there as he does down back. I personally didn't think they'd trial it this year especially so late in the season but it certainly can't hurt to try it. With Daniel Turner signed up for 2 years and someone who's rated enormously high, maybe this could be a position switch going into next year with Petty to play up forward and Turner to take his spot down back.

Daisy's commentary
I'm probably one of a few that's not really big on Daisy as a commentator. But in all honesty I'm not big on many commentators in today's game. Personally think the standard and talent has dropped significantly. I'm more interested in her career as a full time coach for Geelong because I think she'll be a ripper! I think it's been magnificent to see her career the way it's panned out from being a pioneer of women's footy to now becoming an assistant coach at an AFL club. Hopefully this now opens the door to more opportunity for women coming through the men's coaching ranks. In terms of commentators I do like Anthony Hudson the most. Some of the games iconic moments captured have also included his commentary which creates good theatre, e.g Jeremy Howe mark in 2012 and the Buddy "Thiirrrteeeen" A left field one who I've really enjoyed over the past couple of years and deserve significant air time is Nigel Carmody. For those that don't know he usually does the AFL women's team and also the VFL on 7. He is seriously underrated in my eye and I would like to see him get promoted to more prime time slots next year while they [censored] off BT and Carey. I know James Brayshaw annoys a lot of people but you have to admit, his Clayton Oliver's "Bang bang bang" commentary will certainly go down as one of the best moments in that grand final. Among others that is..

Farewell Luke Jackson
Thanks once again mate. Hitting the nail once again it seems with this one. The Joel Smith forward link is certainly an interesting one that's for sure.

Pretty sure Harmes did it back in 2018.

Jordan De Goey
It's certainly a good one to raise 'Fat' because talent alone he's easily a top 10 player in the game. I wouldn't be surprised if Degoey's name is raised when our list management and Goody do sit down for their annual catch up. But when weighing everything I think he's just far too toxic for the culture we're trying to build.

Not sure how Kate Roffey would feel if she knew her footy club was interested in a bloke that has had sexual assault history.. He's a genuine pig of a human. Lets leave it to the dwarf lighters (St Kilda) for this one.

2022 AFL National Draft prospects: The next batch
He's an exceptional talent Reminds me of Lever when he dominated as bottom age.

Jesus 'Fat'.. some interesting claims you gone with here. Don't think 'ice addict' was ever attached to Dusty at all. His issue was more just immaturity and off field professionalism. This was all when he was much younger then Degoey who is 27 next year and still carries on like a 17 year old [censored].

He's the kmart Petracca.

CHANGES: Rd 19 vs Western Bulldogs
Probably too late in the year to make the switch up forward. If they're gonna consider it for next year then they'll need to train him with the forwards group all pre season so that he's got the structure down pat.

POSTGAME : Rd 18 vs Port Adelaide
Bedford only had 66% game time. That's very low time on ground to play a defensive role LH. Demonland has a habit of always looking for little excuses on a player's form. Doesn't hurt to accept that he was just plain ordinary on the day and was way off it. Bedford isn't a big ball winner even at VFL level. The numbers of those stats are evident. When you aren't a big ball winner at VFL level there's a fair you ain't going to get a lot of the ball at AFL level either. Even at junior level he wasn't a big ball winner. Burst player who can kick quick goals in quarters.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - KYSAIAH KROPINYERI PICKETT
Only thing that stopped Jeff Farmer from being one of the absolute great forward pockets of the game was him passing off to Freo. Was never the same player.

Sometimes you just have a day where everything just falls into place. His form has been building for a few weeks now.

The Run Home
I'm probably more confident beating Freo in Perth then I am with the doggies this week for some unknown reason.

It just got even more absurd..

Yze to coach GWS?
It was sarcasm, hence the wishful thinking with the gif. Bucks fits well into the media now days and I enjoy his insights and game day analysis o. Fox Footy.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - KYSAIAH KROPINYERI PICKETT
Was one of the best individual displays I've seen alongside Gawns 5 in a preliminary. I'll continue to pump up this kid as long as i want, but his numbers right now against some of the best small forwards I've seen such as Betts, Milne, C Rioli blows them out of the water at similar age. Jeff Farmer was my absolutely hero growing up and never thought I'd ever see another one as unique as he was. But these highlights below just gives me flashbacks. Scary to think he's only just turned 21..

If Lever needs the week off, then we give him the week off. Simply need everyone cherry ripe for September.
