What makes you say that? Did he train with the main squad?

I compare Brayshaws first couple of years to Scott Thompson. In four years with the Dees Thompson careers was just littered with injuries and form and could barely get on the park. He played 39 games in 4 years. After he got traded to the crows Thommo had a break out year in his 5th year and played the whole season. Brayshaw is in the exact same spot and currently on 31 games who's also had his career filled with injuries and form. I can see him coming back in the AFL over the next couple of weeks and playing a good stretch of games. I too also think Brayshaw will make huge strides next year and we'll show the AFL world why we took him high in the draft. The trade talk is just plain silly and ridiculous.

No. I took it as a year by year with Bernie, especially when you recruit a 28 year old who was known for inconsistency in his game.

If you had told me we'd get 70 games out of Bernie Vince back in 2013 i would have laughed at you. Matured into a fine senior player and has always been a solid contributer.

Its called humour and sarcasm mate. Something you obviously struggle with. Im sure even the great Saty would know im just fooling around with him.

I reckon it was Saty.

Set to play more of an outside role now to helping him protect from the midfield knocks. https://www.sen.com.au/news/2017/05/09/dees-plot-brayshaws-safest-return/

Have people not learn't from the Josh Fraser situation. You simply don't throw kids in straight to the wolves. Yes id like to have a traditional ruckman playing but its not whats costing us games right now. In fact Pedersen playing the last 2 weeks ment we have won the center clearences in both games. He is doing a mighty job and thats all we can ask. Of course we'll lose the hitouts but he's still crashing into opposition ruckman and giving a contest. King has just played his 3rd senior in the VFL and got absolutely monsterd by Pruess. Yet on that form peple want him to come in against Jacobs!? Wow.. Let the kid continue to develop at VFL level.

Apparently he spent the night in hospital.

I remember last year when Garlett was dropped for 3 weeks Roosy brought him back in on the back of poor form in the VFL simply because "he was too good of a player to be playing VFL". Goody needs to roll the dice and bring back Kent. Some players just play better at AFL level then VFL and Kent is one of them.

Jay Clark @ClarkyHeraldSun Reality check on Melbourne. One of the four youngest teams every week. Winning more quarters than not. I'm happily buying their stock.

Just saw reports that he was spotted looking at houses in Elwood. apparently now St Kilda could become a serious contender for his services. Surely we would be at least having a quite chat while he's in town?

We don't tag players mate.. its not in our DNA.

Looking at the VFL stats i see Dean Kent had 16 disposal 1 goal and 8 tackles. Mitch King had 12 disposals 29 hitouts and 5 tackles. Seems to be building with each game. In saying that Pruess had 71 hitouts!

Jake Melksham has copped a 1 week suspension in the VFL.

Been saying this since the start of last year. More so on Tom McDonald who just drinks his own bath water. Continues to kill us with simple errors. Id like to give Oscar a bit more time but jesus.. sometimes i think we have our very own Zac Dawson when watching Oscar spud it up. Sam Frost for me is our best number 1 defender.

I just watched the presser and my first instinct is he was rightly [censored] off. Haven't seen more angry then that. Goody is fine. At least he tried a few things which i enjoyed. One thing Roosy never did was try and change things up when we were down. Was pretty one dimensional in his game day changing.

How do you think Nathan Jones will be feeling? Another year of no finals just slipping away for him. Poor bloke.

Harmes laid 8 and got dropped.

Positives Viney was good but please stop trying to take on the tackler when their is a teammate on the outside waiting. Got his groove back. Frost was our and potentially best defender. Roughead kicked 4 of the cheapest goals i have every seen. Umps were on their knees with Roughy... Will be hard to get those grass stains off. Hunt gave us the spark we needed as did Garlett. At least Goody wad trying something which we can't fault. Pedersen again battled well in the ruck. McEvoy got his goals simply when Pedo was on the bench. Uglies Bugg and JKH i thank you for your services but you guys have played your last game in Red and Blue. Pity because i really wanted JKH to makr it. Hannan is a passenger we have carried through out the year. Shocking skills and turned it over way too much. Bsck to Casey and actually earn your spot ffs. Sorry but nothing has changed my opinion about Vince since the Freo game. Bloke is cooked. With about 30 seconds to go he decides to just chip it in for a 20m pass to Salem. just doesn't know how to stand up as a leader in the close games. Love Clayton Oliver more then anyone but far out 4 kicks for the whole day to go with 24 handballs. Your kicking is just as effective Clarry, use it! The banana in pyjamas brothers just stunk it up today. Personally Frost is our number 1 defender for me over Tmac. Oscar gave away some plain silly free kicks. Petracca needs to play more midfield minutes each week. Need to start grooming him for the future if we want him to be that Dustin Martin midfielder. Last but not least to Jade Rawlings. Why are you teaching all of our defenders to fly for the one ball with no one waiting down? FFS even the 180cm tall Jetta was flying for every kick that was coming inside our forward 50. All year we have done this. Its not wonder goals are leaked so easy because we have no one waiting down. The are the days i hate this footy club.

I don't need to watch the replay i saw what i saw on TV and he was next to useless. Will be out next week alongside JKH and Hannan.

The last minute we had the opportunity to bomb straight into our forward 50. Vince wins the ball and handballs to Hibberd in the middle only for him to handball to a stationary target. Exactly why we have been a dumb football side for the past 10 years.

Who the actual [censored] was on Tim O' Brien? 10 marks and 2 goals.

Another wasted year, another year with no finals. Seriously over this club. We have not learn't a thing from last year and continue to just drop close games. Pretenders is all we are.
