Why did he get dropped though.

Obviously you haven't seen Luke Dunstan play.

Poor bloke. Get him right anx healthy. No rush as Dawesy said he is a 10 year player for us.

Agreed Chip will leave at years end. And to be honest we are doing quite well without him down back. But will be a massive loss indeed.

If I was Jimmy Toumpas I would be absolutely livid if jack Watts isn't dropped this week.

Give me guy like Geogiou and Pedersen who bust their ass and show courage over the soft [censored] Jack Watts. One of the most pathetic game from an AFL player I have ever seen. Even in country footy you don't get away with some of those insipid efforts he put out on the weekend.

Great debut from Salem. Looking forward to a full game next week hopefully. A complete footballer that thrives on 1%. I thought Adam Yze had pulled on the boots again. Tough little bugger too.

Which one?

He was also reported on the Hogan injury first and said he was going to miss at least 6 weeks when Dave Misson said he was still a chance for round 1.Turn it up PSD, he was spot on right from the start and our club needs to pull its finger out in keeping us supporters in the loop first instead of hearing it off the footy show.

We bring in more experience with Jamar and Byrnes. I have a feeling Mckenzie days as a footballer are nearly finished.

Hang on a minute..! I started the thread just in regards to why wasn't Hogan name read out on the Dave Mission Injury list.. I thought it was a bit odd thats all. Hows that sensationlising it?

Forgot to add ROK is just as hard at training as is Cross is. Crazy about his diet so would be a valuable leader in driving those standards.

Seems to be on the outer in the same way Crossy was last year. I think we should look at him at years end and grab him on a one year contract as I still feel we are a few experience short of older heads. Nearly at the 300 game mark plus 3 grand final experience and one of the most professional players in the AFL. With the success of Crossy and what he has brought to our side I reckon it wouldn't hurt at all. Obviously the Roos connection is a big plus but I hope we atleast have a chat to him. Could you imagine guys like Toumpas, Tyson, Viney, Barry and hopefully another talented mid plus Stretch looking up to Cross and O'Keefe? PS He actually started his career as a demon playing some reserves footy way back in 1999!

Jono O'Rourke would add class and height to our midfield. Style like Trent Cotchin and pick 2 in the 2012 draft. Ryan O'Keefe just got dropped ast week and seems on the outer like cross was at the bulldogs. Wouldn't hurt to add another 200 plus games and finals experience to our list. Like Cross one of the most professional players in the competition in regards to diets and training ability. Kristian Jaksch. Talented key forward who kicked some big bags for GWS twos last year and is good family friends with the Vineys. Pick 8 I think in the 2012 draft aswell.

Just on that Jeff Farmers missus got on the MFC facebook page and made a comment at how much the Wiz regretted moving to Freo and that he will always be a Demon first. Apparently Freo gave him the heave ho and cut all ties with him even club at functions, where to this day our great club always welcomes him into the rooms and past players over in Perth whenever we play there. In fact last year Wiz was at the training day before the Freo game over there. Players were in absolute awe of him. One of my all time favourite MFC players. Loved him as a kid straight away and still love him to this day. If he had stayed in Melbourne we would have won a grand Final he was seriously so electrifying for us.

Speaking of TJ anyone remember that game against adelaide in the final where he tore it to shreds and kick 4? I thought he arrived that night..

Did anyone find it a bit unusual that Dave Mission didn't mention anything about Jesses injury? Normally every play on our injury list gets a mention but nothing on hoges.. I have a yuk feeling he has had a setback and wont mention anything for the time being..

Was waiting for that..

Played footy with Brett Mahoney from Subiaco. Hows he going this year.

Out of those comments I hope Blease, Garland and Jamar come in.

Went to the game to watch my cousin Tom Nicholls play. Went into the game thinking even though Tommy is talented he is still pretty lean and I expected a bigger bodied Spencer to dominate. I walked away from the game proud of Tommy but absolutely disgusted the performance Spencer put up. I don't care about last weeks performance this bloke is seriously not a AFL player. Can't mark, Can't Kick, can't do sweet FA.. The sooner he is out of the team the better we are. As I said in another thread, Pedersen was more valuable in the ruck then Spencer was all day.

Most annoying thing about watching that highlights footage was the guy doing the stats!

I have been pretty critical in regards to Dawes's body and how Jack Fitzpatrick would make a better CHF.... I am now having one of the bestest slice of humble pie going around. None of this cheap stuff the real expensive taste! His performance so far is quite unbelievable for a guy that has had no Pre season. He is a true key forward and straightens us up. Keeps going the way he is and he will kick a bag soon. Did anyone see before the game when they were in their positions on the ground and all the forwards were huddled around him, he was barking instructions and telling them where to position. I thought wow its almost like having an on field coach. This is not a pot shot but I don't think I ever saw Mitch Clark to that? On ya Dawesy!

Pedo was far more effective in the ruck then Spencer was the whole game. Bring in the Russian!

This is why i was very surprised we didnt take Nathan Freeman. I thought he was the perfect big bodied very quick mid that we were seriously lacking. Am happy with Salem though.
