CHANGES: Rd 05 vs Hawthorn
Just wondering if anyone thinks Will b.brown be introduced before Weid and does anyone think it will happen in the tigers game?

Trade Fritsch
Guilty as charged with Hunt. Total reversal in form. Tmac likewise. Full credit to them. I thought Lever has been rocky at times but now revealing the complete class that he is. Have always loved Fritra. Slight frame but incredible strength and speed goes with it.

Forgot to add that Lj sharing the ruck load is why Max is winning games for us.

Certainly gone to that level we were all hoping he would. Growing in confidence snd seems to be genuinely loving it out there. As are his fans.

My Round 5 Preview and Prediction
Our win against the cats was a lot bigger. We kicked poorly...one poster and 3 clangers should have been a 50 point margin. Shocking conditions too. Looking at 8 goal win v hawks.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - LUKE JACKSON
Hitouts v Cats. Blicavs 14, Jackson 12, Stanley 10. Clearances: Blicavs 1 Jackson 4 Stanley 3 Disposals: Blicavs 9 Jackson 10 Stanley 10 I was looking forward to him v Blicavs who is similar type of tall, athletic player who plays ruck and a key position. I thought physically he held his own against him in the stoppage ruck contests and didn't look physically overwhelmed at all. This is a huge step up for a 19 yr old tall. Watched the replay today and I think he did hold his own. I think what I observed on the weekend was that Max dominated compared to Lj in the ruck but yea he was alright. Notwithstanding Max is bigger and been doing it for many years.?

What’s our best 22 ?
Good choice. Maybe for me only swapping Weid and Melk after the cats game. Not like for like but weid is pretty athletic for his size. Great to see Gus playing so well again. Poor Jetta. Nothing would please me more and Im sure you to see him come back like Tmac. Has been one of the clubs best players.

Can we just delete this thread? Nothing to see here.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - LUKE JACKSON
I think this is a fair analysis. He is only 19 and hasnt devrloped fully physically either. Hasnt been great in the ruck but hes nimble at ground level in terms of crumbing, chasing and tackling. As a side note so is Max Gawn....his crumbing has been excellent. Plays like a small for a 208cm man. LJ is doing his job by bringing the ball to ground and stopping intercept marks and run. When he starts holding all his marks...watch out.

My Round 5 Preview and Prediction
Lets me honest. We are Dees supporters. They are ALL danger games. From the top team to the lowest us Dees fans are in constant angst. And while I should have been panicking while geelong were surging in the 3rd though I was a tad worried....for some strange reason I really thought we would win out. What are these strange emotions? I get the feeling the players certainly believed they would. Yes Im worried about his game but not because I think we will take it lightly or the hawks are remotely better. Im now worried because I dont want this ecstasy of winning to stop.

Hore would probably be in for Jetta if not injured. I hear what you are saying but for me its foot to the throat time. Keep ploughing onwards.

Dont mind at all if we only beat teams below us. Will keep happening until we smash the dogs and then continue.

Could get his hands on the pill due to the greediness of all other Dees players hogging it.?

10 Reasons Why This is The Best Forward Squad
I complained about Hunt constantly being played in defence and boy was I wrong about that. Daw would be good but Im hoping there is simply no room for him. Anb has been fantastic. Works very hard.

POSTGAME: Rd 04 vs Geelong
Looking at the May hawkins incident in slo mo....maybe it was an accident. Can i just ask: How do we know it was? The bloke through his elbow without looking towards Mays face and gee it made contact. How could it not that close in? Just saying maybe it was but one could say maybe it wasnt. Why did he throw his elbow back in the first place? Any player can throw an elbow behind him when being held by his opponent and say I didnt mean to make contact. Was it just reflex? If so its still dangerous. Is this a precedent for future errant elbows. The Afl talks about concussion but maybe even accidents like this need to penalised. At least a suspended sentence. This way players might just have to keep their massive elbows to themselves and stop either accidents...deliberate....or "deliberate accidents " from causing serious injuries.
