He won’t.

I cannot believe how that game was destroyed by bad umpiring which appeared to be so heavily biased to Essendon. Marks not paid to GWS, clear frees not paid to GWS, whereas completely ridiculous frees were plucked out of nowhere to Essendon, turning the momentum of the game. A disgraceful performance by the AFL.

The game was fixed.

I’ve never seen such bad cheating by umpires. Absolutely fixed.

Smith, Garlett and Vandenberg all seriously injured during the preseason games. (Vandenberg last year.) Those games are a disaster for us.

SPEEDY St Kilda forward Dean Kent looks in doubt for Sunday afternoon's crunch clash with Richmond after hurting himself at training. During match simulation at RSEA Park, Kent kicked the football after a mark and then went down to the ground in pain. The nature of the injury is not yet known, but his prognosis will be confirmed after scans on Thursday afternoon. It marks yet another blow for the club, which has endured a wretched run with injuries this year. Lucky he left...

Or at least take 3-4 off!!

He had a foot injury that kept him out for a season and MFC dumped him. He coulda been...

Remember John Meesen? In October 2007 Meesen was traded to the Melbourne Football Club for the 37th selection in the 2007 AFL Draft. He made his debut for Melbourne in Round 3, 2009. Meesen was delisted at the end of the 2009 season along with Michael Newton; both were re-drafted as mature age rookies.[1] After failing to play a senior match in 2010 due to injury, Meesen was delisted at season's end.[2]Melbourne subsequently appointed Meesen to the role of part-time development coach. Recently, Meesen returned to his home grown club, Modewarre, where he took the opportunity to co-coach a young and talented team alongside veteran, Josh Finch. Meesen immediately attained the respect from his teammates and committee and begun a very successful 2018 season in Geelong's Bellarine Football League (BFL). Modewarre begun the season with just one win through the first four matches, however, turned the season around winning 9 of the next 11 games to ultimately gain a spot in the BFL Grand Final against the red hot favourites, Barwon Heads. Meesen was a dominant force in the ruck which reflected in his teams performances and brought Modewarre's first Premiership to the club since entering the BFL competition. Meesen was awarded best on ground for his grand final performance to complete his successful season. Meesen also finished runner up in the BFL League Les Ash Medal vote count.

I doubt Lever will be ready. Likewise Hibberd. Wagner should be dropped. Preuss should be given a chance.

So you think Cale Morton, Jimmy Toumpas and Jordan Gysberts were fabulous stars, well hand-picked by our master recruiting staff? Ignore you.

Totally irrelevant. This is a commentary blog for anyone to comment. It is also anonymous. Who has achieved and in what sport or other field is not revealed. By the way how many games did you play before you died of mesothelioma Steve?

Cale Morton for captain!

Yes he dislocated it again at training. Yes Hibberd went back to the operating theatre.

Except he’s a dud spud.

Are you a Collingwood player?

Try him at Casey at CHF when Casey Demons are playing at another venue.

Lever: injury prone. Puny. Needs to build up body in the gym with some weights and eat some steaks. Wait for next season (maybe). Jeffy G: recurrent shoulder dislocation. Needs a Putti-Platt or similar procedure to continue in AFL. Out for the season. May retire. Vandenberg: foot stuffed. Will retire. Hibberd: injury prone, sent back to play early after open reduction and internal fixation of clavicular fracture. Surprise, surprise the plate and screws came loose. Now he’ll be out for longer. Melksham: unlikely to return this season after foot injury. Jetta: should sit out the season and rest so he can return at full strength next year. This season is officially over for MFC. Prepare for next year.

Weidemann has already signed a new 2 year contract with MFC. There’s an article on the website.

Both captains frequently kick long up and under rugby style kicks into the forward fifty. This is a total misuse and waste of a possession and often leads to the opposition rebounding for a goal down the other end. They need a kick up the bum.

Hogan wanted to leave. He wasn’t going to stay. He was injured for a large part of last year and has not been that great this year, including some disciplinary issues.

We’ve been called “the young Demons” team for the past 45 years.

Agree

Why would Preuss be “unfit”. He did a preseason, he goes to training like the other guys.

He’s the unofficial captain. Leadership by example!
