WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BRAYDON PREUSS
Tommy is getting better each game and the ruck assist role suits him. Handy around ground and was so close to clunking 2 or 3 on Sat near the square. Dogs smaller deference opens up our chances fir the taller marking fir Weid and Tommy

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARRISON PETTY
That's my point DrD Petty "will be a KP either forward or back " not Jacko as you are thinking from my post Jacko will be a ruckman plus mid on ballers plus forward who is versatile because if his range of skills and remarkable athleticism. Of course Petty if at CHF or FF full time will kick more goals than Jacko but how many Jacko gets AND score involvements May not differ a great deal in total.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARRISON PETTY
Won't replace Jacko As both are very different types of player NO ONE plays like Luke he is a freak and a complete X factor on ball and up forward as a floater. Will be Key position back or forward

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARRISON PETTY
not sure of where Petty will end up but not on a wing !!! Either CHF or CHB or FB or FF depending upon our key position players and who performs and also maybe as a swing and versatile key. Lets just hope he can overcome his injury if not in 2020 but ASAP.

What they're saying down at Lulie Street
May be they could bring back Weids Dad To mind Trac!!

What they're saying down at Lulie Street
Thanks DW thought Clarry May have seen Trac now do it on ball and realised he could also as had gitness and training bade to do the same Yes Burgo that's a definite genius tip. And our whole midfield has turned on it's head as we have 2 inside And outside bulls (Clarry and Trac) now plus much more rated outsider in Gus who likes time and space To dispose. Jack still ferocious and he also is much more composed and kicking beautifully. Did 2 or 3 beauties in front of me at the Gabba yesterday. He is steading like Hibbo and disposal is VIP now. BTW I keep including young Jacko in our midfield as his ball gets after ruck work and 2nd and 3rd follow ups are elite.Rarely wastes a handball and Kicks on the run fine. Such a future has he Cant wait till he plays 50 games wow how good! Its all a half glass full let's hope it continues as We don't really know where this journey may take us! Just win the next game each week and concentrate like that and our position will take care of itself.

What they're saying down at Lulie Street
True DP Very very Happy to watch another near decade of this midfield if they play like they are now. Plus Jacko!!!
-
What they're saying down at Lulie Street
That's the old or previous Clarry! Now plays both inside and outside (like Trac) and kicks and handballs with much precision and care now. It's not the no care and no responsibility Clarry any more. Its very much the Trac like Clarry get ball and accelerate out and then carefully dispose of the ball to a teammate but mixes it up with his superb handball skills. its all about maximising possessions for the team benefit now! Still won't get as many Brownlow votes as Trac probably, even though he has ginger hair!!!

My 3 word player analysis v Collingwood
Doesn't like body contact much I don't think Couple of coach killers but still played part in team defence.

Jay Lockhart
Totally correct Deanox BUT kudos to Hibbo ha has despite a tough year ( brother etc) ha has lost weight I'd ba k to 2018 form and disposal is up to scratch again. However you are correct Jay is a Real footballer in the trenches with some class and aggression to boot and is Nevs replacement. Trent is a 200 gamer if ever there is one and will I believe ( no pressure) be linked with our HB greats like Brett Lovett Don Williams Tony Anderson and Ian Thorogood. (May even have mid field skill) He is ATM fighting Harmes Hibbo and Salem ( maybe Hore if fit snd in form) but will hold his place very soon in our best 22 going forward prob in 2021. Good times at Half Back snd in the pocket also. V important also it appears that the Coaches and FD also have the same views about Jay and Trent. Now all they need to do Is trial Joel Smith back as a forward !!!

Angus Brayshaw
Please don't waste time in furthering the media and some confused D/Lers about trade options fir Angus. Its patently obvious he is valued rather higher inwardly at Club level ( where it really only matters) by the Coaches and FD. AND As sure as I can be every interview Gus is totally committed to the cause (Yes sometimes it is not fully apparent by looks) in his speech about game Time, lack of on ball time but refers to other strings like tagging commitment to team cause etc. Doesn't sound like Any one about to look elsewhere any time soon to me. At least most D/Lers are now are saying only the BEST ready made player could be involved in a trade replacement. Our synergy presently developing with the on ball crew including Jacko (why BTW for all his youth and not quite ready body and who is a naturally skilled team player ) each plays a different role and brings unique skills to their game and our team our outside runner with a Trac And Clarry starting to accelerate out of stoppages plus Gus mostly outside ( also Langdon on occasions) run it's starting to Balance the midfield skills quite nicely. Its Looking like Gus is an integral part of our future success because he wants to be and perform his role in that for as long as he is able. Let the players play That's what they do best!

Angus Brayshaw
Trade talk in a couple of weeks will be redundant as bout Gus as he proves played in the guts he is second to none in using the ball and linking our gdmd together. Notice how the Trac trade talk is Now nonexistent ( treason almost in fact) and this will be repeated about Gus. Eho will the next targets be Harmes ? All are different cats and that's the dilemma for the opposition who to tag?? BTW Harmesy had his best game this year by far today and Melky also with best games ever in pure results from Spargs and Sparrow, Oh and max credit to the FD and coaches for having Pruessy ready and really fit for combat. I was waiting for him to be puffed out by HT but no he was still strong late in the game and played a strong game time with good support for Tommy who was so close to a three goal haul todsy.

THE RUN HOME 2020
Don't forget Saints who if lose to Bombers will only be 1 game ahead and down in % with us Still to play them in the Alice. Then it's a matter of wins from then on in. Also with Jacko out Tommy plays in ruck and Brown at CHF and Tomlinson says in to add to Ruck division if Gawny doesn't play If it's wet then that is better anyway. Still got our four stars in the ball and up forward plusWeid Kossie and Fritta to lead the forward division.
