Hore or Smith could have probably helped out, but they can't, so unless M. Brown or Daw are seen as next after Petty and Tom, that may be the way we go. Tom actually looked better yesterday when he went back. It will be interesting to see which way we go in the mid season draft. It really is a free hit to secure some players who may be maturing as footballers, rather than relying on 18 year olds.

Agree Daz. A lock down key defender is looking a possible target. However, atm we have Petty and Tom Mac as the only real viable ones until maybe Joel Smith returns. Majak is killing them in the VFL, but is probably more a key forward or loose key Defender than a lock down one. Of course he can also pinch hit in the ruck. M. Brown is around and maybe could be one for a few games if needed. So it would seem that we may need a lock down key defender in the mid season draft, more than some other types. I would imagine there is a mature one somewhere who could play the role. With Tommo down, it seems we now have 3 spots, so we could grab a few extra players that we could develop and then keep next year, if they show promise.

What about the assists? He is getting them and giving them.

This kid is going to be so much better than I ever imagined. Kudos to Jason and his team. 3 picks for 3 direct hits and great hits at that.

Sounds like we agree. Posted this several hours ago. "Argument has to be, that is my broken hand arm and I can’t fend off with my hand, as it could be further damaged, so used my forearm to his shoulder, but he ducked and caused the head contact. No concussion. Played the game out. Hopefully that is a fine"

Well, top of the ladder after 7 games. Played poorly today and won by 5 goals. Good sides do that.

You will find that occurs 59% of the time.

I agree with you 73% of the time. 67% of people don't understand percentage.

Argument has to be that is my broken hand arm and I can’t fend off with hand as it could be further damaged, so used forearm to shoulder but he ducked and caused the head contact. No concussion. Played the game out. Hopefully that is a fine but as Jaded said he is a MFC player and I expect a week.

Arrogance on here and same on field.

Shocking. Looks bad given his distress. Petty is probably next in.

It was from the AFL site ,which initially listed 5 interchange players for each team. I shouldn't believe anything the AFL says.

I was looking at the AFL site on my phone. Initially they had 5 interchange for each team.

His Captain is his equal.

Strange Chandler is in 23, probably sub, when he played Thursday and Baker didn’t play.

After 300 games, being managed and not having to fly to Tassie and being allowed to spend the time with pregnant wife and 2 kids does make sense, doesn’t it?

Why would they tank without a first round pick?

I don’t blame Melbourne, as all sides are the same, but not knowing the side less than a day before the game is strange. We have played footy for over a century knowing the teams a few days before the game. Not sure why the AFL has sanctioned this, as it is disappointing for the fans. Oh sorry, I forgot that the AFL puts the fans last in any issue.

Well if it was up to certain Demonlanders, Hunt, T Mac, Jordon, Spargo, Brayshaw, Lever, Tomlinson, Petty, Viney, Baker, Melksham, Jetta, Bradtke, Bedford and my favourite, ANB, wouldn't be at the MFC this year.

Gee, beat Roos this weekend and we are top of the ladder, a game clear.

Hopefully not 1, as in 6-1.

Yes I vote pick up the star. As we have 2 picks, I vote for picking up 2 stars.

Think it makes sense, as he is the most experienced at that ground on our list, it's his former club and it's a small ground favouring a big key forward.

I just said that. However looking like it is Tassie.

They mean a game against another club.
