I dont think Hunt will be dropped being one of our only effective forwards

Out TMac, Jackson, Jones. In Weideman , Pickett Hibberd. Hibberd to go back and Smith to go forward. Jetta has also been pretty shaky the last few games and is close to getting dropped for mine. So Jetta for Lockhart Is another possible change.

How bad are Melbourne really? Absolutely pathetic!

We still can’t find a tall forward. Tmac still can’t mark the ball, and Jackson is too raw. Thank god for Petracca and Oliver

Typical Bloody Melbourne

Petracca and Oliver are absolute beasts

His stupidity has cost him a place along side uncle Nev for his big milestone game.

Jordan as an emergency is also very interesting. He must be training really well

I think our defense had been ok and our mids have been ok. I just hope we used this time to sort out the connect with the forward line, as that, I believe ,was the main issue holding us back.

Having guys like Salem back in and with Bennell and Rivers strengths as kicking, our forward line delivery should be improved.

Luke Jackson gives us everything Weideman can give and more because he is also a genuine ruck man.

Fritsch, TMac , Weideman, Melksham, Jones, Brown, Pickett etc.. are all capable of kicking goals if we get it in their hands.

One thing. We have to fix the disconnect between our midfield and our forward line.

Teams keep getting us on the outside. We now have wingers but they can’t kick. We get our hands on the ball a lot but turn it over with blind handballs. We hardly ever kick it to a leading forward and mostly bomb it in , giving the opposition the best chance to defend. Until we fix this up We won’t improve. Never seen a team work so hard to get the ball and then just waste it time and time again.

Pencilled that in as a loss anyway. Always next week.........wait

Forward of centre we are deplorable , continue to bomb it on. Pathetic pressure and tackling too. Very disappointing.

I watched both preseason games closely and our skills looked really good. Maybe it’s just the pressure of playing front if the parochial west coast crowd. Oh wait.......

What is that terrible elevator music they are playing between goals and ball ups?

Viney has been fantastic, Gawn not his usual self. Does the captaincy weigh that heavily?

Still no forward system at all and Tom McDonald is still very ordinary

All this just coz a guy ate a bat in China

What a top bloke! Taking a swipe at a team he has good mates at, and the only team that took a chance on him and gave him a shot at AFL when he was just a scrubber down in Tassie.

No way is Bont the number one player in the league. For mine it’s 1.Martin, 2.Fyfe, 3.Cripps Then there’s a bunch including Danger, Buddy, Josh Kelly, Neale, Grundy , Gawn , J. Cameron, Yeo ,and Bont in that group.

Hats off the the club. It really is a brilliant insight, totally engrossing.
