So you and the media as well are going to stick the responsibility on an 18 year old kid. Can you imagine the pressure that will be brought to bear on him to achieve just the outcome you have posited. Judge the perpetrator ... not the victim

Run home to Finals - 2018
ah ... we've won one game against a contender by a couple of points ... the rest were against the also rans....nothing special about our form as has been said all year. In recent games against the contenders we in one instance could not and in the other barely defended a significant last quarter lead.

Run home to Finals - 2018
wow ... not improbable scenarios any of those six. Will be very hard to win 2 of the next three based on our post bye form. So it could be good night Irene if we lose to the Swans given the odds of winning both the remaining games is very low. We really have stuffed up this season. ?

The club need to consider the following: Impact upon Angus Brayshaw Impact upon supporters Impact upon sponsors Impact upon wider image of the club Can he deliver at the same level playing wise Need for his skills Dollar cost Impact upon other players on MFC List If they do all that in a professional manner with reasonable transparency I will support the decision made. I trust it is not an easy decision.

POST MATCH DISCUSSION - Round 20
The only reason for their existence is the spurious argument that you need two local teams to maintain the momentum in the local market. It is a death market.... look at Brisbane... three premierships in the capital city and yet they cannot turn a profit. What hope a GC team at Cararra .. the Waverley of the Gold Coast

The toxicity with the Brayshaw family would be enormous. I think his cards have been marked re coming to Melbourne. One also has to consider his reputation going forward. (Read sponsors) It's a distraction we don't need for the kind of money we would have to offer

the charging of Leigh Matthews in a court of law should never have occurred. Disclosure long after the event of what happened to cause that charge to be laid showed that it was wrongly motivated. On the other hand the tribunal should if he is found guilty throw the literal book at him.

One of the best TV shows ever made. They could do a sports version .... it would be so easy ... can you imagine sending up Bruce and BT ?

Will be interesting to see how this plays out. Bugg was publicly hung drawn and quartered before he got to the tribunal. The club offered virtually no defence and many on this forum understandably were extremely critical of the act. Now we have a star player ( a possible Demon next year). How will West Coast, the media and this forum react? Double standards is my bet.

Changes vs Sydney
Watching Sydney last night they rebound through Alir Alir. Collingwood did not seem to make him accountable. I wouldn't mind playing Tim Smith on him as a defensive forward. We have to double team Buddy.... how that works in practice I am not sure. Maybe Dec K gets a call up. Need to watch the game but from the radio Spargo was very quiet in that second half.

Looks like the Eagles will have a regulation win unless Dockers can turn it around in the second half
