No. Nice way to finish with 6 goals. Ben Brown. Premiership player 2021 🏆 👏👏👏👏👏👏

Yes MFC should come out and say this behaviour doesn’t sit well with “our culture” 😀

Yes hard to see Peatling leave. Giants might lose Cumming and Perryman so they’ll use the extra $ to go to Peatling. Hes shown he’s a quality player and he will get the deserved contract and $$$. If we could get him, he would be a very good addition. But alas I think not.

For Neal-Bullen. 😭 Crows. Swap for crows 2nd round pick 25/26 - that’s light on and we get ripped off Swap for Zac Taylor - is he a midfielder or small forward - maybe Crows add in their 3rd round pick (pick 45-46) … maybe too light Swap for Jake Soligo - would be a massive steal for the Dees 😊 but they won’t let him go. Maybe we throw in Adam Tomlinson and pick swaps. Power Swap for their 1st round pick - pick 15/16. That’s fair!! We could throw in the Swans 2nd round pick to go back (around pick 38). Swap for Dan Houston 🤣 We could throw in Swans 2nd round pick.

Absolutely gives 100%. He was very good v Suns yesterday. Very good. Sung the Dees song with real feeling. He’s had a very good year. He’s a very good player. Sad to see him go. And he’s a very good club man and individual off field. 177 games with the Dees. 10 years. Life membership. 👏👏👏👏👏👏

Jeffo is not ready yet. Still in development. He’s a nice young man but needs to be more physically aggressive in a contest. Jeffo needs a huge pre season in the gym and on the park. He’s 50/50 right now. As a first round pick, he was a big investment… not just a punt. We will a little more patient.

Happy holiday Houston. 6 weeks. No attempt to tackle. Bumps. High contact. High impact. Intentional. Indeed actually 8 weeks. Bye bye 2024 !! anything else is criminal and AFL hypocrisy and AFL corruption
-
Houston / 6 weeks suspension likely 🤣🤣

Cats 🤣🤣🤣chokers !!! Cats 💩💩

6 - Jack Viney INSPIRATIONAL 👏👏👏 5 - Ed Langdon All Australian wingman in my view he just keeps on running 👏👏👏 4 - Max Gawn. Captain leading from the front 👏👏👏 3 - Trent Rivers Gave his heart and soul 👏👏👏 2 - Alex Neal- Bullen classic nibbler run and carry and 100% effort 👏👏👏 1 - Tom McDonald I was wrong I thought he was finished Today he showed he is still capable and reliable 👏👏👏 It was truly a fantastic team effort today!! apologies to Salem, Howes, Hore, Disco, JVR, Petty etc etc etc.

On today’s showing, there’s been a complete fail in recruitment. X McAdam likes to receive but his 2nd effort is non existent and tackling doesn’t try. No. X Laurie. No. Ok at VFL level but too slow at next level ❌Schache Suburban footy next year NO 🤯Verrall. No - unless he gets into the gym 🤔Fullerton I think he stays and needs to show what he can do Had good contest and like his movement Give him a go in 2025 (Moyle destroyed us in the ruck again) 👍🏻KBrown. No. Heart yes. Tackling yes. Disposal is poor. Summer in the kicking squad !!! 🤔Kentfield… give him 12 more months 💔Woey jnr has gone backwards Not sure he has the desire Must be annoyed at being sub for 6 games and often quickly dropped might ask to go home to WA 🤔Jefferson.🤔 Adams. Not there yet. Queries but must stay in the list at least for 2025. 👏👏BBB - Six goals and showed his marking ability still exists…it’s a shame he’s got no knee cartilage left. Retires next week 👏👏ANW - again showed he’s too good at this level Lowers his eyes to hit targets Was overwhelmed in 2nd half 👏Roan Steele. Like his run and carry. Oops he’s not even in MFC list 🤣🤣

Ball hits the ground. Suns take control. Repeat and play and repeat and play. Casey have ZERO midfielders. Zero. Mitch White is a half back playing as a ruck rover. Billings needs to retire. Seriously.
-
I’ve only coached under 10 and under 11 as East Malvern knights and that’s obvious!!! Who’s the Casey brains trust 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
-
BBB retirement game next week v Pies ?
-
Dees as a destination club seems to have been truly killed off. Still after 2021, Lamb has delivered Dunstan, Hunter, Schache, Grundy (Y), Billings, Fullarton, McAdam. Hardly tracking as a “destination” since our premiership. More like a salary dumping saloon.
-
It’s a shootout. Hunter. He’s retired or delisted. Disappointing this year.
-
I ranked Taj Hotton at pick 14 in the years talent pool. +He is a classy mover. Ideally an outside player but can win in his own footy. Nice sidestep evasion to get through traffic. Seems to make good decisions with the footy. Good runner and can move pace up when needs to. Versatile. Has played half forward, mid and half back. ? One query for me is his kicking efficiency due to his ball drop on kicking (like a Selwood or Brandon Walker drop) so his skill under pressure would be queried. Unfortunately his knee injury meant we didn’t get to see him in the national championships against other talented youngsters. That would have seen his intensity and defensive game more on show. He’s definitely a talented player who should go first round despite injury stopping his year.
-
Ouch. Suns by 64 points !!
-
-
Yes this is serious and it’s no time for any Hunter, Schache, Billings, McAdam type trades !! Dees need to nail this off season.

Just subscribed to Code Sports. Looks like a good website for lots of sporting info. They have listing of 50 draftees. I particularly thought this was spot on about Xavier Lindsay ⭐️. He’s a Josh Kelly type. Position: Midfielder Height: 183cm Clubs: Gippsland Power/Vic Country Lindsay’s emphatic performances for the Gippsland Power translated on the big stage against Vic Metro. With the championships on the line, Lindsay produced a best-on-ground display for Vic Country, tallying 30 disposals, 11 marks, eight score involvements, eight tackles and 169 SuperCoach points. It underlined the AFL Academy member’s well-rounded traits as a midfielder. Lindsay hurts opposition sides with his penetrating and pinpoint left boot, wins it on the inside and the outside, and defends strongly when he hasn’t got the footy. He was also a class above in challenging conditions against Western Australia, going at 90 per cent by foot and winning 19 disposals and eight clearances. While Lindsay doesn’t need a lot of the ball to punish the opposition, he has been one of the top ball-winners in the Coates Talent League competition, where he averages 25 disposals, six inside 50s, six clearances and 132 SuperCoach points. He also racked up plenty of the ball as a defender last year and played down back in the AFL Academy game.
