    But it’s a new season and time to move on. Jones and Lobb are players that the game plan lacked during the last five years so I am anticipating a top four finish. Looking at the suggestions for teams for round one I might find fourth disappointing.
    Danj! Yes agree mate. Good to hear from you.

      Josh is a talented footballer but doesn't have the physicality for the top level.

      Like he did with us, he'll probably have a handfull of games where he kicks a bag but will largely fluctuate between afl and vfl like a bungy jumper before finishing up at vfl level. He's still young but you don't often see players turn around their physicality. You have it or you don't.

      He'll play that 3rd forward role better than Brown and is much better suited as a decoy because of his talent. He does need silver service though.

      I wish him well but we're packed for key forwards so it was a win-win to move him on.

        Speaking to some Melbourne people re Schache.

        He's playing at Casey, most think he will purely be back up.

            TBH I think he would have had more chance at Essendon, who weirdly took Wiedemann off Melbourne's hands

              It's does seem odd, they've basically swapped Weidemann for Schache, which I think is a slight downgrade.
              Maybe they figured a change would be good for them.

                He just needed to get out of our system. Can see him at Seymour 2024.
                But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                    Yeah, I'd be happy to see Cordy (and Fergus Greene) play 22 games.

                      I never understood us turfing Greene , he looked like he had just started to come good.

                          Not good news for Lippa. Sounds like a serious shoulder injury. Wish him a speedy recovery https://www.sen.com.au/news/2023/03/...ulder-surgery/

                                It was one of a few claims you made about 11pm on 25 September 2021. I'm not surprised you don't remember.
