    Autopsy Round 8 vs Melbourne Demons

    Credit to Logan, I thought he should have been dropped but he played well - he popped up when we needed him as well with important goals. Agree with others that in some ways Curnow is playing a selfless role by extending the length of the ground. There are weeks he will have opportunities and...

    Sometimes players need to go to a new club to find a work ethic that didn’t know they needed. Part of it is the player realising it’s probably their last chance and part of it is probably the new club bringing the best out of them. It doesn’t always turn out this way though - often the...

    Then he helps free Papley up. I’m loving how our forwards help each other even when it is not their turn.

    Preview Rnd 8 Vs Dees Sun. May 3 SCG 15:15

    Logan will want to play well this week. If McLean and Ladhams again have good games in the reserves, you’d think one of them will come in.

    Player Watch #28 Will Edwards

    Watching the highlights, he is still very raw - but you can see how it can all come together with time. A bit of LRT in his endeavour (different style of player granted). I like that he plays within himself. He knows his limitations. He can get more expansive as he adds more strings to his bow.

    Player Watch #6 Logan McDonald

    I don’t think it is an obvious decision either way. On balance, I think Longmire had a tendency to stick with what was working and it sometimes led to ruts being created. And I like what Cox has done with rotating our KPDs. For this reason, I’d err towards a stint in the reserves for Logan to...

    Player Watch #28 Will Edwards

    I don’t think the collision with Norton should be a suspension, though it was clumsy. I’m sure the coaches will speak with him about having a bit more awareness and care. I don’t mind the commitment on debut though. People calling for a suspension should remember it also could have gone...

    Player Watch #6 Logan McDonald

    Here’s my take: 1. What would Roos say. Sure, McDonald is trying, but is he really trying? I don’t think McDonald has yet discovered what desperation truly means at AFL level. 2. There are so many advantages when you pick on form. You reward effort and performance in the reserves, which...

    He is an out and out footballer and a ridiculously quick witted one at that. He sees the game so well and executes with class. Also loving the effort he is bringing. Lots of chase and haranguing.

    Player Watch #6 Logan McDonald

    He certainly is a conundrum. Last year my view was that he is most likely a defender but you have to give him every chance first to prove that he isn’t a forward. His injury return make it hard to judge but he is leaving a bit to be desired. He just seems to lack sharpness and aggression...

    Analysis 2026 - The Way Forward

    I’m not sure we are giving the team enough credit for the improvement in the handball skills. It wasn’t long ago that handball and run was one of our biggest weaknesses (along with physicality). The fact that handball is now a standout strength and that physicality is no longer a weakness...

    Autopsy Swans get their kicks by 66

    Maybe I am misinterpreting what you are trying to say, but Amartey takes a lot of marks on the lead. McDonald is on their third best defender. There should be opportunity.
