Key forward Brad Miller is back to take on the Swans, with injury forcing the Demons to make at least five changes.

Among the eight inclusions are two debutants in Queenslander Rohan Bail and Jordie McKenzie, who was today promoted from the rookie list this week.

[Whispering_Jack 28,094]

Careful.

I reckon the Swans are tanking.

Richards could have played !

[Bagdana 58]

[Geddy Lee 582]

I love you Dean.

[jacey 333]

Let's Go Melbourne Let's Go.

[BLWNBA 368]

Can't say any of this is a suprise really!

Wouldn't think that Jordie will play though, however I guess we'll just have to wait and see!

Exciting times ahead!

[Jerry Lundergard 392]

Can you imagine how much love there would be for the likes of Miller or Newton if they finally came out and kicked a bag of 5 or 6 to win us the game when we least wanted them to.

[desertfox 9]

We could have played a worse team but it should be enough to lose to Sydney who are shocking

Now all we have to do is play rookies against Freo and we may finish on less than 5 wins!!!!

PPs here we come....hopefully

[deeflog 679]

Perfect Bailey....just perfect!!! ....... :lol:

[pantaloons 2,019]

Can't say any of this is a suprise really!

Wouldn't think that Jordie will play though, however I guess we'll just have to wait and see!

Exciting times ahead!

Given that we would have paid the expense to promote him, I'd say he'll play.

Outstanding work from the selection committee. Quite simply the most hilarious team changes I have ever seen. I'm so glad the club is as keen on securing Tom Scully as most of the rest of us.

[Je Roos Salem 661]

Miller and Newton back in!? Miller needs to play the game of his life or he is gone. Same goes for Newton

Grimey out?

Hope Mackenzie and Bail play, would love to see two debuttants.

Can't believe Green is injured, where's the Scaphoid?

Can't believe they'd play Miller before Robbo.

[DeeMfc 621]

Green out with a scaphoid injury....

The scaphoid is a bone in the hand that is very slow to heal, this could be season ending.

Surgery 'now' will have Greeny fit and firing for season 2010 !!

[Pepe Dee Pew 0]

Looks like cool heads have prevailed. It is very important to ensure all young players are put under the blow torch to see whether they are up to it at the highest level. This includes putting players in unfamiliar positions to develop flexibility. This way informed decisions can be made when evaluating the list at the end of the season.

The club should be congratulated for its proactive stance on list management.

Make no mistake - this is purely list management and has nothing to do with priority picks.

The AFL after all knows all and tanking is fantasy and does not exist in the real footy world.

[DaveyJones'sLocker 599]

anyone got an idea of the record number of changes ?

[jacey 333]

Outstanding work from the selection committee. Quite simply the most hilarious team changes I have ever seen. I'm so glad the club is as keen on securing Tom Scully as most of the rest of us.

Seriously knee and hand injuries need to be taken with extreme care.
