Players that could come In would be, Sylvia, Frawley, Mclean, Jetta. I saw Stef Martin was off the ground late with an injury and obviously will have to see how Jurrah pulls up.

The Tigers might be good enough to beat us even with a few of our better players back. I would save the likes of Bail, Hughes and Zomer for the North and Freo games.

no! THIS WEEK is the real danger game.

North are a decent and competitive team. they will beat us. We will beat Freo they are really that terrible.

Thus we absolutely MUST lose this week!

The big problem is Sylvia. Eligible to play this week, but if we're tanking, he shouldn't.

In: Bail/Buckley

Out: Jurrah (inj)

If we must bring in Sylvia, then we have to drop Davey. Those two in the midfield means we might break even.

Sylvia can't go straight back in!

He's underdone after a few weeks off - he must pay his penance and earn his senior spot with a week or 4 in the VFL.

Tanking or not, there's no way Colin won't come straight back into the team.

In regards to changes, i'd like to see anyone who's under ANY sort of injury cloud or niggle be given the week off.

OUT: Jurrah (ankle), Cheney (calf), Martin (injury)

IN: Sylvia, Hughes, Jetta

OUT : MFC

IN : Casey

Oh hang on a second, the way casey are going they would beat the tigers....back to the selection table :D

Ahhh, he has done his "penance" with been out for 3 weeks.

He would be fitter than most of the side - given he has 3 weeks to get over sore spots & has been doing extra tarining sessions due to not playing.

If Martin Is out we could bring In Spencer as our 2nd ruck.

TANKING AGAIN are we :angry: .... GO DEES FOR A WIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Richmond looked pretty good today. They will be keen to make amends for earlier in the year.

Richmond are better than Sydney.

We are no chance.

From the small amount of posts I have read it seems as though we played pretty [censored] today, and I saw the Richmond game and they played well. I think we will lose by about 30 points so lets not stress.

Again, the angrier you get the harder it will be.

Disappointment would be a better emotion, it'll help you move on.

Remember we're doing this so you can have two shiny toys to play with instead of one. Toys that will help us win lots of games of footy.

True Believer - "But I want to win games of footy now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Ok, big guy.

Can somebody get True Believer 'AFL Premiership 2007' on the PS2?

It'll keep him occupied...

How confident are you? Don't kid yourself, the Toigs are a terrible football side, helped by an out-and-out champion who is still capable of stringing a few games together. My concern is that they'll drop off again having won a good one. Are they good enough to put two together? Will Cousins back it up? Will he get injured?

Only one change for this week.

Colin in, take your pick out.

If the past few weeks are a precedent we'll probably have someone suffering an unexpected injury late in the week.

If Cousins plays like he did against Essendon yesterday, we'll struggle but I don't want to give too much away because I think I'm doing this week's match report.

Sylvia should have 1 run at Casey before returning. Why rush him in? Will play against Freo.

Not sure on how bad Jurrahs injury is but if he is not 100 % dont play him!

Would like not to make any unforced changes.

Need to look at certain players that are on the fringe before the season ends and that includes a few from the team yesterday.

Richmond will get confidence with the win they had, they have played decent for the last three weeks now.

5 weeks of pain to go! Short term pain...Long term gain!

Come on Dees!

Yes he can.

How about OUT: MFC

IN: WCE (as substitute) expert tankers against the shockers on weekend!!!!

Don't get complacent. They've had their win and will be happy with themselves.

Port was great against the Lions and then served up slop against us. Bottom teams do that. Bulldogs 07.

It's a critical 4 weeks.

Have your pick for INS. OUT: Davey

Posted

Sylvia will come back in....

I want to see Rohan Bail, Simon Buckley and Danny Hughes get a run.

Especially Hughes. Think he would be quite good in the seniors.

If anyone is injured they should be rested.... any niggles at all.

Perhaps Bruce and Davey could have a bad stitch!!

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
