No, absolutely happy if there's no change.

I almost forgot about Bail (emerg's), as Strauss is playing well.

"Gee but it's good to be back home", on the 'competative' street.

There's two players in the emergency list that absolutely deserve a game but can't currently get one. Love it.

Geez I'm excited about this week.

Garland, Frawley, and Warnock are making it hard for Rivers...

And I love Jared Rivers.

Maybe Future Garland to do what Bruce does now, and there is a Future Rivers...

You gotta love the fact that usually a thread like this is buzzing with complaints or congratulations at the selection committee as people see that we've made 3 or 4 changes.

When we name an unchanged line-up it's just not the same.

Not if Rivers meets Future Rivers.

There'd be a tear in the time-space continuum and the universe would cease to exist.

Best to keep Rivers at Casey and play Future Rivers in the 1s.

Which Universe? The Universe where Melbourne are ordinary - That has already ceased to exist!

I thought he was an umpire.

Bail very unlucky not to get his spot back... was absolutely fantastic in the first four weeks. Didn't get dropped, couldn't over a corky in time. Thought the bloke that replaced him last week might make way - thought wrong on that

fair thought, martin did enough to deserve a spot but if it had've been any other week bail's efforts in the first few weeks could have trumped him.

this week though - 50 point win over 2nd placed side, combined with nth play 3 ruckmen.

Any team that has an in-form Rivers and Bail listed as emergencies is a team on its way to the finals. Surely.

And, to think, Morton, Jurrah and Wona are probably due to return in the next month to six weeks. Cannot believe how hard it is to get in this side at the moment.

That's not to mention Tapscott, Gysberts, Strauss, Blease and a few others.

Guess which Warnock brother has been dropped this week? I think that says it all.

Stop reading my thoughts...

Random thought of the day:

If we win, Western Bulldogs beat St kilda, Carlton beat Collingwood and Brisbane beat Sydney, then we'll still be out of the 8 despite us being 4-2.

And that would be the definition of a log jam!!!

Yeah this could be a possible ladder at the end of the round:

Brisbane 5-1

Geelong 4-2

Sydney 4-2

St Kilda 4-2

Collingwood 4-2

Carlton 4-2

Fremantle 4-2

W Bulldogs 4-2

-------------------

Melbourne 4-2

Port Adelaide 4-2

Wouldn't that be something?

Then at the bottom you'd have Richmond and Adelaide winless, West Coast with 1 win, one of Hawthorn and Essendon with just 1 win and the other with 2 and North with 2. So there'd be a fair gap developing already.

For structure alone I like Martin in the side.

Bail will get more opportunities.

    PREGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    The Demons return to the MCG to take on the Saints in Round 11 on the back of two straight losses in a row. With Jake Lever out with concussion who comes in and who goes out?

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak
