From Dean Bailey on the MFC Website.

“I think it’s an important aspect for us for the rest of this year - that [Jack] Watts, [Liam] Jurrah, [Colin] Sylvia, [Matthew] Bate, [Jamie] Bennell and [Aaron] Davey start to get some continuity down there,” he said.

Would indicate that Bate won't be dropped although some are calling for it, also Bennell mentioned and if Maric is to come in who would he replace?

Also can't see Warnock getting a go I think they are just letting him know he is close, same with Wonna.

Agree Robbie F.

Moloney could be a late withdrawal this week??? No inside info just that he was carrying a niggle this week. Maric might come in. Warnock and Wonna to miss.

Hit it on the head!!!

Wont be any further changes unless soemthing/someone else has any issue.

I must say, I usually have some interest on Thursday to see what the team selection will be but its less interesting when they don't actually announce any changes just an extended bench...I guess that the curse of playing so many games on a Sunday

Club still needs a small defender. Can Maric fulfill that role at this stage of his development? Play him on Lewis Jetta and see what happens. I guess we'll find out before too long.

out: Moloney

in Maric

And they could be letting Bate know he's "close" going in the other direction!

Would hardly think the ideal time to trial someone down the opposite end of the ground to which they have become accustomed to would be in their first senior game in 16 months. Hes had 14 weeks down at Casey with a chance to make himself more adaptable. Jetta would surely break his goal duck if that matchup occured.

No-one has advocated Bartram being dropped yet, despite being named in the 18. Whats going on?

Hoping to see Bate have a game in the 2's! He is becoming frustrating to watch. He needs to play to his strengths and ability, we he tries to take on players and have goal attempts from ridiculous places, brings the whole team down. Every week people on this forum are askin for Bartram's head, he's had his best season and every week he's getting the job done on the small forwards. I've heard Beamer is very unlikely to play and won't make the 22 tomorow evening. Do we bring in Maric or Aussie? Personally id like to see Addam get a crack, but we'll see what happens.

I think Maric will come in for either Moloney (most likely) or Green (less likely).

I hope for his own sake that he makes a good fist of it. He has shown nothing at a consistent level in his few previous games at the top level or in his many games at Casey over the last 18 months that inspires any confidence but sometimes players just need to be given a chance.

Good luck Addam. Prove me wrong.

dumb dumb call bate is a good player who is important for our lineup he provides a strong target around the chf region, yes he was rubbish last week but he will do a better job than maric.

I don't agree with the selection either. I think he's important to team structure on a high half foward slash wing. As a linkman if you will. I know Dunn can play this role too, but will they? Time will tell

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
