So who can we bring in?

Is wonna fit? Maybe a sub?

A quick midfielder would help.

I'd drop both Maric and Jetta.

    OUT: Jones, Maric, (Garland if injured)

    IN: Gysberts, Wonaeamirri, (Macdonald)

    We need Jetta's speed, despite how bad he was today.

    Bailey out? Get a grip, the players are the ones who should hang their heads in shame after that third quarter. Nothing Bailey could do when the game is played in Hawthorn's 50.

    Maric was average yet again. Would be surprised if he survived.

    OUT - Maric played fantastic pre season but when it counts FAIL

    IN - Gysberts, because he proved himself last season, and he is proving himself in the VFL. & We need someone like Wonna, so Wonna is back in also.

    Not happy at all with Melbourne today, MFC are lucky not to lose by 20 goals, thank the football gods the Hawks could not kick straight.

    its baileys job to make sure the players dont get complacent! make an example of players who make silly errors. when i played footy, if you made a mistake you were dragged and spoken to. simple.he is responsible for player behaviour. he is the coach.

    I'm sorry, nothing he could do?! He is the coach and has been working with them for 3 1/2 years! Why do you think the game was played in Hawthorn's 50? Lack of good planning and structure.

    Jones won't get dropped, don't ask me why, he just won't.

    Maric shouldn't be dropped, horrible choice to use a forward pocket as the sub.

    Yeah right. There is nothing in what he says that inspires. The team would start a qtr, any qtr better if he did. I'm yet to see one since he's been in charge.

    Worse sides than us play better from a coaches inspiration.

    Jones is no good, I cant believe how many opportunities he gets for a senior player..

    Gys for Jones

    Wona for Petterd

    Petterd???? Oh boy.

    Maric barely had a chance, he was subbed on while the hawks where well on top. And whilst on got a bit of the ball.

    Maric a proper chance to prove him self.

  • Quote

    Maric barely had a chance and actually did a couple of good things with some hard running in the last quarter. Can't drop him on the basis of tonight. Whose stupid idea was it to use a forward pocket as a sub???

    Out Jetta - made too many mistakes at crucual times of the game.

    In - Gysberts or Wonna if either fit enough.

    If Garland is injured how about Tom MacDonald? Please, pleae, please no Juice!!! Icouldn't stomach this.

    Out Jones, Garland, Maric

    In Wonaeamirri(super sub), Gysberts, Newton(try him down back, we've seen enough of Macdonald and Warnock) One question though. Why has Warnock stalled after looking so good a few years back?

  • Quote

    I spoke to Cale Morton today before the game and he said he was banging down the coaches box to play this week, said he will definately play next week

    INS - Morton, Wonna, Macdonald, Gysberts

    OUTS - Maricc, Garland :( , Jetta, Jones

    Consider yourself very lucky Grimes!!

    How bad is the Garland injury?

    For me Jones continues to struggle in his primary role as an inside midfielder. I'd drop him and bring in Gysberts. We have to start to develop more options in the middle because we clearly don't have enough. Bail has been very good this year in that role, and Gysberts showed glimpses last year. He had a good game in the VFL by all reports, so he's in.

    If Garland is badly injured then McDonald comes in. We can't afford Rivers and Warnock in the same line up IMO.

    Maric could get dropped for Aussie, but I suppose he deserves more than 1.5 games to prove his worth.

    In: Gysberts, McDonald (if needed)

    Out: Jones, Garland (if injured).

    Lucky we are playing Brisbane next week!

    Edit: after reading the above, Morton comes in if fit. Bring in some class!!!

    Gysberts for Jones

    Newton for Martin (I hate Newton but surely he offers more than Martin, especially with the new sub rule)

    Wonna for Jetta

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
