So who can we bring in?

Is wonna fit? Maybe a sub?

A quick midfielder would help.

I'd drop both Maric and Jetta.

 

Bailey out.

 

OUT: Jones, Maric, (Garland if injured)

IN: Gysberts, Wonaeamirri, (Macdonald)

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


 

Out: Jones, Jetta, Garland (injured)\

In: Gysberts, Wonna, Macdonald.


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

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.


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?

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!!!

Edited by Jaded

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

    Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
