The future has almost taken control of this team. Sometimes injuries aren't such a bad thing

Liam to be super sub

Isn't it great to see this young team up and ready to have a go!! Can't wait to see how they gel together. There could be some out-of-position, some being-bumped-off-the-ball easily, and some tired legs late in the 3rd quarter but we get to see our list on display, and hopefully they can take the game on.

And please, Dean Bailey, do NOT start the game with a spare man in defence, and play Watts in the forward half of the ground.

Jurrah for the sub - I hope. This could be a wake up call for him PLUS he could wreak havoc with fresh legs in the last quarter.

I really want to see Strauss get a chance to show his foot skill.

I really want to see Howe play his naturally attacking game.

I really want to see Gawn making life difficult for Ryder and Bellchambers.

I get to see Scully running again.

And Trenners returns with his skill nad poise.

I feel like Big Kev. I'm excited!!

Talented exciting young team on paper, but we are in for another belting . Let's hope we let the shackles go a bit more this week

Lets hope not. What I really want to see is Strauss, Morton, Bennell all lift their intensity at the hard ball. No room for footsteps this week.

We've made more changes than I expected, given we were already so inexperienced. It's nice to see Trengove and Scully back though, and seeing debutants is always interesting.

However, I reckon we're missing ~11 best-22 players. The good thing is that of those who I don't think are best-22, all bar one are young players who could plausibly push their way into contention.

I also like the fact that Blease is an emergency, as I think he's the type of player that could be very damaging.

There's no way LR will be the Sub...A extra forward is needed on the bench... And Scully will be the one subbed off for one of the other three boys.

Agree, but with Warnock out I'd assume Watts will play a Maxwell type loose defender role, and Frawley and Rivers will take Hille/Ryder/Bellchambers.

Four debutants in 3 weeks! Good grief, they'll all need to start wearing name tags to get to know each other.

4 in 2 weeks plus 2 potential first gamers as emergency!

We could chalk up quite a few first year players by the end of the season.

In fact we have 5 players in the team tomorrow who have played 2 games or less! Thats almost a quarter of the team!

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
