MELBOURNE

INJURED:

Luke Tapscott (concussion) test

Rohan Bail (knee) 1 week

Michael Newton (foot) 2 weeks

James Strauss (broken leg) season

Jack Grimes (foot) season

Jake Spencer (knee) season

ON THE BLOCK: 

If Brad Green wasn’t captain then surely his recent form would deserve a VFL spell. Maybe it’s time for a different role. Matthew Bate failed to make an impact.

ON THE CUSP: 

Cale Morton, Colin Sylvia, Matthew Warnock, Sam Blease, Neville Jetta, Liam Jurrah

JON ANDERSON’S FORECAST:

 

Warnock deserves a chance against the Eagles. Sylvia is clearly in Melbourne’s best 22 so presumably his axing was for other reasons. Don’t think it would do any harm for Jurrah to have an extended spell in the VFL, but he played well for Casey. It’s time to give Blease a continued run in the seniors.

What about the Russian?

    That's not such a bad injury list for this time of the season is it.

    Better if you follow the melbournefc.com.au site which has Rohan Bail in for a test which means he could play for Casey this week. Aussie can't be far either and it looks as if the Russian will be back!

    Rohan Bail (knee) - test

    Michael Evans (back) - season

    Jack Grimes (foot) - season

    I'd have Bail up against West Coast.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
