Fitzgerald....

My apologies Fitzpatrick.

Can't blame me, not like I actually saw him on Friday to be reminded...

    Possible ins and outs for me, on a like for like (or at least similar roles/positions) basis ...

    Green vs Sylvia (Sylvia has had a few games back and shown nothing, he needs to be dropped. Such a shame he won't have a chance to play in the VFL.)

    Martin vs Fitzpatrick (No brainer, if fit)

    Jurrah vs Petterd (I'd pick Jurrah as the designated sub-off, and move Petterd to sub, to give him another small chance to show something after last week's poor showing.)

    Watts vs Bail (We need Bail's run. Notice that our form has mirrored his form over the last month. He provides us what we need; run! He has runs on the board from a few weeks ago, and should have another chance. Also, with Clarke and Howe in good form, and Jurrah back, we can live without Watts up forward for now.)

    Blease vs Bennell (I'd give Bennell another chance, we desperately need run and carry through half back and the middle, and he was showing this recently at VFL level. He needs to get his AFL confidence back. That said, Blease will give us run and carry too. We will definitely look a better side if one or both of these guys can find form and confidence.)

    So Clarke to do backup ruckwork? Not great.

    Also, a bit harsh on Bate, I think, whilst leaving Sylvia in!

    Jurrah in, fantastic to have him back in the side.....

    Have to keep Bennell in for a few weeks imo. He's still a potential player in my book and a player with pace which we lack. Selecting him one week dropping him the next is counterproductive. Its not like ANYONE bar Clarke and jones is playing that well at the mo . Whether by game plan, confidence or talent, Bennell is far from on his own. Give him a few weeks.

    Couldn't be much happier with those changes.

    Three disposals against WC and 4 last week speaks for itself. Pace and skill mean nothing with no ball in hand. He tackles feebly.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      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 REPORT: Geelong

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

    • 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.
