The defence comments are actually quite detailed. Look at the difference between the comments for Strauss (concentration), Georgiou (wrestling technique), Michie (defensive transition), Nicholson (let

We need some X factor and speed Out with the dead wood in with some spark In - JKH, Blease Out Bail, Terlich

JKH is one of the few Melbourne players in the past decade who constantly runs and is always moving to provide an option, that's what I love about him.

Terlich looks mentally fatigued.

Hated seeing him forward against the Dogs - he looked terrible!

I still think he does some good things off HBF.

JKH in for whoever.

Don't want to pour cold water (I really like JKH), but when I dropped in on training for few minutes today, he looked proppy, and seemed to have some problem with his right lower leg. He was joining in some of the drillls at full pace, but would then hobble for a bit. Unfortunately I think this means he would be doubtful for this week at least.

IMO Gawny stays out despite the 87 hit outs, Ports strength are they are very mobile and whilst their defence has been very shaky without Carlisle and Trengove I think with Dawes, Frawley and Pedersen as our tall/marking forwards we can cause them problems. A few good weeks of Blease showing form and finally a FD making them earn their spots. Michie may be considered as we are missing Cross and need to add to our midfield rotations because some of our boys need the break.

Garland Dunn Jetta

Howe Tmac Grimes

Blease Tyson Vince

Watts Frawley Kent

Bail Dawes Pedersen

Jamar NJones Viney

Tapscott, Riley, Michie & MJones Tappy more than likely the sub, Pedersen to pinch hit in the ruck when Jamar needs a rest in the forward line.

Outs: Mckenzie & Terlich

the sub must be an impact player along the lines of Blease, Kent, Bail, Salem or KennedyH. Jurrah would beat the lot!

Bugger!

Thanks.

Is there open training tomorrow or Friday. Now that I am a man of leisure I thought I might take in a training session. Never been to one in all my years.

Okay, so it seems the match committee have made a mug out of me (join the club ... :blink: )

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    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
