Changes For Next Week

Featured Replies

Out: Dawes, Bail, Toumpas, Spencer, M. Jones, Howe, Stretch, Salem (inj)

In: Hogan, Viney, Jetta, Jamar/Gawn, ANB, Watts, JKH, Newton

EDIT: Forgot about Salem injury.

Edited by Clint Bizkit

 

I wanted Toumpas to have at least a month, but he can't play next week.

Bail and M.Jones should be forgotten.

Stretch to go back to Casey, not ready.

Howe dropped or at best made the sub.

Jones (M) was okay. Would rather drop Tyson.

 

It's a tough one because the following players all need to be dropped/given a spell. I've also included Salem (injured).

Salem (inj)

Toumpas (forget the draft number guys, he's not up to it)

Stretch (not up to it yet)

Dawes (poor form)

Bail (not up to it)

M. Jones (not up to it)

Brayshaw (needs a rest)

Spencer (not up to it)

That's 8 players. You can't make 8 changes. And we don't have 8 genuine options to come back anyway.

Worrying signs.

Dawes should be the first one dropped

Gave the Hawks ammo during the week with his stupid comments and then serves up this [censored]

Hes a dud anyway, always has been

Pedo is twice the player


Dawes has got to go. Pedersen is miles ahead of him.

In: Hogan, Viney, Jetta, Jamar, Newton, Kennedy-Harris, Neal-Bullen, Gawn
Ou: Salem (inj), Bail, M.Jones, Toumpas, Spencer, Stretch, Dawes, Howe

In: a bottle of tequila

Out: care factor for season 2015

Yeah. Confidence==0. I really believed 3-figure crushings were behind us. 2015 looking very very shaky.

Edited by wretched.sylph

I will have a go anyway.

Ins. Watts, Viney, Jetta, Jamar, ANB, Hogan

Outs. Salem (inj), Toumpas, Stretch, Spencer, Brayshaw Dawes

ANB sub.

I agree except Brayshaw, he's probably in our top 5 for effort.

Also add Howe - doesn't give a fuxk

More Titanic deck chairs in and out

In: Hogan, Viney, Jetta, Jamar, Newton, Kennedy-Harris, Neal-Bullen, Gawn

Ou: Salem (inj), Bail, M.Jones, Toumpas, Spencer, Stretch, Dawes, Howe

This.

Would anyone be against putting Dawes up for trade come years end?

It's a joke that a kid who has only played 6 games is already so much more of a better player than he is. Whilst Pedersen is a late call up and has done more in a single game than Dawes has all year.

Sadly our lack of depth (and injuries to many of our best 22 - no excuse for the depths of insipidness today) will prevent as many changes as their should be.

Actually agree with all of these. Axe needs to be swung.

Howe has checked out. He can go.

Wanted Toump to get a run at it but he's not even remotely close to competing at this level.

So like Frawley last year, doesn't even show the self pride to disguise it.

Not really - the problem is, who would take him?

Perth Demons in the WAFL need a tall Wiseblood

Neeld signed some magnificent contracts.

Dawes and Clark were just awesome.

We all thought it was the coup of the trade fortnight.

See even us geniuses can be wrong sometimes.

We haven't genuinely improved for 9 years, does it really make any difference what players we swap week to week now?

 

Howe must have an offer on the table for next season because he isn't playing like a player showcasing their talents for a new contract. He needs to find form or pull on a scorps jumper.

Jetta has been sorely missed, and Salem getting hurt is a huge blow. There just isn't enough talent burning up the vfl for spots to allow the axe to be swung like it should be.

Howe's total stats for the past 2 weeks

8 kicks

3 marks

2 tackles

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
