“Dunny’s probably a little bit similar [to Brayshaw and Lumumba] – he hadn’t played a lot over the last couple of weeks as well.

“So they’re three that from a fitness point of view, we were able to leave out, based on the form of some of our current players.”

 

He's not ready to play, in the eyes of the coaches. Neither is Brayshaw. Neither is H.

You don't know better than they do. Neither does that other idiot claiming he wont buy a membership if Dunn doesn't play.

BUT he's been named emergency! You aint gonna name him as emergency if he aint right therefore he must be right!

My advice Lynden.... You are a much better player than Frawley Much Much Better so mate Check free agency !

If I were him I would be livid!

I'm sure many clubs out there ( Freo) would love your services!

This will come back to haunt us!

Matt jones is a liability and only makes this side worse... How he still gets a game is beyond me??? Is he Paul's love child?

I've been a massive critic of his, but he was good in NAB challenge and he can play that negating half forward on those dangerous half backs.

Apparently Paul Roos and Simon Goodwin know a bit better than a few members of Demonland, crazy.

I find the reactions here intriguing.  We've gone in with basically the same side that won 3 NAB games and played great footy.  Shouldn't they be rewarded?

With the new interchange rules the last thing we need is to play guys who are underdone and we run out of legs in the last quarter.  I think they've played it very smart and selected the right side for this game.

Is it a full moon? People forget to take their meds? 

Far out, settle down some of you. 

Couple of players left out due to match fitness. Footy these days you need 100% fit players

This is the biggest thing, why change a winning team by bringing in blokes who may not be 100% fit.

I think non members shouldn't be voicing their opinions anyway! 

Especially when espousing loyalty!! Lol

I'm loving that centre line.  

The three Vs, rhymes with Dees.

A new year, judge him by what he does not what he did in past years. His speed will be welcome, just his disposal and defence need to be kept tight.

In what universe and on what planet is does Oscar Mc Donald get a game in front of Lynden Dunn???

Answer?? NONE!

I'll Say it!

THIS IS THE WORST SELECTION DECISION OF ALL TIME FMD!!!!

I'm livid, this is potentially a game changing decision

If Dunn is right then he plays, Absolutely no question!

Huge Huge gamble and massive fail in my book!

Oscar Mc Donald FMD!

 

We're into our 3rd year under Roos. He isn't silly and and especially now we're competitive and on the up. Good game to debut but  even though he looked so-so during NAB, so did rest of the team at times yet still won.

We're no basket case and hes obviously proven his spot in the team internally.

3rd year, Trust Roos!!

Totally agree Oscar was a liability in all 3 nab games. He can't stick tackles

Not to mention that he turns it over as much as his brother.

The guy is 28z he isn't going to suddenly change into an asset. Let's hope this is the last game he plays for the club

Actually the most important selection isnt even in this game. It's Trengove playing tomorrow. All dees fans have our fingers crossed for you Jack. Good luck. We just want to see you back in the red and blue.

Personally i'd prefer to see Frost play at CHB and O'mac play as the second tall forward

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
