Please don't play Viney as tagger on Steven. Put someone else on him. We need Viney leading the attack. 

I think those days are gone....


I think we'll be too hard and hungry for the Saints either way.

We're riding a wave at the moment and I think we're irresistible at the contest. 

We're playing really inspired football and our young players are hungry for more.

I don't know why they do this but the AFL generally issues an injury list on Tuesday afternoons which usually turns out wrong. Here's the Saints' injury list - it looks pretty healthy

Leigh Montagna (hamstring) Expected return TBC

Nick O'Kearney (arm) Test

Brenton Payne (shin) Test

Nick Riewoldt (ankle) Expected return TBC

Dylan Roberton (knee) Expected return TBC

Source: The injury list: round six

I wouldn't bother with the one they put out for Melbourne - better to wait for the inaccurate one the club puts out on Wednesday night or Thursday.

WJ I am surprised you even look at these lists they have been  rubbish for as long as I can remember.

Look at the game against the Tigers everyone knew Deledio would be very unlikely to play.

Tigers were all positive till game day then he comes out.

The  lists are BS.

I don't think they're BS, I just think that they reflect the inaccuracies and vagaries of injuries and recovery. Every Tuesday they put down a marker and call it an "injury list" - but it's a moveable feast.

Interesting though most 1st gamers get told mid week as it gives them that couple of days to organize family tickets and more direct focus on the game and potential opponent's.

Moveable yes but a feast it ain't 

The details are shown to try and confuse other teams but they have little to do with the actual.

I can see Kent kicking a bag! 

You sadistic so-and-so. What did that bag ever do to you to deserve such pain? :(:)

Agreed!  Not even Bugg would be THAT unsociable!  LOL

Looking forward to seeing Petracca debut. Still think Oliver and Matt Jones will also come in as we will need fresh runners. 

Not sure who goes out.

Now I reckon only Oliver will join Petracca. Brayshaw is one likely out but the other ..... no idea unless there is an as yet undisclosed injury.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
