Out: Salem, Kent, Wagner, Weideman

In: Melksham, ANB, Stretch, Kennedy

We're a tall short there I'd think.

Time to move some deck chairs!

OUT: Salem (susp), Bugg, Kent, O. McDonald, Weideman  (all omitted)

IN: Harmes, Melksham, Neal-Bullen, Stretch, Keilty (debut)

Bugg is a chump.

Don't rate him at all.

Out: Salem, Kent, Bugg

In: Melksham, Neal-Bullen, Trengove (or Harmes or Stretch)

I know my changes won't happen, but I'd have all of my 'ins', including Stretch and Harmes, ahead of Bugg.  

I'd also give Ben Kennedy a go ahead of Kent even though I haven't named him.

Bugg missed some easy shots and goal kicking is not really his forte - technically, quite poor

I like him as a tagger - give him a job

Perfect for Ablett, methinks

Goodwin: We're not a club that tags every week but we'll certainly keep our eye on Ablett #MFCMedia

Viney did a decent job on Ablett a few years ago...drove him into the turf, if I recall...:)

Pain and memory recall are linked in the brain.

Gary's pain is 50% remembered and 50% expected.

Either that or the good lord above told him to sit this one out.

It rhymes with planking and starts with either a T or a W if that's the case.

How many over 194cm do  we have in reserve that aren't in rehab?

WELL I was right on Weideman and Kent with Salem being suspended. I have confidence in Oscar Mc  and Wagner as they at least try and put in but may not deliver to the expatiation of some as they are young with few games between them.I see a little J Hunt in Wagner actually.... Bernie Massey (37)  could play if he was available and fit...!! He was till he shrunk a tad over 194 cm...

Give Trengove a run, leave him in the middle, see how he goes.

I can't figure which is the most frustrating post on Demonland

"Give Trengove a run" v "Brayshaw should wear headgear"

not having a go kingdinga would love to see JT get a run.

Frustrating or not, I would like to see Trengove get a run at it. Last week in the VFL he had 13 effective kicks and only 2 ineffective kicks. For a bloke in reasonable VFL form, who has shown he can use the ball well, I would like to see him tried in the midfield. We have a collection of mostly wasteful and ineffective midfielders. It would be good to find another mid who can balance us out. May be Trengove, or may not be, but the group we have isn't using the ball very well. Need to try something.

Given some of the gifting currently in vogue i can't think of any player more worthy of a game . 

Chances ? B&N (not Good... )

Trengove might get his 'gift' game in round 23.

We don't seem to win games as favourites,so on that basis Gold Coast must really be favourite,they should win.The Dees like to frustrate their supporters,I can't wait for Nat Jones to come out and say stick with us. Sure as being a bunch of morons we will go along with that. 2018 draft can't come sooner,the positive our season lasted 2 weeks 5 days.I am beginning to be tearful all this emotion is just too much. Go the Dees I suppose. Does anyone know whats happened to Mitch King,doesn't seem to get a mention or Casey. Perhaps we are giving him a rest. Mind you I might have a rest from supporting this team.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
