Erm, 

Melbourne v Collingwood at the MCG

MELBOURNE
In: J.Spencer, J.Kennedy-Harris, C.Salem
Out: -

 

Thought Spencil was not going to be in - and glad that JKH gets another run (hasn't shown anything at AFL level, but I seem to have a spot for him in the cockle of my heart)...

Stretch can't get a look in. Not worthy of at least a spot on the extended bench?

Precaution or mind games?

Isolate Petracca at FF on Lynden Dunn.

If Watts doesnt get up from his ankle complaint, surely Spencer will play now that hes been named in the 25.

JKH is the emergency...

Salem in for ?? (looks like Wagner)

Spencer... we'll know at 2pm Saturday if he runs out for Casey ....... unless of course there is something more about Jack W's ankle ??

I don't get it.

Goody said Spencer wont play, so why is he named?

JKH is not up to it ..... so why is he named?

Salem in for ...... ??

Have a feeling Salem for Wagner, JKH got 47 possesions in the VFL, hard to ignore that.

Salem: clearly best 22 returns from suspension 

Spencer: only ruckman, not competing with smalls for selection

JKH: rewarded for 47 touch VFL game

Stretch will be fine, and will get his chance again. Patience.

I'm guessing it all depends on the Saturday morning session with Watts.

Obviously it can't be ignored, but I would much prefer to see him do it on a more regular basis before coming back in. He always seems to come back into the team off the back of only 1 good performance

Hmmm...odd one. Can't see Wagner being omitted as others have suggested but I can't think of an another out for Salem so maybe!

if JKH is in who do you suggest is out .... my feeling is that he will be the emergency

Wagner looks visibly dejected at training. I'd say its him.  To bitter and optimistic, ill take a 47 disposal in the VFL JKH over Bugg no question.

He may be, id say Bugg though and he will play forward. Salem for Wagner.

47 touches against Coburg. Bugg offers more at AFL level than JKH.

Like what? Being a pest and missing easy shots at goal. At least give a guy who's had a brilliant VFL game another shot.

Coburg are horrible. Let JKH show consistent form in the VFL against decent to good teams first before rewarding him after one good game against the cellar dwellers. 

Buggs stats at AFL level are much better than JKH's. Plus JKH has twice the amount of clangers.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
