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 ??

    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

    I'll ignore it because his afl games have been totally sub standard.

  • Quote

    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

  • Quote

    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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.
