I will vomit if someone suggests JKH for Jones. 

I recommend you take some kaopectate.

JKH needs an extended run in the VFL. If no one else is omitted due to injury, as others have suggested, Jones out and Gawn in. 

He's been there for a few weeks? In awesome form as I'm sure you're aware. You hated his early season form that much?

Gawn in for Jones, don't we go in a bit tall?

You have my vote ET I was just responding to your challenge.

 

Maybe the West Australian could announce that Zac Jones may line up for the dees on Saturday night if he overcomes a strained quad muscle.

Not if Kennedy plays. Their talls killed us pre-season. 

On JKH, I don't think he fits into our game style. He's too soft.

At AFL level Stretch will offer more than JKH

Like for like, why wouldn't we go Trengove for Jones?

this is the perfect opportunity, and why they kept him on list.  JKH and Stretch are outside players.

 

agree... Eagles are big bodied and tall. Need Watts in. Need Gawn back.

Jetta  T.mcd  o.mcd

Hibberd  Frost  Salem

Hunt  Viney (c)  Melksham

Petracca  Pedersen  Anb

Garlett  Watts  Hannan

Gawn  Lewis  Oliver

Tyson  Bugg  Harmes  Vince

emerg. Stretch  Wagner  Spencer

Key outs ... Hogan, Jones, Brayshaw, J.Smith

I'm concerned that the Jones article mentions Hibberd is sore and might not get up for the game! Looks like Wagner will get a recall

I am sorry but I think it is time you checked yourself into Arkham, you gone Loco.

alright you're all hilarious with your memes (good-natured tone)

everyone bagging Frost being dropped, anyone care to say the tall they will drop? Crush O Macs confidence? Peedo is killing it. T Mac undroppable

Yeah. OMac, TMac and Frost on their talls, sure. Frost wasn't playing in pre-season, and OMac wasn't in form. Also we've done well in the forward line without big boys. Scoring heavily actually. I'm pumped to see us run rings around their defenders.

I get your concerns about his hardness. He's no Jones (who is?) But I'm not sure he's "soft" whatever that means. I have a feeling Goody slots him forward as the negating defender as a reward for his good VFL form and Hannan, Vince and others slide up the ground like they did against Dogs.

Interesting stuff though.

If Watts and Hibberd are fine to play Saturday, who do you omit for Gawn?

Gawn for Jones should be the only change, the formula is working at the moment.

Heard Ox say there might be a smokey this weekend. Source Brett Anderson who i think is a Dees fan .

Could it be Maynard? 

Hes racking up touches for Casey and from all reports he is hard as nails.

You may be on to something, HB.

Who'd da thunk

4-6 ...Chunk !! :(

Maynard looks really good would love to see him at afl level early.

Has that explosive speed to get out of congestion, fairly poised under pressure and could've kicked two goals on weekend but just missed.

But most importantly he is hard at it and will definitely add to our manic pressure game plan.

Tim Gossage just reported that he'd be amazed if Kennedy plays.  Said he thinks he'll miss at least 2 more matches.


Would love to see Salem spend a bit of time in the centre with Jones out 

Out: Jones

In: Gawn

Easy as that I think.

Misson says he expects Watts, Hunt and Jetta to all get up. No mention at all of Hibberd - where has that talk come from?

Bummed about Jones though. That's interfered with my mood more than any injury has this year including Hogan. Not because he's the best player but because he's not supposed to break, feels like it's upset the universe a bit.

Lewis/Salem/ANB/Trac get more midfield time.

T Mac stays back, Pedo fwd/2nd ruck

Frost stiff

if Watts injured Frost stays in

Frost out, you are kidding.  He has been fantastic this year

Yes it does feel like that indeed! How can Melbourne play without Nat Jones, it will be very odd not having him out there. Hopefully the Hibberd stuff is just rumour. He played the last q pretty strongly did he not?? Unless its the dreaded General, general soreness...would certainly throw a spanner in the backline.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
