Changes vs North Melbourne

Will Jones return and if so who will he replace? It'd be a shame to see Trengove only make the one appearance and then be omitted.

JKH had little impact today but otherwise it was a reasonable spread of effort.

 

 

I think our best 22 would see Jones and vince come back in and unfortunately Kennedy Harris and trenners go out. 

So I'd say 

Jones in trengove out next week 

I'd love trenners to stay but taking the emotion out of it I think jkh offers some X factor that trengove just doesn't 

If Jones is ready, then it will be Jones for JKH.

If he isn't then I'd go with an unchanged lineup.  Been a while since we've been able to do that, and it will give us some continuity going into a danger game.

Then we get Jones and Vince back the following week.

I don't think JKH offers much X factor at all compared to our other small to mid-sized players.

He got a bit of the ball last week but went missing today.

X factor is great but you have get your hands on the pill first.

In; Jones

Out: JKH

Will they rest Gawn in light of his "soreness" ?

He is so important to our finals chances and "if" North go ruckless as they did today it may be a good strategy.

Against that he needs the game time.

On Jones .. I see no reason to rush him back but will understand one way or the other

Ruckless? Daw was good in the ruck today. He would dominate Watts/McDonald

And getting more game time onto Dom, Watts, Hogan and Viney is critical as we approach September 

I hope hes OK, His form in the first half is what has been so badly missed. Him in form wins matches.

 

Everything will depend on whether Jones comes back

You get the sense it's either JKH or Trengove who would be lowest on the totem pole to lose their spot; sentimentality I would much prefer to see Trenners stay in, but I thought both were serviceable today 

Would love to see 'no change' if Jones is not right to reward what was a fantastic team effort today

Can't comprehend how you've come up with this one. Care to enlighten me?

Harmes attack on the footy today was exemplary. Maybe a few untidy disposals but he always has a dip!

Weather looking okay for Hobart next week.

Hopefully our close loss last year means we are well aware of local ground conditions

who?


possibly give the skipper a run in the 2s next week been out a long time with the quad - run off some rust. would have been good to do it with a couple of our seniors coming back last few weeks but didnt have the luxury due to running out with our 3rds otherwise...

no change - same endeavour early and we absolutely [censored] Nth to eradicate the last decade of failures against them. [censored] hate that pissant club

Edited by jako13
huh... f l o g is censored.... wow

No change unless Jones is ready. 

If he is, out JHK in Jones. 

 

(I'm assuming Gawny is fine)

Trengove comes out if Jones comes in. Everyone knows that, right?

Im not so sure.  Who from the midfield drops back to HBF to cover Trengove?

 

I think JKH goes out for Jones. Trengove out for Vince the next week.

  • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

    It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.
