MATCH PREVIEW AND TEAM SELECTION - ROUND 22

Lynch's argument was that Brisbane's top liners in the midfield were at least the equal of Melbourne's or arguably better. To illustrate he asked Roos to name Melbourne's best midfielder, to which he eventually said Jones. Lynch responded with Beams being Brisbane's best. Straight off the bat you can see that he has a point. I love Jonesy but when he's named as the best midfielder you're not off to the most intimidating start.

 

Wouldnt give up Jones for Beams.

Their stats are almost identical, the difference being that Jones is a leader while Beams is not.

Lynch is kidding himself if he thinks their mids match up to ours. We have one of the best midfields in the league.

They are bottom 4 for a reason. No team with a great midfield has ever finished bottom 4.

No, it's not the truth at all, at best it's your opinion. One obviously not shared by the medical and conditioning staff.

Well, of course its an opinion, what else would it be on this forum. Club Meds also have opinions on when someone should come back once an injury has healed. They then pass those opinions onto the selection committee about their likelihood to reinjure, level of conditioning and any residual pain.

So i guess it was just a co-incidence that all 4 players that recently returned from injury have really struggled then? Don't like the odds on tbat

Watts back in 2's

Salem in 2's

Gawn by his own admissions was average until recently

Viney played well against port and has been very average since despite his undoubted courage. Now has another foot injury caused quite possibly by compensating for the prior foot injury

Just a quick question,  if there's meaning in the voices, is it still psychosis  ??

Great opportunity for the Demons tomorrow to win heavily against one of the bottom teams who traditionally don't do that well in Melb mid winter outdoors! If we could have a big win aside from pushing us one week closer to a finals spot, could also start to build some momentum for a decent crack at winning a final.

Plus games into Jones, Hogan, Brayshaw & Vince after injuries & suspensions will be a plus. Putting pressure on Watts, Salem, Bugg & co to really fight for a spot in the team.

Re Lynch, there a good, bad & delusional  commentators, he's obviously had too much sun living up North!

Go Dees, don't screw up & we have & know how, but go out & win by ten G's tomorrow!

 

So just to clarify - if we win tomorrow, we definitely play finals?

No but we would be a 90% chance.

If we absolutely smack them by 12 goals...

The Eagles would have to do something similar against the Crows in Perth next week.


We need to all but seal the deal vs. the Bears. I'm not concerned that the Collingwood players will lift to farewell Buckley, but they will play as if free of him. Their list is more talented than their game-plan, and if they decide that there's no fun to be had in circle-work and choose to go direct we could be playing a dangerous, unaccountable beast.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
