According to Tom Morris Hunt will be dropped.

I would assume that Frost will come in.

 

Guessing they had a conversation in the middle of the training oval like Hannan last week?

    What has happened to hunt? Haven’t seen any dash out of him.

    I'm picking three changes this week, with two because of injury concerns. One could be from left field in  Balic with Brayshaw and because of the other injury i'm thinking we might just keep Pederson against his old team and put in Frost as well.

    How it all will work, not sure, but they have talls that we need to cover........

    I heard Goodwin's interview on SEN early this week and he was effusive with his praise for Bugg, so I won't get my wish of him being dropped.

    It won't surprise me at all if there's "no change".

    Did he praise his goal kicking????

    Small forward line could backfire if we dont lower the eyes and hit targets. Nth will lap up our long bombs with ease. Goodwin addresses one issue but then creates another withPedo omission? So less petracca in middle will cost us.

    Strange decisions made again at match committee. 

    Too many small forwards (we aren’t Richmond)

    No run out of hb (Lewis and Vince don’t have any dash left)

    No backup ruck (frost will play this, but then who will play tall defender.....)

    i think we will win but not by the amount we should

    Agree on Hunt. It would be great to see him get back to his 2016 form.

    Early last year he was talked about as AA potential until getting KO'd in SA.

    Anyone else reckon this thread becomes redundant once the team is announced in the other thread?

    Each week we seem to end up with two threads essentially discussing the same thing.  Mods?

    Hunt has been the same since he knocked himself out! Either give him a rest or hoping he finds confidence in the twos.

    Still I would have gone Frost in for Wagner, and left Pedo at CHF.

    I reckon I'm batting at one for twenty-four at trying to pick Goodwin's teams on a Thursday night. I keep telling myself that he knows the players far better than I, but I've seen enough to know that Josh Wagner is not taking us forward. 

    Last year you could have said that about OMc.

    The year before that, you could have said it about Nibbler.

    Each footy season seems to bring a spring surprise.

    Watching Robbo fawning over Melissa Etheridge on AFL 360 is a better emetic than ipecac.

    Do you think he knows she bats for the other team?

    I've always thought of Robbo as the Molly Meldrum of footy...

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
