I know we are still 5 weeks away from those 2 coming but I was just wondering what demonlanders thoughts were about who makes way for them.

So here's my full strength senior team and Casey team.

B: LEVER, O.MCDONALD, J.LEWIS

HB: HIBBERD, FROST, VINCE

C: PETRACCA, OLIVER, JONES

HF: KENT, T.MCDONALD, NEAL-BULLEN

F: GARLETT, HOGAN, FRITSCH

FOLL: GAWN, TYSON, VINEY

IC: SALEM, BUGG, J.WAGNER, JETTA

EMERG: HARMES

CASEY

B: J.SMITH, HUTCHINS, KEILTY

HB: HUNT, PETTY, BAKER

C: STRETCH, MAYNARD, HARMES

HF: BALIC, PEDERSEN, MELKSHAM

F: HANNAN, WEIDEMAN, T.SMITH

FOLL: KING, BRAYSHAW, SPARGO

IC: KENNEDY HARRIS, VANDENBERG, LOCKHART, C.WAGNER

I know vandenBerg is out for longer than 5 weeks but I put him in anyway.

Still a long way off before those two are fit. Form fluctuates, injuries occur and a six week injury layoff could well be ten or more going by our track record. This is a question to be asked in about 3-4 weeks at the earliest.

ill be happy if Viney makes it back the week after the bye

at the moment it would be Melky for T Mac

and maybe ANB/Harmes for Jack

Exactly my answer.

You need 28 genuine AFL standard players on your list. Viney and TMac aren't due back in ages - zero chance of someone not being broken by then.

I’m just as excited to see what happens if the Weid keeps firing. I’m a fan of Pedo (more of the underdog story over the minimal output of a key forward) but hoping the Weid takes his chance this year and makes the forward role his.

Would this see Tommy Mac go back? Would he take Frost/Lever/little bros spot?

I think Werridee has a fetish for posting Melbourne line ups every day. 

 

I guess there are far more sinister fetishes than though. Good luck to him.

Still, all so very speculative re (a) form of those playing and, more worryingly (b) the return of these two fine players.

Cmon .. you're being silly. Oliver & Gawn.

No we replace those 2 with Filipovic and Johnstone.

Petracca and Hogan sounds fair.

I think on current form.

ANB/Harmes for Tmac

Melksham for Viney

And I absolutely rate ANB Harmes & Melksham, they just aren’t playing that well atm.

If Weideman gets his chance and takes it,  the question would be where does Tommy Mac fit??? not who he replaces.

To me he's not yet a guaranteed walk up start.

T Mac plays before Weed and if he is going that well then T Mac will replace Frost.

Viney and tmac to perform for casey first for mine

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
