We can’t continue to carry both Harmes and Melksham, I agree with your ins/outs. 

Disappointed in Harmes so far after reading good reports on him during the off-season. He came back in great shape having shed some kilo’s. 

Doesn’t help he’s been asked to pinch hit in the ruck, from what I recall he injured his shin in the north game doing just that

    Biggest problem with Melksham/Harmes neither have kicked a goal. If we had capitalised on our chances against Hawthorn in 1st quarter it would have been game over same as the Roos yesterday.

    It's taking all of my powers of self-control not to respond to this post in the fashion it deserves.

    Glad to see you’re outraged as well PD

    Where the FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF is the teams?

    I assumed they were going to be released at the normal time of 6.25pm EST. 

    I agreed earlier with GNF’s changes however am tossing up between Weid or Balic being the in. Stretch, Hunt and Tyson being the other ins.

    I think Tim Smith must be seriously in the frame.. i did hear a little whisper late last week.. didn't play Casey.. can anyone clarify if he is in fact injured? 

    Isnt this the game last year that Rance kneed him in the ribs?

    Would have struggled to get a game anyway in my opinion.

    Unless something dramatic happens I can't see him on the list next year.

    I think he will only play now if injuries mean we are desperate for a tall option.

    He got a 2 year contract extension until end of 2019. He ain’t going anywhere

    My guess it:

    In: Stretch, Weids, Tyson, Hunt

    Out: Lewis, Bugg, Frost, one of: Harmes/Melksham

    Makes sense to me.

    Stretch and Hunt for speed. Weeds for a focal point, Tyson for clearances.

    That's an improvement

    I believe it is!  Maybe they want to give him the opportunity of returning the favour...!

    Teams released at 6.25 pm the night before the game when neither team has played for well over a week.

    The AFL is run by retards.

    You mean “persons with intellectual disability” surely.

    Or idiots....

    Dare I ask, but did we tank it last week knowing we had 9 days and 5 days break? Knowing we had the premiers and presumably wanting to hit them hard on a big stage? Or was there enough failure in the forward line and the lack of scoreboard pressure to explain the horrible performance?

    Balic is injured - hammy tightness. 

    I wonder if Stretch is a clear in or designated emergency?

    Frost has been mooted as being dropped

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
