I was speaking with a scientist friend recently who happened to mention the worst two bites you can receive in terms of possible infections are from a dog....and a human!

Crocodile ,Shark  and Snake pretty unpleasant also

salem cannot get a clean run

What does a 'çlean run'

have to do with a 'broken thumb'

What more could the club do

Than let Petracca see it through!

Is it true what the scribes and Misson say

That Viney's still 3 weeks away?

Brayshaw to take Salem's role.

Tyson in the guts to take Brayshaw's role.

Jeffy to add more speed to the forward line.

Please no J.Wagner.

You're right - it's definitely a dumb suggestion

Tim Smith must be a big chance surely. 192cm is a good midfielder size and he was  by far best for Casey, laid 12 tackles, got a wrap from the coach. This a great opportunity to try someone new. No one else rated for Casey.

Are you Tim Smiths mum @chook fowler?

He can play Hogan's role and Hogan can go closer to the square considering he is injured.

Weed doesn't deserve to be dropped. Leave Gartlett out as the balance seems ok.

I think he spends time in the midfield and forward line but the Casey boys would know better. Whatever we do against the Saints will be makeshift as most of our pure on ballers are sidelined,

Can't play with Hogan, T.Mac, T.Smith and Weide in the same side.

T.Smith is more versatile than Weideman and in better form, so he replaces him.

Garlett replaces Salem but if Petracca is fit he replaces Salem.

It would be great to give OkBaker a run....he does seem to be a goer and would probably relish the opportunity.

OK.  I like it. OKb.  Oker.

Lets hope he gets a go, this week ?

Both forward and was thrown into the middle a couple of weeks back, in a tough game.  He won a few clearances.

I think Werribee.

He may have played inside again since?

 

Maybe a bit like Hogan's or Petracca's roles. 

I think Bull, will prove to be a very valuable Demon, in times ahead of us.

 

The Weed has to stay in. 

If he gets his confidence up and starts to feel more comfortable he will be a massive asset. 

The 2 contested marks he took in the last qtr against Essendon is just a glimpse of what he might be capable of.

Thanks for the info. 

He did show a bit before he got injured last year but I did think he didn’t look fit enough. 

If he has improved his fitness and is moving into the midfield, I think he could be very valuable also..

In saying that I still think he is behind, Hogan, T Mac, Trac, Hannan and Fritsch

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
