I think we'll need a better plan than this to encourage players to Step Up if we're ever to get truly serious ?

I think this looks like jeffy's 2018 step ladder.  Note it's brand new showroom condition.  unused as yet jeffy.

 

Has McCartin ever played against us? I’m thinking maybe once at the G, but he always seems to be out against us. 

 

Breakout game alert. Big 3.3 coming up...

So why did they “rest” their most consistent midfielder and arguably their best!? Weird [censored]!

Plenty of the old  "list-management" going on, in 2018.

He’s has never had the chance to be one of Oscar’s b*tches.

 

Not sure if CP and Hogan play or if we win or lose, but playing them without Nick and Joey is a big plus for us.

Hopefully Hogan plays. I have never known him not to click against this mob.

So are you thinking they need to drop all 3 or just 1? Is leg speed your issue? 

I think leg speed is there issue but I also think they are needed to lead and direct on the ground. 

I would have one of either Lewis or Vince in the team at any one time. Jones would be in the team as Captain although I believe he is not a great captain during the game quarter to quarter 

i want to see more speed through the middle. With them there I see us as one dimensional at times. 

 

If we can’t beat the saints by at least 40 points we are kidding ourselves. I really hope they come out with some intent to physically crush these muppets from Moorabbin.

He's actually played a couple of stinkers v's the Saints.

2015 - 7 possessions 1 goal - MCG loss

2016 - 10 possessions 1 goal - Etihad loss

 

Granted the other 3 games he played against St Kilda he averaged 5.

It's the Lions he has complete ownership of.

The idea of a legume calling the admin a spud is doing my head in

They will come out all guns blazing trying to prove they aren't the rabble everyone suspects them to be. Weather the storm in the first quarter then put the foot down. We should really be winning this one comfortably.

This would make a great thread title. Just saying.

"Hopefully Hogan plays. I have never known him not to click against this mob. "

Acres is a big out for the Saints! He normally plays very well v the Dees...

Hogan and Petracca I don’t think play. Hogan is banged up and needs a week off! Petracca hasn’t touched any footballs this week and needs the same. This will be highly beneficial in the short and long term for the season. 

I will be shocked if either play. This is where Melbourne need to play 100% fit players. It would be a smack in the mouth to the players on extended interchange who are listed to replace these two.

OUT- Salem, Hogan

IN- Garlett, Tim Smith Or Pedo

I would like to see Garlett play high forward midfield this week. Pace around the stoppages in the centre and wings give us x-factor. I like Sparky in the F50 as our crumping player.

Tim Smith or Pedo play inside 50. I think Smith gets the nod here...

He does play well against us. The one game he missed against us (rd 1 2017), we beat them.

The double negative strikes again.

This page just got DEELUDED as all F...

I didn't want to start a new thread, but given it's St Kilda v Melbourne playing this week, it's an appropriate time to ask the following: Is Carl Ditterich the only player in VFL/AFL history to have played with two clubs twice? That is, Carl played with St Kilda, then Melbourne, then St Kilda again and then Melbourne again. Has anyone else done that?

PS: This game should be played for the Carl Ditterich Cup, which should have a nice, white headband attached to the top.

This confirms my confirmation bias that jnr has a small problem with comprehension.

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
