Based on the ins and no Weid you would think its Ped for T Smith and we will I would back J Smith for Lever. 

Same thoughts. Max will need a decent chop out in the ruck so I cant see a extra small coming in.

    Usually the club lists that and did for Lever but not Smith.

    Check the MFC article and it notes it, maybe not enough space for neck and ankle so they left it blank :)

    What about Peddas and Petty coming in for his first game?

    is Petty up for it? hows he been going at Casey? or is it an encouragement award of being named on the bench. Usually if named to debut you debut... but who knows

    Didnt Pedders get knocked out at the end of the VFL game?

    Thats a fair recovery if so.

    You’ll get over it, Pro.

    Jeffy Garlett will potentially be the other in, hannan we in for scans and is in doubt.

    Lots of players play the week after if it’s a isolated incident

    Nothing wrong with rewarding form.  

    I'm sure he'll acquit himself well.  I think he's probably a better option than Tim Smith.

    Do we know what on?  Was it after the game or a training mishap?

  • Quote

    If Pedo is alright he comes in for Bull, and from what I hear probably J.Smith or Hunt comes in for lever

    Suprised they listed Petty over both Frost and Keilty, but if they feel he’s up for it would be a helluva game for him to debut

    Pedo and stretch for mine, think hibberd will play levers role and a runner will come in to play the role hibberd was playing

    Just read on Collingwood BF, the game on Queens Birthday is all about celebrating one of Melbourne's former great players.

    I can't go on reading Collingwood BF anymore. These fools are tragically uninformed.

    Give them *some* credit.

    • they realise that Melbourne has former great players
       
    • they remember that there is a club called Melbourne (albeit they're not quite sure which one)
       
    • they know to go to the MCG on Monday. (Although there's always the chance that they go to G every day, having learned like lab rats that sometimes CFC is playing there.)

    BF Mods deleted my post, I don't usually get into internet fights, but a worthwhile cause this was:

    Like they say ... don't argue with fools. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

    Just heard on 7 news Mitch Hannan in doubt.  Hadnt heard anything along these lines?  Anyone ?

    Tell him, "I think therefore I am" and work it out from there.

    Just watched daniher on AFL360 just breaks your heart listening to him, he said it’s probably his last year doing this fundraising if he is still with us he might not be able to talk by then, just a hideous disease I hope the boys come out breathing fire for him 

    MND gig should be at an MFC/EFC match. He was a truly great player, better than Terry, cruelly cut short. One of those players so good that you admire them even though they play for the enemy, ie another club.

    The risk is that they actually try too hard, which can be as bad as not trying hard enough.

    I can live with that. It's so much better than the opposite.

    Huge chance for Pedders to come in and cement his spot as that 3rd tall forward/relief ruck.

    Hes been in red hot form in the VFL.  Hope he plays out of his skin the rest of the season and is part of our finals campaign.

    With teams having to put so much time and resources into stopping Hogan and T Mac, the Peddertron may get off the chain.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
