Out

Hogan,Pederson,Hunt,Garlett


Hibbo in the fwd line? possibly nullifying Mcgovern? or just team sheets not really reflecting positions.

If Charlie's inclusion in the starting 18 means that he will play on Sunday (as it usually does), then I know even less about football than I thought I did.  I really think he has a bright future, but to me, he has looked 'cooked' for the last several games.  I hope we don't look back on his inclusion as another costly selection blunder.

nah JKH IS A DUD. Play Hannan

Hibberd in the forward line has me bum-puzzled. Goodwin doesn't play ducks and drakes like that.
Tom McDonald Mk. II…?

Would be interesting if he is playing ducks and drakes. Hibberd to negate McGovern. Or just make Westcoast worry about it.....

Tmac said a couple of weeks back, "it's just a team sheet - wouldn't pay too much attention to it"

Hibberd and Tyson both out of position, just being clear they're named

Would say Melk and Kent own those positions and leaves 2 more for the bench... Be guessing as to who

Honestly our selection committee have some kind of man love for Spargo. I like him, but I would be bringing in anyone else after last week's performance. 

I want Kent to have a run before his contract is up and we have to make a call on his future.

I think WC may struggle to contain the smalls give their tall defenders,hence why Spargo is still playing. 


Happy to see Spargo backed in, and not surprised to see it. He made some poor decisions last week - but won't make them again. It's called development.

What a joke, Spargo keeps his spot.

I have to agree, I can’t see how the match committee feel he’s done enough over the last few weeks to retain his spot. If nothing else he just looks off the pace  

I’m picturing the bench as: Kent, Melksham, Fritsch, JKH

Against the Eagles, 

I'd place on the bench:

  • Kent,
  • Melksham,
  • Pedersen, and
  • Wagner.

I'd take from the bench:

  • JKH,
  • Hannan,
  • Fritsch, and
  • Garlett.

But then again, Hannan would be good in the team to replace Lewis at Bkpkt and Fritsh should be in for Spargo.

I think he survives because of Garletts performance, can't be playing musical chairs with the forward line. Plain and simple

I'd be amazed it Fritsch is dropped before Spargo.

Garlett frustrates me no end at the moment.  I feel as though every time we need him to perform in a big game he goes missing.  His best performance since returning to the senior side was against Gold Coast.  Even SWYL could have snagged a few against that mob.

I'd rather us play Kent than Garlett.  Melksham, Weid and Hibberd are the other ins.  With Hogan and Hunt, I'd be looking at dropping Garlett and Pedersen.  JKH survives by the hair of his chinny chin chin.

Just guessing we'll wear 

the navy blue jumper with the red back, white shorts and red socks

... and a jock strap.

 

 Spargo may well be a GOOD future player but right now.

1 He is Too Slow

2 Cannot kick more than 35 Meters which is school boy stuff.

On a fast track he will be exposed big time!

Also JKH if he plays is the luckiest player next to Spargo Currently going around! IMV

I’m a Garlett fan and still a believer... I’d like to see a final bench of:

Melksham, Kent, Garlett and Fritsch.

Plenty of run and pace there.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
