After training today, expect JKH to play, and Hannan to be out injured.

Bugg to be emergency.

Hannan with injured group.

Can you elaborate? Was he injured from the start of the session or did something happen?  Is it possible that he is being managed like gawn was the week before? Any additional info would be greatly appreciated. Provided a lot last week. JKH has proven he cannot stand up to the pressure of AFL football. He drops the easiest marks and cannot finish inside 50. Bugg worth a try. He holds his marks at least.

At the airport feeling a bit crusty after Friday arvo work drinks turned into a bender at the local watching some classy girls jelly wrestling. 

I’m not as pumped as last week but still can’t wait to see the boys at the G.

Melbourne here I come. ??

Haha no rest for the wicked!

That's a bit of a bomb to drop without anything else to give, what do you think he injured? Was he visibly in pain or simply leave the track early?

I thought JKH was unlucky to be dropped.

Or was he injured?

He was with the rehab group 

 

Decided to catch the red eye flight out of Perth tonight in order to get back for tomorrow. Don't let me down redlegs. ??

True,  but if he misses tomorrow he should be fresh as a daisy for the Elimination Final.

He was great vs West Coke.

No, JFK was dropped after the Sydney game because he’s not good enough.

He lacks composure (see the miss late in the Geelong game), can’t take a mark when there’s inferred pressure and doesn’t have any point of difference as an AFL player.

Hannan out today would be disappointing, however I can’t recall him playing back to back good games, particularly this year.

So is Hannan In or not???


JKH should stay in the 2s and never to return, would rather see Bugg come in.

You clearly recall a different Bugg to any that has played league football. Goes hard but limited in everything else.

We won’t know until this afternoon.

There’s only been speculation so far, which appears to be based on “trained with the injured group”, which has plenty of other explanations that don’t involve missing this game. 

Two emergencies held over sounds like late change.

    Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
