In: Viney, Hannan

Out: Kent and maybe Tyson. If not Tyson then I think Spargo out. Hannan should play finals. He is very dangerous around the goals.

I’m a big fan of his but finals is another step up and he really does look tired. Plus physically he will struggle. Hannan is more dangerous playing up forward I think. 

If Spargo plays I won’t be upset  I just think Hannan is better than him currently

So Spargo plays if Tyson's not out? Not exactly like-for-like there.

Lets see how bad Tysons arm is first and which bone it is...  having a plate inserted might get him up for the game.

Spargo I was leaning towards dropping as he looked cooked in the 1st half,  but we have a full two week break and I liked his second half, and also we may have lost two players.

I think if Tyson is out they’ll play Trac more in the middle which leaves a hole at half forward which I think Hannan can fill very well. 

I’m not against playing Spargo at all, but I want Hannan in. If Tyson is ok he will definitely play which makes it hard to fit in Hannan as well given Viney is an automatic in.

I think Spargo is underrated a little round these parts.  He had a hand in a number of goals today with his crumbing work.  As others have stated, with Kent and Tyson both going out, there is no chance that Spargo doesn't play.

Chook got it, we won’t go too crazy with the changes I would’ve thought unless someone plays an absolute blinder for Casey. 

Spargo was much better today though someone needs to talk to him about his set shot routine. He doesn’t take a moment to breathe and relax his body.

What a great run from vanders to be entrenched in that side. Amazing.

If Tyson is done then Viney and Hannan.

JKH survives as he is serviceable and is more use than Bugg.

Absolutely agree.  He played a really good game and would be considered a lock for the 22 unless injured

He has 2 weeks to refresh, he played a very good game today. He always provides a contest.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
