Box Hill, with the Hawks now out of the AFL finals I think they will loose a few AFL listed blokes who won’t qualify for VFL finals

They might get a few back as well. Not sure of the rules like if they played for the seniors on the weekend before. They could have warpole, morrison and shoenmakers back. I would rather play willi.

The Hawks get Schoenmakers, Mirra, Worpel & Nash back next week but will lose noone from todays game against Willy, all are eligble for finals.

I think so as well.

Not forgetting injuries to the likes of Stretch and Maynard.

I only saw the end of this game including that lovely intercept by Joel Smith which saved an almost certain goal.

Did he do enough throughout the game to be considered for the West Coast game?

That is going to make it tough. Casey will have to be at their best.

I reckon he did. Not huge possessions but his defensive work was good. Bernie, Bugg and JKH played well. Jeffy was OK and Pederson was better than middling.

I would leave Tyson out and then choose based on match up. I like the idea of Smith that frees up Fritsch to go to wing or fwd. Don't think we can have Bernie and Lewis on a fast deck...

That's exactly what I was thinking.

Agree.

If Hunt was back to his best form he would be the one at Optus, but he isn't. Something is wrong there. As for Smith, he has great potential, but is injury prone and that is a worry in a sudden death final.

My gut feeling tells me we will make no change.

We will take 2 and they will fly out on first flight after game lists lodged. Will be back Saturday night and play Sunday afternoon.

As I said , reported on VFL site

Melbourne’s travelling emergencies won’t hang around to watch the Demons take on West Coast in Saturday afternoon’s preliminary final, instead flying back from Perth as soon as the game starts in order to be rested for Sunday’s VFL grand final.

The Dees say they are planning on taking a squad of 24 to Western Australia for the clash at Optus Stadium, with Melbourne to fly on match eve as is their usual practice.
