That's a stronger team than I expected. Looks like the older guys rested: Lewis, Gawn, Vanders, Jetta, Hibberd

I took the liberty to change the positions around for the starting 18, left the bench as named.

The backline without May, Hibberd, Jetta and Lewis seems pretty weak, but there's enough in the midfield and forward line to put in a decent contest.

I noticed that - I took it straight from the article.  It looks like they did it for the first few and then gave up and just stuck any old names in there.

    Fritsch should get number 2 and play on the wing...  :)

    But they will be playing JLT’s on Heard Island in summer by then.

    At least it will be above water.

    The AFL are probably beholden to their broadcast partners and therefore this is not an option for them.

    If the AFL is beholden to the broadcasters, they're not partners. As I've said before, "broadcast partner" is a horrible expression. It is blatantly a false statement. "Broadcast overlord" is much more realistic.

    What are you talking about only Lewis has been rested?

    Still looks like a good side even with the 4 outs. J.Wagner must lift last chance to impress the selectors. I think we will by 12 points even though the tigs have a strong list.

    The “outs” and how they appear to be tracking:-

    1. Stephen May (hamstring) — due to return to full training shortly. 
    2. Nathan Jones (hamstring /ba ck tightness) — should be fit to start the season. 
    6. Jordan Lewis — rested? 
    7. Jack Viney (ankle surgery) — should be fit to start the season.
    8. Jake Lever (ACL surgery) — hopefully will be back training with the main group in about a month. 
    12. Toby Bedford — not selected.
    16.  Kade Kolodjashnij (adductor) — available to play Round 1 but more likely in the VFL. 
    18. Jake Melksham hamstring) — due to return to full training shortly. 
    19. Mitch Hannan (knee) — return in the middle of the first half of the season. 
    27. Aaron Nietschke (ACL surgery) — season 
    35. Oskar Baker — not selected.
    37. Kade Chandler — not selected.
    38. Tim Smith — left training early on Thursday. 
    43. Guy Walker (shoulder surgery) — return date not available.
    46. Austin Bradtke — not selected.

    They better have stringent drug testing then.

    I'm not convinced the so called "emergencies" aren't playing! Waiting for confirmation from MFC of final selection.

    65 pints! That's heroic! I usually pass out after 15.

    The biggest challenge will not be driving up the highway or standing in the heat, but it will be avoiding the Richmond fans who are up and about again. Just say over and over again to yourself ""this is just a practice game, this is just a practice game, and it does not count.."

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
