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...  :)

 

 

In 100 year from now when the majority of games are played in 38 degree temperature, they'll look back at this thread and laugh their heads off.

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.

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.

You can add

11. Max Gawn - emergency - rested

14. Michael Hibberd - emergency - rested

22. Aaron vandenBerg - emergency - rested

39. Neville Jetta - emergency - rested

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

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.
