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.

    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.

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

    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.

    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.."

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
