Melksham out I would look to bring in Tim Smith and ask him to play a similar game as Melk. Run through the midfield every now and then and play high half forward.

Hibberd out then move Fitsch back there to keep some run out of the back line. Anb to come back or maybe Ossie Baker gets a run. it may be too much of an ask to debut him in Perth against WC. it may scar him for life.

Preuss for Keilty. Dec has had a taste and now knows the steps he needs to take. let him mature some more at Casey.

Only one problem: Tim Smith is 1/20th as good a footballer as Melk is

    Viney has just done a presser in Perth and confirmed that Lewis won't play.

    That statement feels rather contradictory

    The first part -means he was close

    the second part - means he was nowhere near it....

    At least we know the boy can mark the thing. Not shy on crashing a pack too.

    so no Garlett and Trac to go with Lewis, Melky and Hibbo.

    God speed Demons.. God speed.

    Surely Oskar Baker comes in after some good form for Casey to give us such much needed pace and run.

     

    I agree, but it also might be a very bad game to debut in..

    Yes there is that. Might not be brand positive national primetime exposure!

    I think you're mixing up events. I was talking about the football on Friday night. You seem to be referring to Scott Morrison's chances the following day.

    You're not inspired by 'have a go, get a go'!

    Doubt it considering the injury list.

    Is this a joke? 5 minimum changes if true? Lever will be playing on his own at Casey on his return.

    Lachy Reid, who is a mad Demon by the way.. just tweeted that Trac is in Perth, may have got earlier flight.

    Any chance Garlett came over earlier and is visiting family in regional WA

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      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.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
