Lots to like in this.  Some great ‘welcome back’s’ and one important ‘welcome’!  Looking forward to them all getting through safely, and pushing for senior selection.

Lever? Thought he would play a half to 3/4 quarters.  Queens birthday??? Unlikely !!

I dont want Lever in the seniors until his form is good. "OK" form isnt anywhere near enough to justify his return.

A fit-but-not-in-form Jake Lever wont be the difference between us playing finals and missing out IMO.

Let him earn it. Properly earn it.

I think HE pulled the pin on a Darwin return.

I hope the club hasn't penalised him for that.?

Pretty solid looking team now we are getting players back.  Great to see May and KK named.

Club said very clearly that #8 would take the week off from all football activities to get his ankle right.  Sensible I would have thought.

That's fine, but don't go putting him in the senior team until he has played a couple of consecutive full games at VFL lever.

This one is a tad exciting as a warm up to our Darwin game. Might be well worth the trip out there weather permitting. Quite a bit to look forward to.

Anyone have any info on why Sparrow has missed the last two?

Torn meniscus. Has had the operation, will be out a little while though.

yep.  2 games in VFL, rest him up and get him right for QB. our defence is a debacle, we need a steady head back there to organise us 

would be exactly 12 months since he did it

We'll have Lewis, Lever, May, JKH, Weed, Preuss, K Dunk, ANB

all pushing for a spot from next week onwards.  finally some pressure from below

the 22 in Darwin should be out on notice and fire up!

Did we pick these blokes up in the mid season draft? I have not seen them on any playing list before.

more touches and tackles than Lockhart, Garlett and Hunt. actually more tackles than the 3 of them combined 

admit he is not playing well but he is a kid finding his way and I reckon given some continuity and backing he will improve

You have to do more than tackle DD. if you are a forward the idea is to get the ball and hopefully score not to stop someone running off with the ball you should have had in the first place.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
