Agree re Garlett. Hard to know how to judge that game. he did kick 3 but critical errors prob coast 3 more. He stays for now.

But too early to dump JKH he wasnt our worst. Id give a Hannon a week off instead as he clearly wasnt ready. Preuss played a shocker on the weekend so I wouldnt be picking him either.ย

GCDee ?? ย Spargo stays in??? ย No way


Out O Mac, Frost, Stretch, Wagner

In May, Lever, Hore, Salem

otherwise know as a Defense transplant.ย 

Frost stiff but donโ€™t think we can play hore May lever and Hibbo with him as well.ย 

Given JKH has not played a senior game this year I didnโ€™t think he was too bad. I actually thought Spargo wasnโ€™t that bad either. At least they try and get the ball at a contest, unlike you know who.ย

No way T Mac will get dropped

Youse are all kidding

He should be though, he's offered nothing all season. Or move him to the wing, but it looks like he's lost his running capacity this year.ย 

In: lever, may, hore, ANB, Salem (all best 22 so not just reactionary to a loss)

Out: tmac, omac, Wagner, garlett and stretch. Fritsch moved up the ground to try and find some form.

TMac still carrying the foot injury. Red line him for the season I reckon.

I suspected there would have to be at least one fool suggest Frost be dropped. If Frost were to be dropped, which wonโ€™t happen by the way, there would never have been a player dropped previously that has come off such a solid bank of games. Last nightย he soundly beatย Tex Walker, a 400 careerย goal kicker, and you want him dropped. WTF.ย

I actually thought Spargo was decent.....


The idea of rushing back players who have been out for long periods is just nuts.Season is gone, so stop the bloody desperation selections and only pick players on form.

Hannan proved it, and JKH to a lesser extent.

May played well, so he deserves the recall. Lever has not. I really hope he plays at least once more in the 2's to find some form.

Dont risk underdone players when the season is already over.ย

Frost has been excellent all year in a Blitzkrieged Backline. In fact I reckon he will be top 6 in the B&F !

Serious question, but is there a compelling reason to go to this game? Collingwood home game, any general admin tickets go to their coffers. Weโ€™re also likely to lose.ย 

I feel this could be an 80-20 crowd split this game.

I'm not going for the reason above and as a protest against Goodwin and the insipid culture of the club and this playing group.

Also if suggest not risking lever and may now that there is nothing to play for. Why not ease them back over three or four weeks?


Out: One trick pony Viney, Omac and JKH

Get along to Casey where we play the Pies on Sunday. Good chance of a win and the bacon and egg rolls are wonderful. :)

Jesus.

Viney finally starting to find some form. Last game he looked fitter and able to do more and last night I thought he was one of our best.

I suspect Hannan and Kennedy-Harris were brought in one week earlier than planned so that next week we can bring in another tranche of formerly injured players. Hannan didn't look ready but Iย thought Kennedy-Harris was good. It is questionable whether it is wise to bring in all of Salem, Hore, May and Lever - 4 defenders - at once, even though all of them deserve their place in the team. Nevertheless, given where our season is at, I would bring them all in and omit O McDonald, Stretch, J Wagner and Spargo. Fritsch finally gets the chance to go forward in place of Spargo.

Spargo could count himself unlucky as he was much better than Hannan, but he (Hannan) needs a second game before we judge him too harshly.ย 

Neal-Bullen, if he's ready, will have to wait another week. It's not like he has been dominating when he's been in the side and I think four unforced changes at once is enough.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
