    Obviously need to replace some injuries (Hore, Petty, Tmcd) and bring back Lever and Gawn.  

    Likely ins are definitely Gawn & Lever.  Would love to give Bedford a run to show how desperately vital a small forward is. 

    Hibberd  May  Lever
    Salem Frost Lewis
    Fritsch  Viney  Brayshaw 
    Petracca  Weid  Hannan
    Bedford  Preuss Hunt
    Gawn Harmes Olive r
    Jones Lockhart Dunkley Anb

    Key missing - Jetta Melksham Tmcd Hore Vandenburg JSmith

    Zac Fisher played out the game and appeared unaffected. Low impact. Lewis cops a fine at worst despite his record.

    Agree $1000 fine at worst

    Hard to argue with that. Let's keep Preuss in.

    agreed

    (now you watch - christian always goes suspension-hunting after a pies loss...lewis to cop a week or two guaranteed)

    are we 100% sure that gawn will be right to go? will they bring jetta back despite his form looking less than ideal in the magoos?

    IN: lever, gawn, j wagner
    OUT: t mac, hore, petty

    if lewis goes then you'd expect baker would be back in or jordon may debut

    tbh i'd probably take either of those over j wagner, but they might want extra mid-size defensive coverage

    Agree with all this except Oscar. Surely Josh Wagner comes in before him.

    So delayed concussion symptoms Carlton doctors will claim, 4 weeks for Lewis?

    Gawn for Tommy and Lever for Hore the obvious ones.

    Not sure he had much of a game at Casey but I’d love to put Baker back in on the fast Etihad track and leave Fritsch at half back if Petty doesn’t get up.

    JKH?? If we have to I guess, but are we really expecting him to get another go next year?

    Yes baker back. His second half was good yesterday and I feel is better suited to AFL then VFL. 


    Could be on my own here, but I'm not sold on bringing Gawn back to play against a running team on a quick hard deck with his injury.

    IN: Lever, JKH, Baker

    OUT: TMac (inj), Petty (conc), Hore (inj)

    Try Dunkley in the middle for a couple of short stints

    Agree- Lockhart looks tired. Lack of preseason is catching up. No point in burning him out.

     

    I thought Lockhart was more involved in contests than Hannan. Id have JKH for either.

    How close is Nev to a call up? Is 1 VFL game enough? Jetta into the backline, Fritsch forward?

    Goodwin hinted at two weeks.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
