    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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
