    With the above - happy with the changes overall, although I reckon Lockhart is a little stiff.  Thought he had been pretty good.

    I like the Brown inclusion as is smart enough to just play his role, and can do so up the ground away from Weideman.

    Bit mystified by the Josh Wagner inclusion, and same with Oscar, although Oscar coming in might mean we push Tomlinson back to a wing.

    Rivers has speed.

    Looks like we went with some experience, though.  Jones, Gawn and Brown bring plenty to the table in that regard.

    On the face of it...

    I don’t like it.

    Lockhart dropped?! Horrendously harsh IMO, the more so given he was surely a good match up for Butler.

    Aside from Rivers.... so much for the "bringing in some pace/speed" call.

    Lost two players with a bit of toe for one.

    Saints will be licking their chops here and while we are always a chance, they 'should' win this one with relative ease me thinks.

    No idea what Lockhart did wrong to be dropped. Agree that we need an extra tall down back given Saints are quite top heavy up forward. Brown can’t do worse than Tmac and Harmes, well maybe if they played him in a correct position he may perform. 
    Overall a big meh and god help us if we get smashed, as I suspect we will.

    Don’t really care much for the game, until Goodwin goes we’re going nowhere quick. Just looking forward to seeing Browntown kicking a back.

    Saints will belt us using the same method as every other time.

    Speed, non stop running and 100% defensive effort.

    Reckon this is a 40+ point loss coming up, and the heat will be right back on the coach.

    Might be his last chance, bin.  

    Saints play a tall forward line - they have named Battle, King, Membrey and Marshall there, with Ryder in the ruck, so I can understand his selection and our need for a little more height down there.

    But with him OOC at the end of the year, he might get a few games here to show us why he deserves another contract.

    I have it on good authority that Tmac and Harmes have been put on JobKeeper

    With the season and possibly Goody’s career on the line, this is a mind boggling selection.

    That is the most utterly disgusting team we have picked all year. The ins include slow wet wags, I like the way they drop Lockhart and don't bring in someone to play on Butler. What is going to be. Tomlinson ?????? St Kilda would be wetting themselves looking at that side.

    Happy with the changes.   
    O Mac to the resting ruckman 

    May to King

    Wagner deserves his chance by the sounds of things and surely can’t do any worse than what Harmes has been dishing up.  I’d also rather Rivers over Lockhart

    O.Mac, Spargo and J.Wagner in that already 3 passengers. Worst side we have put in all year.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
