    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.

    • 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?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’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.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
