    ANB and Melksham stay in after having 0 influence on the scoreboard and also defensive pressure.

    Hibbered missing after ankle soreness. There was whispers before the game last week he would potentially miss due to his ankle. They play him on Walter's and he kicks 3 goals and wins them the game. We had a fit Lockhart and Jetta ready to go.

    Hope we get absolutely smashed.

    Agree with all of that except the last sentence

    Must have played a blinder in a scratch match somewhere in last few days. Got me beat. We have a shocking/pathetic forward line HOWEVER we have played well at the Gabba so there is some hope, maybe.

    There forward line will smash us in the air. And when it hits the ground Green will beat us. Not confident. Im sure Goodwin is throwing darts at selection. He has no idea who our best 22 are

    How the hell does ANB get a game. It is a joke of a side.

    They have made 8 changes and not many sides win when making 8 changes but GWS will put that to the sword on saturday. Pile up your fridge and get ready for the Goodwin thread.

    Changes are very beige granted they probably right some things that didn’t work last time. 

    Gee TMac is on the outer. Hoping Nev can show them what it means to play every game like its your last.

    ANB you can forgive being first game back, Melky.... not so much even with the  tagged role he played last week.

    Yep and I’m going to the game so that will be fun. 
     

    I know I’m lucky to be able to go to a game by bloody hell its the first time in a long time I’m not looking forward to it or excited to be going. 
     

    Sad but true.

    It is obvious to me that he is injured.

    Sorry Dazzling I have blocked out the previous week... Yeap he’s very lucky.

    Unless Harley is injured you’d think they should get him some more game time this season ahead of the ANBs.

    Dropping Preuss and Bedford is the right call.

    Replacing Preuss with Brown rather than TMac is justifiable but questionable. Have to query where TMac is at.

    Replacing Bedford with Spargo is fair enough, it's not like Hannan was in any better form when he was in the side.

    I love Neville and am glad to see him back but there is no reasonable way he should be in front of Lockhart based on 2020 output. It doesn't make sense for us to be naming Lockhart as an emergency if he's injured or unfit. I do not understand the Lockhart omission and continue to disagree with it.

    I'm happy with the selections. It's not an inspiring lineup but the players currently out of the team were all given chances and didn't perform. Swapping all of our forwards every week doesn't help anyone, so I'm glad to see slightly more continuity.

    I envy you for being able to go demonox. Even if there are games here next year I doubt we will be able to go.

    Smith and ANB given games makes my blood boil. Jetta should have played last week in the wet conditions. Selection is a joke and has been all season.

    He has to have some sort of injury.

    Does Nev go to Greene 'titan'??? he's got the physical strength and game smarts, Greene is not lightning.

    Surely we wouldn't play Hunt or Salem on him.

    Maybe Smith but I hope not.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
