I agree. Can't find a place for Lockhart nor Bennell who could have added the X factor.  Why was he given a contract if they don't want to play him?

As if we need x factor.

    Presumably Jetta does. Smith might get a job on one of their three tall forwards: Finlayson, Cameron and Himmelberg. Although Tomlinson might get the third tall instead.

    Smith cannot play footy 

    Even Goodwin must know that by now what a joke!

    I think Im the last one on this site who still thinks Smith can play an important role. He  just had to stop jumping over the top of May and Lever...and then spilling the mark. Personally Im glad they're giving him more games. Come for me on Sunday if he's awful .

    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

    yep

    they will take marks at will in the forward line

    So we bought Hibberd back to early for the Dockers game, just like we did Jones for the Swans game.

    We keep rolling out old injured players but we cant find a spot for Bennell?

    I like the side .

    Good balance of Pace and Size.

    The form of the club as a whole is atrocious so I'm not going to single out players who deserved to be dropped but weren't.

    The club has its back to the wall and nothing to lose so in true Melbourne style I'm predicting an annoyingly hope-building win.

    How this team has not won a flag by now is just ridiculous! Talk about compromised recruitment - Look at their Ins and Outs: how many top end draft picks in that lot?

    Hope we smash them.

    Unfortunately their selected side is probably the strongest 22 they have had in for some time and here I was thinking 9 changes meant they were dragging in untried kids but no we have 5 or so experienced players coming back! A big ask now.

    Just about impossible to win when you make a massive amount of changes, in this case 8 for GWS.   I am sure they will still beat us though.

    Down to the bottle shop picket and buy a decent Barossa Shiraz   - sip it , don't slurp it

    Forget Footy  , listen to your [censored] music - Your blood pressure will improve.

    ( Free advice from Uncle Bitter)

    PS Make that two bottles

    I won't come for you if Smith is awful.  I know that he is awful  why can't you see it.   IMO they will play him no matter what now and possibly been told he is playing the last 2 games for his career.

    The ins don't exactly fill me with confidence. Thought we had better options in  Bennell, Lockhart and T.Mac. Interesting game no one is in form. Even if we do make the 8 or GWS make the 8 we are all just making up the numbers anyway. How many chances does Spargo get? Why do they love him?

    Did Lockhart sleep with someone he shouldn't have ?

    Doubt it Loges. I've done that a few times and it never kept me out of an AFL side.

    But do they run around the ball, run around the contest and dodge tackles?

      The Demons hit the road for their last practice hit out before the start of the 2026 AFL Premiership season when they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.
