Simple reason people are asking why Lockhart   Isn’t playing is we don’t have a small lockdown defender! 

if tipinwoodi kicks 3-4 

walters vs Freo unmarked for easy goals

Well should Nev retire at the end of this year then the enduring image of him could be him putting his body on the line in a tight do or die match which we won.

I really like what we've seen of Lockhart this year so I hope him not getting a game is due to a desired match up, I would have him ahead of Smith otherwise (although admittedly Smith has looked less like a headless chook lately).

Hibbo back to face his old team, he was poor early in the year but he's come back into the form we know he capable of from about round 7 onwards.

Get it done Dees!

Smith played a really good game last week on Himmelberg who got dropped this week after his performance, other than that I think he is a liability.. I just worry whenever he is near it or has to dispose of it

Lockhart not even an EMG this week, would love the club to bring forward some transparency on what's happening with him.

Do you really expect the club to tell supporters and media about the reason why 22 other blokes are not in the squad? 

Lockhart is a mid- range player that has others in front of him, no commentary required.   It’s not like they are leaving Gawn out of the side.

?when did Lockhart become the greatest defender in history? 
You blokes are kidding yourself. Lockhart is average at best and has a habit of turning it over.  Hibbo is miles ahead of him. 

Defence looks good, midfield looks strong.  Forward line looks.....  AARRRGGHHHHH!!

lets hope the mids kick some goals!

We said the same thing about Dan Butler, who didn't score when we played the Saints, and Tom Papley, who was handy without causing us a whole lot of damage.

I'm a Lockhart fan but, apart from Smith, I'm happy with how our back line has been selected.

hibbo had 3 kicked on him by walters and everyone was saying hes not small enough for the slippery little blokes then nev had 3 kicked on him by daniel last week who basically hadnt kicked a goal all season until then and now tippa is gonna run riot pretty much unopposed. u should be more worried

Not worried in the slightest.

Agree with that! Where are our goals going to come from?

Don’t really deserve to be on season form. Ordinary.

Sure, just find it interesting given the chatter about them both recently.

Just has the look of a mid table team

I can count 7 players that you can argue should/shouldn't be in the team.

Bad memories of our loss to their Reserve side

Lots of Lockhart supporters.

Just a battler.

Surprisingly, May has also taken smalls. Cameron is his bunny

I don’t think he is the greatest defender, but was starting to play the role, and at least stayed down, rather than up for the punch!

No Jacko. If we need to gain 50+ points on the Saints we better be hoping GWS make up the lions share of them as I can't see us doing it tbh. 

Jackson is a surprise omission but fair enough, he should not be risked this late in case we win against Essendrug.

Agreed, and good disposal generally. I thought he was starting to develop and could become Nev 2.0 

One of these guys that would benefit from 6-10 games in a row to cement a spot

Jacko will play in the first final ?

I'd reckon Smith had to be in the side, so he could rotate, slipping forward for an intercept and goal or two.

Fair point '56. I just thought he worked so well with the Weid prior to his injury and is a good chop out for Max who still looks to be playing a little sore. Brown is a bit too beige for mine.

Looks like the end of an era with Jones and Jetts on the way out sadly. 
 

Positive change with Hibbs run and skills.

....and Tom and at last, Oscar.

Yes we need the Weid and Pickett to nail 3 or more each this week. They need to fire.

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’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.

  • 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?

  • 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.

    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.
