    Harmes needs to go. 

    Jetta and Jones did pretty well.

    Hunt should feel nervous with Hibberd now fit.

    Rivers had a shocker but keep.

    Harmes was woeful. Disposal appalling. Sparrow didn’t do enough. 
     

    Depending on fitness Viney, Melksham and Hibbo will all push their claim.

    Harmes out please, lazy lazy game

    Goody put harmes as a Fyffe tag in the last 10 minutes. He was ok but if he doesn't tag he's out. James jordan embarrassed a few out there today.

    Doubt you can play Jetta and Hibberd in the same side. Even if they both have more ability than Hunt. 

    Melksham and Viney - both needed in the 22 at their best, both ordinary if they aren’t on. Sparrow and Jones the most likely outs I guess? 
     

    Harmes had some stinking moments but I feel like our midfield covers the ground far better with him in there. 

    Also want to give Chandler a chance sooner rather than later. He has some class. Can we play him on the wing?

    I only knew Fyfe was playing when he was giving away free kicks (paid or not paid)

    Who’s moving to half back in that scenario? Melksham?

    On balance No changes for mine

    They'll be better for the run

    Give the boys who got the job done a chance to do it again

    I thought most did their part today .

    However, Viney must come in if fit.  Milshake will also probably get a gig.

    I thought Hunt was ordinary today. I know he has pace but it's not much use if he doesn't get a hold of the pill and breakaway or lay some rundown tackles. Can't recall Sparrow doing much either.

    JOnes and Jetta will not and should not be dropped. Jetta won a lot of 1:1s today and was very solid down Back

    Sparrow, Jones and Hunt the clear three contenders to make room for any potential inclusions IMO. Harmes wasn't fantastic but I don't think he was anywhere near as bad as people are suggesting. 

    If fit, I'd consider Viney and Melksham for Sparrow and Jones. Hibberd could maybe take Hunt's spot. Yes there's a speed loss there, but Hunt made so many mistakes today it might still be a net win.

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
