    OUT: Jetta

    IN: Hibberd

    Bit worried about changing the dynamic in the back 6, but think that change seems likely.

    I truly hope they don’t sit on their laurels with no change. Sparrow didn’t do much, Nev Jetta is really struggling, and I guess they’ll keep Jones until his 300 but then he should retire. I can’t stand watching him just jogging when the other team has the ball.

    Three games.  Three wins. Reward the winners.     NO CHANGE.   How long has that been. 3 wins in a row or 3   No changes in a row.  I don’t think that’s happened for ?    Guessing 1987.

    Jones is NOT being dropped until he gets to 300, and nor should he. He’s so close and he deserves to get there. He’s more than holding his position in the team. 
     

    Sparrow for me isn’t doing a lot, but I’m not sure what his role is. So hard to judge. 
    For me, no changes.

    Sparrow out for Melksham.

    Again, not sure what exactly is his role tonight.

    I'd consider replacing Sparrow with Melksham. I know that will be as popular as a fart in an elevator, but just my view. 

    TMac has a few weeks to prove he's not just warming the spot for Brown.

    I'd be happy enough with no change though.

    I really like Sparrow, but that's a fair enough call. He put in his usual effort but didn't have much impact.

    Wonder if we could have Gus go into Sparrow's role and play Melksham more on the outside? Gus' disposal has been really poor so far.

    No change, no need unless injuries.

    Kossie fast becoming a competition leviathan.

    Just keep rolling along.

    Jones with 15 touches and 7 score involvements stays in. 

    Sparrow couldn’t get near it so he’d the only one that will be looked at imo

    Whilst a good win we need a freshen up. I would have Sparrow (no impact), Jetta (cooked) and Jones (selfish and no defensive actions) in the gun.

    I would have Hibberd and Melksham in for Jetta and Sparrow and have Jones as the sub (for those obsessed with getting him to 300).

    Agree with Sparrow but Jones frustrates me no end. Refuses to chase, refuses to take first option, refuses to play team footy.

    Sparrow will come out.

    McDonald would want to find his early season form quickly.

    Lever will never be dropped but his brain fades and skill errors cost us a few goals directly each week.

    I don't mind the idea of Jones being the medical sub to pad the numbers, although I do think it's ridiculous that it counts as a game if they don't get subbed on.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?
