Out -  May, Melksham. Jetta

In -  Petty, Bedford, Hibberd

 

Sparrow, Jordon, Jones, Spargo could easily be dropped too.

Edited by Pickett2Jackson

May is potential out so maybe hibbo or petty in for him

otherwise keep the team as is

    How did Brown go yesterday?

    Otherwise Petty for May seems likely.

    May would have to be very doubtful under concussion protocols.

    I also wonder whether they reckon this game is when BBB gets a run

    It's a winning team so -     Interesting times!

     

     

    Out: May, Melksham, Jetta
    In….: Petty, Brown, Hibberd

    Hey mate, we won and we’re 4-0. It’s not a dream, I know it’s hard to believe. There’s no way there was 6 droppable players.

    Out: May

    Spargo was great. A 200IQ footballer.

    Broken eye socket, Uncle Bitters. He’s definitely gone for a few weeks.

    Think we may go small next week -

    Out: May, Jordon
    In: Hibberd, Sparrow (as a starter)

    Doubt Melk gets dropped but understand the calls for him to go

    Sparrow only played 17% less game time than Jordon, somehow.

    Out - may jordon 

    In - petty brown 

    jordon a bit stiff after a solid first 3 games but was barely sighted today, if brown isn’t ready then jordon stays, melksham seemed to attend a fair few centre bounces which pushed jordon out.

     

    tmac to play as the lead up chf which suits him and brown and fritsch to play deeper.

    Jackson floating between ruck and forward and Gawn to float behind the ball and help out the backline with Mays absence

    Yes, what happened to Jordon today? Unsighted, but he only played 56% game time. Injured?

    I'm sure some people just look at the stats sheet when this thread comes each week.

    The pressure that the likes of Spargo, Jordon, Sparrow, etc put on the oppostion is the difference between last year and this year.

    Why would you change that? Continuity is a good thing.

    Out: May, Jetta, Jordan (rest)

    In: Petty, Brown, Hibberd

    Sparrow stays sub.

    "Melksham to Brown...?!" sounds like the cry of an overwrought commentator. Sweet. 

    May and Nev out. Petty and Hibbo in.

    May out 
    sideshow in

    move Tmac back.

     

    Melksham buh-bye. In: Sparrow

    May (if inj) out - Petty in.

    Jordon looked a tad quiet - if tired maybe rotate him out for Chandler?

    Spargo's not going anywhere, he's been fantastic this year.

    Absolutely a brainy player. Sets up opportunities and tackles like a  trojan. I expect him to play all year. Beautiful foil for kossie.

    They used Jordon on a wing against Blicavs after Gus went down back, but ended up preferring Jones and then had a full midfield rotation with Sparrow.

    Melksham wasn’t good but I still think until Brown or Weid come in we need a proper forward more than extra mids.

    I think it will be 2 out of 3 of Melk, Sparrow and Jordon with the 3rd the sub.

    Petty or Hibberd depending on conditions and opponents to replace May. 

     

    Doubt this will happen but would like Melky out, Sparrow in.

    May to be replaced by Petty or Hibbo depending on matchups.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
