How did Brown go yesterday?

Otherwise Petty for May seems likely.

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

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

In: Petty

Spargo was great. A 200IQ footballer.

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!

 

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.

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.

Loose and poor all day

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
