I’m surprised about Jetta and a little disappointed. But overall it was always going to be hard to replace our best forward and our best defender.

    Happy to see Mitch brown in - in the last two games last year he took 20 marks

    hopefully he clunks them tomorrow too!!

    Me too but I’m happy to see both petty and hibberd in.

    Petty officially back, well deserved.  Getting ahead but if he can impress the next couple of weeks it will make selection interesting upon Mays return.

    Thought Jetta had been pretty good, not fantastic but still really solid. Don’t particularly  like 3 changes to a team who has been so settled. I suppose 2 are forced though.

    No chance.

    He's cooked, he can't move. They're not dropping him after going 4-0 if they're confident on his return to form.

    'Dropped' due to injury. Didn't train today, clearly named as emergency in case he's right in time and is needed.

    We must continously fit players into the team, not let them wilt on the vine because we hesitate with team selection out of little more that conservatism. We are to go places, instead; real depth, not perceive depth, is critical to that aim. Give the talent games, and thus keep game-day performances at a level of competitive excellence. Pay for footballers should not be a series of sinecures.

    Good ins, it shows our depth is impressive 

    Happy with the 'ins' as well. Also happy to see Daw as an emergency - he could be really useful and unsettling for the Hawks.

    Good selections, Hibbs has experience and needs to cement his place, reads the ball very well and will back up Lever for getting to the ball drop.

    Petty for his contested marking ability. Has been in the system for a while, and could work well under General Lever. 

    Mitch Brown to give us a leading target, hoping for 2 to 4 goals.

    Majak must have been close as he is the emergency.  

    Our balance still looks good. The depth we have is fine.

    Go Dees.

    Getting to the stage where you'd have to think that players like Lockhart and even Joel Smith are ahead of him - with players like Bowey waiting in the wings.

    I still don't like our forward line. Fritsch, Weed and BBB out is a massive blow. We have got by with 2 out but 3 might be pushing it.

    Lockhart, Hibberd and Bowey maybe - Joel Smith will probably never play seniors again

    I believe Jetta may not be 100%. His family has been sick so he may be a little unwell. 
    Either way, I hope to see him back in the side soon.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
