So the powers that be maybe have decided that Melkshams ongoing lack of tackle is analagous to playing a deep full forward and having a three headed monster in Tmac, LJ and BBB. 

Wow that's a tall forward line - not quite WCE tall but still v. tall.  Granted BBB plays more as a leading forward. 

Excited to see how this affects the balance.

    Hopefully there are zero rakes in the forward 50 or this could be trouble!

    Weather forecast turning sour. Rain and strong winds possible Sunday afternoon.  Having 3 talls could backfire on us. North will relish it. Havent Sportsbet heard of Bass Strait and Tasmanian weather.

    I bet alot of money is going on North this week. Poor weather and sympathetic umps might keep them in the game.

    So much for sunny and 22.

    Should have moved the game to Marvel.

    TBH the main reason I'm glad he's playing for us is that he isn't playing for North.

    Sometimes, in my darkest moments, I get flashbacks to North surging forward with Brown one out with OMac in the goal square.

    We can finally watch us play that mob without the crippling and entirely rational fear that he's going to kick 10 goals on us.

    From the forecast I just read, medium chance of showers (0-1mm) and 15/20km winds. Not too bad I would’ve thought.

    You need to fight against your MFCSS Siam. A changing weather forecast is not going to derail.

    And in case you hadn't noticed, North are terrible.

    As per other posts, weather is looking Ok on 3 forecast sites including BOM.

    20 degrees , slight chance of a shower, cloudy with some sun,, winds 15-20 km/hr in the morning but lightening winds  in afternoon.

    I'd be confident that there is hardly any money being bet on North this week.

    If at  the  G or Marvel i wouldnt waste 10 cents on North.

    But its down inTassie. North always lift against us. First quarter should be telling either way. Fine weather and we will win.

    Well done BBB - who makes way??

    Purely a guess: I suspect Chandler won't be the sub two weeks running, so Chandler out and Jones as the sub as a way of managing him.

    I reckon Norf won't even score over 40 this week. It will be around a 100 point victory this week no one wants to give up there spot.

    Hoping its a bend over no lube type operation.

    BOM forecast - It is OK - Forget all other sites info.

    Yep...North are terrible alright but so are Melb against North in Tassie.

    Melb now have a much better team but im not overly  confident . If Melb win by 3 goals iD take it now.

    The line is 57.5 points or something ridiculous if anyone was taking North it would be that not H2H

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
