    I was at the Captain's Run this morning. Not only did Trac train, he looked completely unimpeded, ran at full pace and looked sharp. He did every drill and there was no sign of any limp. From what I saw in the first 30 minutes there is no way in the world he is not playing.

    No bring Sparrow in and give him a go.
    Can always make changes during the game.

    PLEASE this incessant fantasy with Tmac on the wing is ridiculous.

    Its almost getting fans thinking of ways to change the team structure to get him there.

    In case any one is under the delusion that we could move a Tmac full time to the wing and succeed they do  not understand the logic of team balance or placing players in their best positions.

    Yes a player can be moved during a game and Tmac performed that role vs North in Hobart and played on the backline in place of Tommo. Great result and he could be a Harry McKay opponent at some stage on Sunday  with Petty being moved to CHF.

    Our forward line needs Tmac at his best as he kicks straight is mobile and is a team player above all else. He's playing  just fine and when it's Not broke don't try and fix it.

    For those in the "Tommy for Wing" club yes he played about 5 mins a game starting  there to get him mobile fir his forward starring role in 2018. Far different than wanting him to line up there and run all day. The team needs pace on the wing and I am perfectly happy with Angus performing that role until say Fraser Rosman or one if the other players earns a game in that position.

    Leave Tommy be the leader of our forward line and his work  ethic and Bulk plus clunk marking are proving priceless to our improvement and form in 2021.

     

     

    And I'd move Hudson to CHB and Barassi into the back pocket.

    Based on last weeks match ups Carlton are going to be looking at some significant disadvantages down back. 

    Weideman should get Plowman, who he'll have a serious advantage over,     Fritsch should get Stocker, who he should be too good in the air for   and Saad will either have to sacrifice his running game to mind Kozzie, or Kozzie could get on the end of a few. he's way too good to be as unaccountable as Saad can be. 

    Spargo and Melksham are both very smart as well and will make Docherty defend

    I want us and the doggies to win... to open up a gap on 3rd place. 1st or 2nd is no advsntage either way, while 3rd loses home ground 1st week.

    Sounds like a rumour started by the Carlton nuffies over at SEN to stir things up. They were having a segment called “sure thing” or something on Bob and Andy’s show and they reckon there is nothing more sure than Carlton winning. They talk a bunch of dribble, amongst some good content. 

    Collingwood lost again. If Melbourne beat Carlton its pretty much curtains for Coll ,Ess and Carlton for 2021. The media will be distraught. They'll have nothing to babble about except Eddie .

    Collingwood are already Curtin's, weather we win or lose to Carlton, any team who loses to Collingwood will not play finals

    Its possible (unlikely) Dees could be undefeated leading up to the Collingwood game. That could be the game we lose.We wont make the finals?

    I reckon Chandler will be an in for Melksham who'll be dropped and used as a medical sub.

    Definitely think the inclusion of Weideman calls for another ground level player.

    Sneaky chance for Chandler in for Melksham I reckon. We lose a bit of mongrel with Weid in for Jacko, so think we may look to balance it out with another genuine small instead of a midsized player like Melk.

    I'm available on a part time basis for any selectors reading

    Interesting!

    The Melk can be dropped!

    That’s amazing.  Chandler deserves a run. This is his chance. 


    I cant believe Goody actually dropped Milkshake. I thought that was impossible. 

    WOW

    PS: I think its a good call, super excited to see what Chandler can do re: pressure and we get the weed!

    Good changes

    Big fan, got some good speed at the feet of the 3 talls.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • 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?

    • 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.
