Agree Chandler looked a mile off. Sparrow to replace him 

 

I reckon we need to give Chandler a run. Loved his over the head handball to Spargo for a goal. Dropping him after a week won’t be great for his long term confidence.

In a winning side, playing against a lower side, Chandler gets another week to find the pace of the game. 

Melk was sub, so needs to perform at Casey to push back in.

Chandler another week unless Viney is ready ahead of schedule 

 

Chandler has to get another go. But if Jackson is fit - who goes?

 

I was all for getting BBB but he is slow and very clumsy at ground level.

Yeah does LJ come in for Weid or Brown or Chandler?


No change. You can’t drop a player after one week. 
Viney needs to be 100% against the Dogs. 

Any idea how far off Jackson and Viney are? 

no change, unless those guys are fit. 

if they are 

Chandler, Weideman out 

Viney, Jackson in

 

I liked the idea of Chandler but I think he makes way for Sparrow.

It will be interesting to see if Jackson is available because I did like what Weideman brought to the team.

IN: JACKSON AND MELKSHAM

OUT: WEIDEMAN AND CHANDLER


I'd be tempted to move Tom McDonald up to the wing, get Brayshaw into the middle to help with Clearances and keep Weideman, Jackson and Brown all forward when Jackson is back

Yep. Move our best forward by far out of the forward line. Brilliant.

I expect Chandler to be given 3 or even 4 games. It seems consistent with Goodys changes. The only difference was when Mitch Brown came and went and Id say that Mitch was well aware of his backup position. Id also think that Majak would be under no illusions if he got gifted a game. Different for youngsters and seasoned veterans.

Given he regularly played on the wing when he dominated in 2018 and spent the entire pre season training for that role i'd probably look at knowing what i'm talking about before getting too sarcastic ?


Viney and Jackson are best 22. If fit they both come back in.

i thought the Weid was competing with TMac. Reckon its actually one of the Weid or BB. 

If the club consider Chandler best 22 potential then he deserves another go.

I think it best we go no change unless Viney needs a game before we play the dogs

Nope sorry, l don’t think you do know what you’re talking about

Actually you don't know what your talking about.  Firstly he didn't play on a wing in 2018 except for brief periods he played as a permanent fwd.

Secondly Goodie has stated ad nauseaum at every presser that McDonald will stay forward & not go anywhere else.

And move Lockett to CHB and Hudson to full back.

I'm shocked how controversial this is, McDonald trained during the pre season as a wing, his strength was his ability to run hard forward and provide a target. and also push back and help the defense. 

he's doing something very similar now, it's just his starting position is slightly different, he regularly pushes right up the ground and runs forward hard.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
