Hunt is part of the back 6 that is absolutely humming and he gave JJ from the dogs an absolute bath tonight

Rubbish. Weid last night - 6 disposals, 5 marks, 1 tackle, 2.1 goals Brown (at VFL level) - 4 disposals, 0 marks, 2 tackles, 0 shots at goal We've waited so long to build a genuinely co

If Langdon is ok, no change. Weid took his chances and even melk laid a tackle or two.

So it was Langdon?   Subbed off in the dying minutes?  

IF so then they must surely think has a 2 week injury.

Would be a huge out.  Who would replace him on a wing?  Maybe Hunt??

But as to changes -  Melksham mostly bog ordinary but it takes a lot to have him dropped.

looked like a dislocated finger? maybe, if i was to guess

changes: 

OUT: Hunt

IN: Bowey/Lockhart

its tight for spots you have to play well to stay in. and you'd think we're ok for finals from here so why not see what one of these boys have got in them. weid would have been in the gun first half but got on the end of a few later on

We just played our most complete game of the season against a team most predicted to beat us, on a ground they dont lose at.

So, pending Langdon... NO CHANGE!

Absolutely.  Hunt was also important.  Played his role.

A few struggled at times (Weideman, Jackson, Hunt, Melksham) but no one played so badly to warrant being dropped IMO.

No change unless injury.

(if Langdon's out next week vs Brisbane that will hurt, big time).

jj's not a forward, just been shoved there to fit him in, don't think he really challenged hunt to defend him at all. hunt definitely didnt do anything the other two boys couldn't do and on current form i'd back them to offer more offensively this week. if it doesn't pay off in a couple weeks theres always the option to reverse it. but we need to keep the senior boys accountable and show the guys below that if you're in form we will reward you

Out: Weid, Langdon (if injured)
In: B.Brown, Baker

In some ways I'd like to keep Weid in to build his confidence, but at the same time it's important to drive standards, and Brown deserves a chance to build confidence in the 1s as well. Looking forward, Viney comes into this team but I have no idea at who's expense.

No change unless Viney is ok, but I have no idea who to drop to let him in.

Backed the dees over 39 points.

He shanked a shot to make it 42 points. Then his next two kicks, both of which should have set up scoring shots, were dead set clangers.

Id still drop him. One tackle. And 10 half jogs and coraaling.

Four possessions is rubbish.

Sure 3 goals, but 2 were gifts. And he dropped mutiple marks that he should have swallowed

    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

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded.
