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

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

    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

    JJ has been going very well

    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.

    Not convinced by the Wied, but no changes.

    agree to disagree ?, would be lucky to make their full strength side imo when dunkley, treloar, vandemeer, mclean, wood are fit

    Id drop weed.

    But I admit I may not be very objective.

    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

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
