CHANGES: Rd 18 vs Hawthorn

Dunno, either no change or Vandenberg for ANB

No change, unless forced

 

Will wait til after the Casey game, but could be tempted to drop Harmes for Sparrow.

 


No change. 
 

I agree I’d think about Harmes out for Sparrow.  
Harmesy fumbles and seems to run back into trouble.  But he’s heart keeps him in. 

Harmes and AN are the 2 in question. But on tonites performance probably none.

 

No change for the next 2-3 months hopefully.

Who comes in and who goes out for our match against the Hawks?

Zero

ANB out for Sparrow?

Vanders/Melksham in for Harmes who is medi-sub?

Edited by ProperDee

Only one who could possibly go is AnB. His fumbling was horrendous but he was a bit better in the second half.

His handballs are never good either puts us under the hammer or the oppo get it

Harness, maybe, and ANB would be those under serious question, but will depend on who does what for Casey as well. 
Of course there could be “niggles” and “management”, but thank the lord that those who advocated Kozzie being “rested” tonight went unheeded. 


I can’t see them dropping ANB. The mix of smalls has worked pretty consistently all year. I’m not dropping him after one average game just as I wasn’t dropping Pickett after several.

Harmes is the only question mark for mine, and it’s just a question of if we want something a bit different in that final midfield spot with Vandenberg or Melksham. I see no point in dropping him for another like player in Sparrow.

I’m thinking no change though after that result.

Harness and Maybe? Niggles and Management I don't know these nicknames, is Maybe Maysie, Niggles Nibbler. And Management, Goodwin? ?

No change this is the best team we have got.

Do they sacrifice ANB's defence stuff for Melksham's offence upside if he tears Casey to shreds? Maybe, but doubt it. 

No change i wouldn't have thought, if Nathan Jones were fit, i wouldn't mind seeing him come in for Harmes, better ball user and more clean/one touch. 

Harmes needs a negating role or he doesn't seem to play as well, wouldn't mind seeing him run with Mitchell or O'Meara and maybe Viney the other. 

It's great to beat Port but we simply can't afford to drop any of our games against the Hawks, Suns or Crows. we need at least those 3 wins to feel pretty safe in top 4. if we can win 1-2 of the other 3 games happy days. 

On tonights form we probably go very close to winning 5 or more of our remaining games. potentially all of them.


Bring in the Weed for Spargo, one small to many!

Harmes has been very ordinary the last two weeks but at his best, he's a good player. I'd back him in to find some form over the next couple weeks.

 

Alex Nearly Bullen - out!

In - someone better, which can't be to damn hard to find.  Chandler, bedford, lockhart, the crazy looking rednut that has played a game or three, Vanders FFS.

 

No change. 
Sparrow probably won’t be sub again. Maybe Melksham sub.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
