Dunno, either no change or Vandenberg for ANB

No change, unless forced

 

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.

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.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • 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?
