    Looks to me like Vanders or Jordon for Viney, Weideman on standby for TMac.

    Harmes named on the field just to troll everyone who made the laughable suggestion that he’d be dropped. 

    Oh come on Nasher, it was hardly laughable to question whether he had a good game last week. Just because you disagree doesn't make it a ridiculous suggestion.

    I'd go Jordon for Viney and vandenBerg the sub. But it wouldn't be ridiculous to try Melksham in Viney's role, with a greater portion of time spent in the forward line.

    Weideman the late call up if TMac doesn't make it.

    J Smith named just to frustrate me.

    I’d bring in Vanders for Viney, let him play his 50th in front of a crowd.

    Meanwhile West Coast has made a big statement by dropping Xavier O'Neill and putting Waterman, Hutchings, Rotham and West on their extended bench...

    But seriously, if Vardy plays (and I think there's a fair chance he will, to provide ruck support for Naitanui who will blow up after 15 minutes of trying to follow Gawn and Jackson around the ground), I hope we're into him from the first bounce. For whatever reason I cannot and won't forget him mocking Gawn after Ryan took mark of the year on his head in 2019.

    Also means no Barrass, Ryan or Shuey for West Coast this week.

    I know it was always going to happen, but I love that they stuck with Bowser.  Looked completely at home in his debut last weekend, and adds a valuable touch of class.

    Wasn't that long ago you thought Harmes might come out for Melksham or vandenBerg mate...

    Nah, I did actually laugh when I saw those suggestions and I did think it was ridiculous. His game was imperfect, and he’s an imperfect player, but there was a massive overreaction on here to one or two poor bits of play. He was never going to be dropped.

    So? I never said I get it right all the time, in fact I most certainly don’t. I just thought this one was a pretty easy situation to read.

    Alright mate, bit 'sharp' lately compared to the chill Nash we've always known, hope things are ok.

    Will be interesting to see what happens with TMAC. I don't think he would have gone if they were worried about him playing.

    According to Ben Gibson, T Mac hasn’t taken part in full training just yet over there but they’re confident he’ll be right.

    Can the Monday teams be fiddled around with or are Shuey and Barrass certain non inclusions?

    Shuey usually kills us.

    Not if they're not named in the emergencies.

    no Hibberd is a little surprising... will be interesting to see how the defence structures up against a more agressive forward line than that which GCS served up last week.

    Pretty sure you could arrange a training mishap   and then put up another emergency, probably be a fine but they would not be stopped

    Unfortunately I think he's finished. His past couple of games he's looked cooked.

    Then what? They have to arrange another training mishap to get them into the side.

    not convinced that Bowey is the right replacement though. Could be interesting.

    Seems Lockhart has missed his chance

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
