I don’t know how Sparrow is in ahead of JJ. Unless JJ is sore he is just a better player.

Sore mammies would make chest marking quite difficult I guess.

Smith was excellent last week until cramps got him. He offers more flexibility and speed on the game than Hibbo but lacks the footy smarts. Can see why you would want him against Rohan.

So do we go:

May - Hawkins
Petty - Cameron
Smith - Rohan

?

Smith might be worth a try on Cameron.

His athleticism would give him a show of keeping up on the lead and in the air.

very strange team to say the least with Jordon and to a lesser extent melksham out.

Playing Viney and Sparrow in the same team is a very strange move

Sparrow extremely lucky to hold spot would have kept jordan

Thought Hibbo would be the natural choice to play on Rohan. He could have a field day if he gets hold of Smith 

Hibbo is almost cooked

I reckon Jezza would get him for height and reach though, prefer Petty.

I still think I would have preferred Hibberd over Smith, but I don't absolutely hate the matchup of Smith on Rohan (I may eat my words there though).

Yeah can't say I agree with the team selections to be honest. Hope we are not playing with fire.

Really thought Jordon would be still in and Sparrow out. Though Sparrow did have 7 tackles.

Problem is also the imbalanced of the midfield. Dropping Jordon takes away outside spread where as now we are just too one dimensional with Viney back in.

Backing Goody with this one but [censored] I'm extra nervous now.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
