    Wonder if they'll pull a surprise selection? Dropping Hibberd for May instead of Joel Smith?

    Hibberd dropped

    No j agree. Just know the club rate Smith enormously and would be finding ways to fit him in.

    You were right. Hibbo out. Smith still in. 
    I’m confused.

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

    The committee is clearly intent on getting game time into sparrow…

    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

    I disagree with Smith holding his spot over Hibberd and Sparrow holding his spot over Jordon.

    But, neither is an egregiously bad decision.

    If Port wins, I truly hope Smith proves me wrong.

    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.

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

    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.

    Looks better than Hibbo on Rohan. He’s get carved up for pace

    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.

    I thought Smith did well last week but didn't think he'd hold his spot. Big show of faith from the selection committee. Hibbo on the outer for finals i reckon

    Fantastic to have 3 leaders back.

    the team looks excellent with a great mix of youth and experience and some good pace.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
