Amazing win,  I think Smith comes out,  he looked to get in lever and May's way a bit.

Maybe for Jordon or Hibbo

    I tend to agree, though he does sometimes pull something out of the bag.  Who would replace him - Weed?

    I'd go smaller. Melksham or Jordan (I prefer Melksham) 

     

    I think we've played out best footy with 2 talls

    Hibbo or Jordon for Joel Smith

    It's too early to call because of the raw emotion. Fingers crossed no surprise injuries.

    Assuming we're all fit, I'd look at bringing Hibberd back for Smith (cost us early goals and provided no real oomph whereas Hibberd I think would).

    TMac stays. Doesn't get dropped after one game back. Structure is important and we need forward half options against Brisbane's tall defence.

    I would leave the side alone but have a qiuet word in Mr McDonalds and Fritters ear.

    Any chance at all of the MRP finding issue with Lever in Q1?

    You can probably guarantee it! A fine at most I’d think (hope).

    McDonald was super rusty but I'm sure the hope is he builds back up, we can't trust Melksham and we don't really have any other forward options.

    The only way he'd come out would be if Petracca plays forward more (and maybe Harmes too) and I think we saw that earlier in the year as not always working out. Petracca had a much better second half playing forward tonight but generally we need him on ball.

    I still prefer JJ than Sparrow as a midfielder, which means Harmes doesn't have to spell on the wing. But Sparrow seems more effective as a half forward. So I'm not sure they change that one.

    Which really only leaves Smith for Hibberd. I can see why they went Smith tonight. He can match Rohan and Dangerfield for pace and switch on to Cameron at times. Handy when Lever doesn't have a match up.

    But I think against the Lions it's Hibberd in for Cameron. The only other option might be Rivers on Cameron and Smith or Hibberd on to McCarthy. I don't think you can back Smith in to play on Charlie. If Hibbo gets beat for pace he gets beat for pace, better than getting caught out like Smith will.

    What was the incident? Time stamp?

    Joel Smith is still leaky for me.

    I'd have Hibberd come in to do the lock down job on Cameron.

    He has been written off before and bounced back. His first half was dreadful but second there was some improvement.

    That win will give the whole team a lift including TMac. I'm backing him in to regain his form v Brisbane

    Hibbo is 98% cooked but still want him in over Smith.

    Not sure Sparrow thrives under the heat. JJ seems to be the cooler head.

    Sparrow can go missing but he’s surprisingly strong overhead. I liked the balance of our team tonight and think we’ll need the extra tall against Brisbane’s defence.

    Sparrow did good (aside from kicking it into the man on the mark twice). Tmac needs to be told if he doesnt kick atleast 3 goals hes getting "the jab"

    Sparrow has a good mark on him and a bit of pace. Reckon we'll see some serious gains next year and cement a spot in the 22.

    The reversal free on Dahlhaus.

    Was silly from Jake but even Lever couldn't work out what he was trying to do. Held him down across the top of the chest/chin with one arm and then attempted some half baked punch to the ribs with the other. I doubt they even come up with a fine for that given how poorly executed it was, but that's surely the most it would be.

    Does anyone know how far away Hunt is? I would like to see him back in the line up. Also I think Hibbo should come back in.

    As good as Bowey is and will be I think he might get exploited defensively, so maybe Bowey and Smith go out for Hibbo and hopefully Hunt.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.
