    Does anyone know what time the team is announced? I am expecting Hunt or Hibbo to replace Smith and am just as keen to see Geelong's changes

    In five mins 👍🏻

    Really surprised Geelong didn't bring in an extra midfield for Parfitt, but instead have stayed with Zac Guthrie who's a half back flanker.

    Parfitt is Geelongs best defensive mid. They've left the bollocking work to a Selwood and a banged up Dangerfield. 

    Works in our favour.

    No change to cats line up. Which looks funny because psrfitt is out.

    Zach Guthrie was medi sub last week. In the starting line-up tgis week

    Hard luck for Smith. I think Hibberd is the right call as the closest like-for-like replacement for Smith.

    Jones the sub?

    Their true team is Z Guthrie in, Parfitt out.

    It's hard to believe Guthrie is ahead of Narkle, who can't even get on the emergency list, but there you go.

    Don't think Jonesy will be sub, and fox footy have been saying he will fly home if he isn't.

    In practice yes.

    But the medi sub counts as a player. Hence no change

    No Hunt even as emergency. Would assume he was not quite right.

    No Hunt. C'mon Hibberd find your early season form and you will stay in the team.

    Really surprised by Zach Guthrie who a mate of mine has suggested (Jeelong) that if he plays ut plays right inro our hands!! I DEFINATELY would have played Hunt over Hibberd easily and I hope this doesnt end in tragedy! Hunt not even on extended bench???? Dont like it one bit. JONES to be medical sub take  it to the bank!

    What a huge tick for young Bowey.

    I'm wrapped for him.  Hug tick also for Choco in bringing him on.

    His beautiful disposal will be rocketing out of half back, centimetre perfect to Fritsch.

    MFC Website still saying Hunt is 2-3 weeks

    Hibberd is an upgrade offensively and with decision making. Not defensively, but we should be able to cover him.

    He also looks to get us going when we fall back into boring footy. Not as much as Hunt but it’s valuable.

    Ultimately, this will be decided by the best 12 players on ground.

    Yes I know, I just think of it practically.

    Someone tomorrow will be named as their medi-sub and theoretically that player is the "in" to replace Parfitt, but really it's Guthrie in, Parfitt out, and someone else to medi-sub.

    Well the team is as expected so the only mystery may be the sub. It will probably be Jordan but I would not be surprised if it was Melksham. Has a reasonable record over there.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
