    Hopefully they don't drop Rivers for Hunt. Thought Rivers was fairly poor but can't drop someone after that.

    Jordon holds his spot as sub. It's hard for Chunk, but Jordon has been in the 23 almost all year and it's just the right thing for Jordon to have that spot.

    Absolutely no change.

    Im sorry for Hunt but he got injured at the wrong time and Bowey passed a big test tonight.

    I would make Jones sub. If it’s out of JJ or Jones I’d make a sentimental call and give it to Jones given it’s highly likely  neither will actually get on the field.

    Suspect May's hamstring is an issue

    He was preserved tonight in case of a concussion or other significant injury until no question

    Who replaces May?

    And yes, I want Jones as sub!!!


    No change.

    But I bleed for Nathan Jones.

    Should have said, if May's injured, I think it will be Joel Smith (assuming he's fit). There aren't any other reasonable options.

    Yes we can

    Heart and connection got us here

    Jones is simply not good enough anymore, he is well down the pecking order.

    Please do not put Jones as sub. We cannot get sentimental in a grand final

    If they make him sub then it means that he’s earnt it, no questions asked. He’s been listed as an emergency for 2 games now so IMO there’s no reason why (either sentimentally or logically)they shouldn’t make him the sub.

    That being said, he’ll probably go home to see the birth of his kids so this argument is pointless.

    He's been an emergency, not the medi-sub.

    Jordon's been the sub in both the finals and there's no reason he would slip below Jones in the pecking order now.


    Jones sub. He is capable of what Jordon did tonight. His presence on the bench alone will lift the team.

    Love James Jordan but Jonesy has earned the right to be in the team.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
