What  happened in your second paragraph? I can’t make sense of it. 

The fourth player to be named as emergency will be another Demon whose identity is unknown and is also unimportant as he won't be playing. 

I expect Jordon will be named the injury sub and the starting line-up will be unchanged from last game.

    Now that he is on media Street he has to go against the grain to stay relevant

    I think you're right BM but its sad also. Kane cornes is highly opinionated for the same reason but he always argues his case.

    The best ross can do is say ."... so and so will get the job done...". Is that it?

    Well, the SEN footy writers don't rate us. Apparently Bevo is a tactical genius and Goody has as much tactical acumen as a lettuce

    I get the feeling this is going to be a very physical game with a lot of agro.

    No doubt Max will be targeted but I cant imagine Jv being silent about that.

    Harmes and Libba will probably duke it out.

    May will probably be pushed about with his hammy in question but he can hold his own.

    Hannan will be angry again.

    Tmac will probably and hopefully throw his muscle about.

    Anb, Trac and Lever never ones to take a step back.

    And finally Fritta to fire up.

    Can't wait.

    They can toy with Max at their own expense.

    Don't poke the bear, dogs.

    I wouldn't mind if one of our defenders gets into Naughton's path occasionally in a manner that he can't flop around 'begging' for a blocking free.  Or May put a bit of side ways body contact on him before he takes his leap/takes a run.

    I'm expecting their staging exaggeration to be at an all time high, especially Hunter and Weightman.  Both very good at throwing the head back for a 'high' free and leaning back into their opp as if being held, especially when they know they can't get to the ball!  Not to mention others who drop the ball before being tackled and get a 'holding' free.  They know all the tricks and will exploit them.  

    100% agree. they have many clever tricks, watching the replays Macrae often 'dives' forward dishing off the ball almost unnecessarily to draw a high free. he will propel himself horizontally.  if we don't give up those type of frees, it will help keep the ball 'live' rather than the doggies earning a freebie.

    First time I’ve seen the majority pick the Dogs. Reckon it’s been about 75-25 towards Melbourne I’ve seen.

    I had a really vivid dream last night about the Grand Final. The scores were 146 - 42 in the third quarter, Richmond were thumping us. I didn’t see how it ended because I left early. Apologies that I can’t report on the end result but my mate texted me and said Gary Ayres won the Norm Smith.

    Still better than my dream. The dogs were leading by 30 points at 3qt a couple of nights ago. I hope we make up the deficit by 3qt Saturday evening.

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
