On the flip side this may well be Hibbo’s last hurrah. Where as Hunt has a lot of time left.

    Yes agree.

    Tough on Hunt and others who miss out but what about young Jake Bowey. 6 games into his career, he has cemented his spot in the side and will run out to play in the big one tomorrow. The kid must be pinching himself.

    I have been weirdly calm and confident the last two days, and I do not like it one bit. We are 100% going to lose now.

    I was a just watching AFL 360 and they only showed footage from the round 19 game which was infuriating.

    I honestly think we win and win pretty well (over 30 points).  In fact, if this game is played 10 times I think we win 9 of them and the one we lose is through bad goal kicking.

    Yes the only question is the medi  sub. I think it will be jordan but I would prefer Hunt. More speed and can play forward or even as a wingman. Mind you Jordan has not done anything wrong.

    Love his speed and all things equal hell yes,..... but seven weeks out is too big a risk and i reckon the reason why.

    Jordan subbed in for him the injury week. Then played the next week

    And hasn't played since

    ........ and very hard to change a team that won a Prelim by 83 points at its last outing.  GO DEES!

    Particularly as the result against the team of the footballing gerontology (The Cats) whom I regard as more potent than the Bulldogs and certainly, more experienced. The WB had a good run in the finals against sides that were less competitive than they should have been. 

    This gives me some confidence, as I rank the top three teams as follows: 1. Melbourne; 2. Geelong; and 3. The Bulldogs.

    In this ranking, there are some noticeable differences between the clubs - this leaves us, I believe, clearly at the top of the rung and about to win a Premiership.

    Carna Dees!

    One of Jordon and Hunt is going to be a hard luck story.

    Jordon hasn't missed a game all year (whether in the 22 or starting as the sub).

    Hunt was a mainstay of the side for the first 20 weeks, wouldn't ever have been dropped but was one of our rare injuries this year.

    Nah, Clint, the wins 'yes'; the one we lose is the result of the umpires keeping the Dogs in the game, all game and with so many poor and incorrect decisions going their way, it was too late to change their earlier decisions and the resultant outcomes. The one that I didn't like, in particular, was when Max marked in front of the pack (in front of the Doggies' goalmouth) and was penalised for backward head-butting Liberatores fist.

    Absolutely, really feel for whoever misses out. A lot can change in a couple of months. Back then, Bowey was barely a twinkle in Goody's eye. Rare for a debutant to take his chance like that. Definitely good on him, kid is going to be a star but geez Hunt/Jordon will have every right to feel like the rug was pulled out from under them.

    Is anyone else fighting off nausea?  I've been trying to distract myself all week and (thankfully and ironically) have had some full on stuff to deal with  - but every time I 'relax' and think about Saturday night I feel like vomiting. Or crying. And then vomiting again.

    I'm going to be a mess on Saturday. 

    No drinking before the first bounce!

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
