They just showed the players out on the ground. Hunty is there. Could he be the sub after all?

Might not mean much, but in the team meeting Jordon was sitting among the group and hunt was sitting up the back next to Byrnes.

    To be fair I think Melksham was in the front row too.

    Yeah, but feels like it would be out of Hunt and Jordon, so seeing Hunty up the back pretty much by himself could be a hint.... Or it could be me just overthinking on Grand Final day while I pace around the house...

    Edit - Just saw your other post. JJ it is.

    Gawn was back row. Think he’s a strong chance to start 😂

    Richardson saying it’s unlikely we tag Libba from the start and we’ll play our own game first. Good call?

    Sitting next to Gus.

    Hunt was not near anyone other than Byrnes. Been confirmed since he's not playing.

    That is so sad and on GF day with both his team playing. Greg was a great player; mark but poor kick. He mad many barren days at the MCG late 60s early70s enjoyable.

    It's great that JJ is in he has had a solid year, but really feel for Hunt. Played right through the season and only got injured at the tail end. Loved his run and definitely improved this year. Stiff to miss out.

    Smoke and mirrors I reckon.

    Harmes or Viney will go straight to him IMO.

    For those that have priority 1 tickets, where does that sit you?

    Anywhere as wet we’re first, but most have bought the first blocks along the fence that was category 1. 

    Is Gus ok? Just saw him go to Stafford shaking his head and Stafford looking at his watch🤔

    May looks like that every week. Always looks stressed. It’s his persona.

    Copy that, I saw some photos behind the goals and some on a flank. Would like to think it could have been a like for like from where we sit at the MCG.

    • NON-MFC: Round 12

      Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
