    I cant see Melksham getting there, Hibberd perhaps....

    Of the others Jake Lever obviously but May is going to need close to 3 seasons.  Probably depends on how many times he accidently gets injured playing on Hawkins.

    ANB or Viney would cop 8 weeks for that

    I'm making an early call on Jonesy's son.

    On the Sunday GF replay he was running along the G in front of me and Viney ran up behind him and barrelled him into the ground.

    I'm guessing Viney used to cop that as a kid too.

    If any of them have girls currently they only need to have played one game based on Campbell’s daughter who was drafted this year

    Half a dozen games in the 22 and a handful more as sub will get Hibberd there

    Reckon Melk will fall short

    Maybe a bridge to far for Melk I hope that we get him to his 200th at least and agree very do -able for Hibbo. I will be very surprised if Steven May doesn’t play 100 for us and Jake Lever is a shoe in at this stage.!!

    Funny you mentioned that. I've been adamant on the Twitter, and copped a pasting, that Hawkins intentionally clocked May in the match early in the season. It was an absolute no-brainer that Hawkins had a swing because no one would convict him (especially the ex player gang in the media) because he could always say it was an accident. But you pull any one of those media pundits aside and I'll guarantee they'll agree Hawkins had a free hit, and they'll acknowledge with a nod and a wink that everyone knows what Hawkins was really up to.

    Or even a shoo-in. 

    1. a person or thing that is certain to succeed, especially someone who is certain to win a competition.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
