    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: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
