    We played our best available side last week. 2 players (Lever, Fritsch) were sore and 1 had covid (Viney)

    Weā€™ll play our best available side now, a week later. 3 players (May, Hibbo, Salem) pulled up sore, 1 is injured.

    Then in round 1 weā€™ll pick the best side possible and of course a lot of fringe players will miss out. 4 of the 26 likely wonā€™t play tomorrow unless thereā€™s injuries or need for fresh legs late.

    May, Salem and likely Hibbo (Smith and Hunt a chance to pinch his spot if heā€™s not cherry ripe) will come back. Just as Viney, Lever and Fritsch came back this week.Ā 

    I recall reading that Viney was missing last week because of "Covid protocols". At the time I thought this meant either that he has Covid or someone he had been in contact with, such as another family member, had. Do we know for sure that he had Covid?

    Youā€™re correct, I was just keeping it brief. Protocols is all I knowĀ

    It's a practice match. A barrier trial. The great Nature Strip is regularly beaten in trials by horses who are not fit to eat the leftovers from his feed bin.Ā  Ā 

    I am not concerned with the result tonight. Keep our powder dry and rest our sore guys until the real stuff starts.Ā  I WILL say however that if anyone needs to go hard and impress, it's Sam Weideman.

    Im not concerned by the result as long as we beat a weak looking Carlton by around 5 goals!

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last yearā€™s grand finalists.Ā  Well, it wasnā€™t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer.Ā A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.Ā

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
