Out: Hunt, Browns, 

In: May, anyone who can kick to another demon.

 

Out forward structure dumb long bombs and any coach that thinks that’s a good plan.

We will lose to the filth. Moore and Howe will mark everything.

    Injured, having surgery and will miss the rest of the season I believe, Nasher.

    Maybe trying to play the same 22 every week isn’t a good idea as players get tired?

    May in for Tomlinson, B. Brown should come out but no idea who for.

    Ben Brown has to go. Who for I have no idea but he is to slow and cumbersome. Would also look closely at Picket and Spargo. No influence at all on the game. When they actually win the ball they just turn it over, Hunt also needs to go for Hibberd. Thank goodness we had Gawn and Gus as they were about only guys that won their contests and had a go.

    Tomlinson too! Bring in Weed for BB logic is Ben is badly out of touch, Dan Turner to debut for Tomlinson , May for M Brown (He's a tall HHF not KPD) & Hibberb for Hunt that speechie he went for when he was one on one has lost me.

    Out: Tomlinson, Hunt, B. Brown

    In: May, Daw, Hibberd

    Lucky to get another game: Spargo, ANB, Bowey, Sparrow.

    Me too, will be a long time before i can trust him in defence again. Cant believe I'm saying this, but i can't wait for Joel Smith to return.

    The forward line is a shambles, we got away with it last year but the game moves on, all they do is bomb it in BB is not a pack mark player but we still do it, players are so structured they kick down the line without looking to see if it can be switched to open it up, players not manning up and allowing to many short kicks which sets up players down the ground.

    Teams are chasing us down we need to change things up to get back on track.

    Not Weid please.

    Try Pettybor Tomlinson up there before him.

    The bye can't come quick enough, a lot of players out of form.

    In: Weideman, May

    Out: B. Brown, Tomlinson

    Sparrow has been poor for a while but don't think we have an ideal replacement for him. Don't think Weideman is the answer either but BB can't stay in the team with his form over the past month. With McDonalds ankle rumoured to be cactus, we are quickly running out of key forward options.

    We have no key forward in any kind of form. I sya we try Petty inside 50 and leave Thommo in

    And give Hibberd a run if he's fit (i don't know if he is)

    Out: Hunt and Brown (not sure whether Mitch or Ben, its a toss up)

    In: Hibberd and MAy

    Steven May and automatically we are 30% better. 
     

    The forward cupboard is bare.

    Enough is enough, bring Van Rooyen.

    Don't know who goes out, don't care.

    Also please stop using Hunt as full back he is clueless.

    Also tempting to bring the riv back, take sparrow out and slot Gus at HF. We are desperate for classy kicking forward of centre.

    • 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.

      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?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
