They'll name extended squards tonight with full team to be announced Saturday afternoon

Any chance we can do a Geelong this week and beat a mid range team with multiple best 22 players out in addition to losing a gun defender mid game, without its defensive structure falling to pieces, and produce a character building win?

Thinking Turner will be named on the extended bench.

Yes they'll want to give Petty maximum time to recover

Bloody oath. 

We should be winning this game based on desire, talent, system and purely that we are further advanced than them

Great sides who have won premierships over the years have always been able to win games with key players out. The last two weeks have been understandable because of who we've played. 

But seriously, if we don't win on Monday I will be genuinely disappointed and slightly concerned about our second half to the year. 

We also owe these flogs who caused a huge upset against us last year. And they were missing a handful of their top 10 players and still beat us. 

It sometimes comes down to big club vs small club mentality. 

We better respond. Especially after the week in the media we've had. I expect a galvanised group who are committed to the cause for four quarters. And I expect to win.

I think he has a future but no way he is ready for QB 

From my observation he has been useful in 3-4 games and good in one but that was North who are very poor. I seriously doubt he will be promoted any time soon.

Not really any point, they will name him anyway and if he plays we'll have prepared for him.

I'm picturing Viney sitting in a cage, gnawing his teeth right now

I pity the Collingwood players that come anywhere near him on QB

UNLEASH JACK!

Jack's impact has improved, too. If ever there was a Demon capable and willing to create havoc with the Filth, it would be Jack. I wonder who his key targets will be?

with a 8 day break I think Petty will play but definately need Hibberd as Petty is liable to go off for long periods.  That's what happened in the 2nd quarter when we were a tall/bulky player short.

now that it looks like Miocheck is out and Elliott is in.  Hibbo is a must.

Elliot is too strong and too good one on one for hunt i reckon.

Hibbo would be the match up for Elliot - can match him for strength and is excellent one on one.

I'd go Hiiberd in, and plays on Elliot. And Hunt goes to Ginnivan.

Mihocek = Kent Kingsley

Mihocek is a very good player and underestimated by many.  He's no Kingsley.

Mihocek = McDonald 

Vastly underrated player

Those who rate Mihocek and those who don't can all agree with this comparison. Those who rate him can assume he's like Tom and those that don't can think he's like Oscar.

Personally, I think he's a very good player and would be even better if he had some good tall forwards around him.

Hunt shouldn't play give the job to Rivers or Salem.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
