I like Hunt, last few weeks have been a bit poor but he's not alone there. Couple of brain-fades last week seemingly cost him.

Think he is still capable of playing good footy when everyone fit and firing, just last few weeks the backline been impacted by injuries and Lever being a bit out of sort. 


 

A 2 disposal game doesn’t warrant selection 

 

Lads seem very happy with the announcement

    Disco Turner in! I like. 

    Been some good footballers over the years from Albury. Reckon he might be another.

    Go well Disco!

    that was bloody unreal.  after the week we've had this is exactly what we all need.

    The group is so pumped for him.  Great to see guys like Weed and Majak being so happy for him when they are out of the side. No sooking it up

    Hope it doesn't mean Petty is out.

    Me too.

    Hopefully it's just a matter of dropping Tomlinson who had no answers for Sam Reid (who decided to play his first dominant game since 2015) rather than Turner replacing an injured Petty.

    We've come a long way since we debuted another player on Queen's Birthday. Instead of being an over-hyped PR gesture it seems this time we're blooding someone who's (hopefully) ready.

    I have been shocked at the development of this kid, don't be surprised if he really makes this spot his own. 

    He's a very capable one on one defender but his reading of the play is very good and knows when to peel off. 

    if he's come in for Adam Tommlinson it could really suggest it's going to be harder and harder for Tommo to gain a spot as a defender in this team

    I suspect that Petty will be given until Monday to prove his fitness. If fit, poor old Tommo comes out. If not fit, Tommo will keep his place in the side.

    Hunt was the scapegoat.  But others have been underperforming. 
    BBB is lucky that Tmcd is injured and Weid is “too nice a boy”. 
    Mitch Brown remains to provide some target. 

    Tomlinson stays in until May is back.
    Spargo lucky to stay in imv. I’d give Bedford the chance.

    Good selection

    Would have preferred that we had debuted one or two new players in the Eagles/North weeks. Looking back I think that's where we started the slump we are now in. A bit of a "squad"mentality may have averted the unfortunate events of last weekend as well.

    Big game in the context of the season

    In full agreement. ☝️

    It's more about Petty possibly being injured than the lack of form from Tommo.


    Please please please don’t let this mean Petty is injured. We are holding it together by some duct tape as it is down back.

    I’m taking it as a positive that Petty was kind of jumping around in the group and getting amongst it after Turner’s debut announcement.

    Turner in. Petty must be listed as highly doubtful 

    Presumably it means that Turner is in for Tomlinson, who then becomes emergency in case Petty doesn't get up.

    Hibberd takes Hunt's place.


    Turner is listed at 192 and 194cm on his profile, any ideas what it is?

    The article posted on MFC announcing his debut mentioned that he is 194cm, so I'm presuming that's his current height.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
