I see Smith is back this week.  The more I think of it, the more I like the idea of Smith playing the second tall role. He is everything weed isn't - high intensity, hard at it and loves the

Geez.  The criticism of Gawn on here is beyond ridiculous.  15 hit outs to advantage is almost unheard of.  25 disposals for a ruckman, 8 marks - 3 contested and a huge number of score involvements.

I mean, we kicked 15 goals last week with that lineup...

Anyone who can mark, beat an opponent. Gawn was a disgrace tonight. Lowered his colours, Jackson is in the departure lounge

OUT: Harmes, Tomlinson, Melksham

Play Bowey has a high half forward and let him run wherever his heart desires

I say give BB another week to reclaim fitness. Forward functioned well so no need to rush him back

In Lever

Out Tommo

They need to get Brayshaw the heck out of the backline. He’s undone the balance of it. Completely unaccountable. Doesn’t provide genuine line breaking and can’t hit the side of a barn. Just zones off a mile and racks up chip kicks or long bombs.

If JJ needs a rest he can go to the wing. Otherwise just drop him and bring in Bowey or Hunt and get back to the structure of last year.

Otherwise it’s Brown for Weid and Lever for Tomlinson and that’s about it. 

Melksham for JVR, Chandler or Bedford? I doubt it.

I don’t think the selections really matter, will come down to whether we take our chances or not and whether the will to win is as strong as we saw in 2021, other than that it’s just shuffling the deck really.

Lever in for Tomlinson.

Harmes out. Hunt in, brings balance to the backline. Gus returns to the wing. As good as he’s been down back, the balance isn’t working compared to last year. 

I’d drop Jackson too but we have no viable replacements so he stays despite being poor for weeks now.

Again, who will you have replace Max or Jackson???  Yes they are out of form, but there is actually nobody on our list to replace them even if we wanted to.

There are some crazy emotional posts in this thread. 

Fit BBB and Lever would come in, but I do t think you need to change much. Jamara played a blinder and was the difference.

BBB could replace Jackson, but other than that we are pretty exposed

I did post back in 2018 that reading this site was like being trapped on public transport with a pack of schoolgirls, it hasn't changed.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
