Interesting Hunt comes in. We have 8 defenders, unless Gus or Riv move in to the midfield rotation

    Brayshaw getting those midfield minutes he has wanted... ;-)

    I suppose take it with a grain of salt, but Salem named on the half forward flank is interesting. A good team selected for a day of 10-20mm rain earlier in the day. You'd think Chandler would get the sub.

    Hoping Chandler gets the Med Sub position, just hope we don't get to use him

    Maybe we could do a phantom Bulldog injury and get Chandler on in the 4th Quarter

    Goody tends to not bother too much with positions on the team announcement, so wouldn't think it would happen.

    Gus to the wing?

    Explains a few of Harmes' decisions last week

    Does this mean we finally see Gus back in the guts :O

    Hopefully Weed can play 4 quarters this time, really needs to play a big one without a 2nd big forward.

    Yes Gus either on the wing or include in the midfield/Centre rotations

    Yeah, he had rigor mortis on Jamarra in the last quarter.

    Well, Petty did actually.

    JVR an emergency. Getting closer now.

    Chandler could well be the sub, which I don't think is a very good option. A small forward offers very little if a tall, defender or mid go down. Given we already have Spargo, ANB, Pickett and Melksham in the starting 22, unless he's subbed on for one of them we just get so out of what. At the very least, Dunstan as a midfielder can slot into the middle and push, say, Petracca forward (if the injured player is a forward) or Brayshaw/Hunt back (assuming one of them is playing midfield).

    Harmes’ concussion was broken by Demonland was it not? This place is the sauce.

    Iirc @Lord Nev shared the info. 👍🏽

    I wouldn't be surprised if Chandler comes in for JJ.

    8 defenders is interesting.  Gus unlikely to move off HB

    Is Hunt a chance a play fwd? or even Petty?  Taberner and Lobb could be handled with Petty maybe

    As an aside, this is Fremantle's first home game against us since 2015.

    Which is utterly ridiculous.

    I wonder whether there is any other match up in the competition where a side hasn't had a home game against another side in 7 years.

    Surprised Banfield was dropped by Freo. Always seems to bob up and kick important goals.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
