    Brown for Weid unless Jacko is injured?

    Melksham continues another week in his small tall role.

    No idea what to do with Harmes and Brayshaw and whether JJ, Rivers or Hunt go out. Wait and see on Hibbo too.

    Depending on concussion protocol timing; Harmes might not be able to play next week.

    OUT: Weid

    IN: Brown

    Harmes to sub, fighting it out with Sparrow over the same spot for the rest of the year

    Melksham is building well

    Brayshaw to stay in the guts

    Was Jackson injured at the end?   Someone said he was seeing the doctor.  IF so maybe a reprieve for Weed - if not depends on BBB.  Even if BBB is still out surely we consider JVR.

    Hard to leave anyone out after a great team effort, but sadly there is one exception. Apart from his goal, you would hardly have known Sam Weideman was playing. Big Ben has not set the world on fire this season but he does at least have some presence up front. Jackson injury a bit mysterious. I couldn't spot him during the team song. Harmes for Sparrow or ANB?

    Nibbler is badly out of form - has slowed down and getting caught too often. I think he needs a break. Weed must go surely - again zero physicality.

    Sadly Weid is the one that goes out 

    I reckon he played a role but not enough to stay in unfortunately

    ANB was poor but I would be surprised if he will be dropped.

    Weed for anyone would be fine, such a shame he could not take his opportunities.

    If Brown isn’t fit I would debut JVR. He can’t possibly give us less than Weideman. 
     

    I have always supported Weideman and wanted to see him succeed, but the lack of effort tonight was unacceptable. Fine if you can’t take a mark, not fine if you stand and watch teammates trying to win the ball. Really disappointing. Needs to go.

    I wouldn’t rush Harmes in. Brayshaw’s time in the middle was heaps more impactful than Harmes’ usually is.

    I noticed Jackson was taken down to the rooms after a head knock which they reviewed on the monitor. I also noticed I could not find him in the team song. If concussed mandatory 10-day break means he misses next week.

    In: BBB

    Out: Weid

    Tonight was the most balanced we've looked all year.  Only player harmes should come in for is Sparrow.

    Bit premature with Casey yet to play but I'd go with

    Out: Weid, AnB

    In: BBB, Harmes

    Melksham playing a decent game in the wet but don't think he's best 22 come finals. If we revert to a 2x KPF foreward line set-up I think he makes way and we bring in JvR.

    Sad to say Sam looked lost at times - sure one very good contested mark and goal.  IMO if BBB not ready JVR could not do less - he looks a fierce competitor.

    Those who say Sparrow should go - thought he was very fierce a the ball and at the opponent.  IF Harmes is really ready maybe ANB is more vulnerable.  Seems to get caught more often recently.

    WTF? Sparrow was in many Demonlanders votes tonight. His harassment, tackling etc tonight was magnificent.

    Assuming Harmes needs another week and BB is fit?

    Out:  Weid, ANB

    In:  BBB, Chandler

    If BB isn't fit...

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
