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.

IN: BBB
OUT: Weid

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?

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 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.

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.

If BB isn't fit...

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
