Clause 1A in Gus' contract looking shaky 

Might be playing forward pocket at this rate

Most likely to JJ's wing and Harmes to go to Neale or maybe Rayner

 

Merge the thread ??

His numbers have been good but he has looked absolutely buggered during games recently.

Been a liability since the knee injury. Will be better for it. Most oppositions attack this side of the ground to expose his questionable fitness. 

Jordan covered 14.6 km last week, our 3rd highest, including 2.6 km at high speed (over 18km per hour), our 2nd highest.

 

That list of emergencies is each in the starting 22 of at least 15 of the other teams.

We have one list issue currently - tall forwards. Aside from that we are well stacked across the board.

I don’t understand why they played Harmes in the slog last Sunday if they intended him to play tomorrow. Did he get rested in the last quarter? Surely JJ won’t miss out again after playing all year - perhaps being freshened up.

Not ideal but if he doesn't play then that's two weeks without a hit out.

Smith ready to be brought back in for the grandfinal, nothing more certain

Back to the premiership winning wing!

Probably the hit out the FD wanted even if it was heavy under foot.  Possibly had a somewhat lighter week on the track vs most to counter the Sunday match.

Gus to JJ's wing yes?

Don't think we used a run with on Neale when we smashed them last time.  Possibly Harmes to Rayner.


Team selection is a brutal business, at least they aren't sitting on their hands. 

I also don't know if people have been watching the same guy but he's moving like a freight truck at the moment. If we want to stop getting skinned through the middle we need fit players in there. 

Good to see Harmes back a long as he does an effective job on Neale. With Neale attending the center bounces I can see us starting with Petracca at HF and Viney and Brayshaw in the center bounces with Harmes. not the worst setup.

For Jordon's wing position we have a few that can cover there. Melksham has been named there but I do not see that as a full time gig for him tomorrow night. might have a bit part there but ANB might spend more time in that position and depending on defensive matchups I would give Rivers a spell there as well. Hunt I would try to keep in defense as we are getting god run for there with him.

 

I see a win from the Demon Road Warriors..... Bad luck Lions..... 

Melksham named on the wing means Gus is there, nothing surer.

Jordon looked laboured, despite what his running numbers were - Sparrow the way back in for him I think.

Spargo and ANB aren’t in great form but from what I can see, the play roles that are not easily swapped in for someone unless they know where to go and when to go - mainly on defensive structures…

Harmes to Neale, Angus to wing, JJ out.

Spargo lucky imo

Back to Sparrow, Harmes, Viney all being in the same midfield group. The stuff of horrors.

 

That played in the most dominant finals side in years..

How Spargo continues to get a game is absolutely mindboggling🤯 has done Zilch for weeks and last week was extremely poor

Will be watching Harmes energy levels and ability to run out a full game closely. Surprised to say the least given he played an entire VFL game 5 days ago.

You reckon? JJ has really struggled since the Geelong game.

I see that Dean Kent is an inclusion for St Kilda in what will be his 100th game.

Genuinely forgot that he was still on a senior list.  I wonder if the 100th is a farewell gesture.

 

How frustrating are how they put out the teams?!!

lions and demons are both listed as having one out and zero ins. When he reality lions are no change and demons brought Harmes in for Jordon. 

did I mention I hate the sub rule??

And the other 21 played a finals like game hours before...

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
