Interesting Emg list. Smith incase Hibberd doesn't get up. Bowey most likely sub. Or can they choose someone not on the list if Hibberd is a late out.

    Swans got a tall in doubt? Interesting emergencies.

    Is JVR a wildcard chance for Sub?

    Jordan is not named for tomorrows game.

    Was an "out" after being a medi-sub last time.

    That is the best team we have available at the moment. Only two different to the starting 2 in the '21GF. 

    I think we have the Swannies shaded in the midfield and our defence will need to be at their best and have the usual pressure of all team defence up the ground to hold the forwards of Sydney. Our forwards team performed well last week and had great service into the forward 50. Silver service and accurate kicking was a highlight against the Lions.

    I still look at our forwards a a week to week proposition. Tough Sydney defence will test them out.

    Dees by 4 goals going away.

    That’s Premiership team but for Hunt/Bowey which would’ve been for injury. 
    And Melk for TMac

    Hard to believe that people still think that positions in the named team mean anything.

    Other than the absence of TMac we're in fine fettle. Perfectly placed for another red hot crack at it

    We're going to win tomorrow. And win well I reckon

    Midfield battle will be the key imv.  Sydney have got a good mix of contested Mids ( Parker, Mills, Rowbottom) and pacy runners (Warner , Gulden, Florent, Stephens). I think if we win contested footy, we will win.

    Both teams look very strong on paper. Will be a cracking game but confident our best wins.

    Tough call for Bowey, but Salem had to come back in.

    Interesting that JVR is in the emergency list .... something happening?  He is the only real tall, though Joel I guess would be ahead of him.

    If we can’t smash Parker mills and rowbottom with Viney Clarry Trac then the world no longer makes sense

    A few wanted Bowie to stay but I think we knew Salem was coming back.

    Hope he is in his golden form.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
