Out: Salem, Melksham, Harmes 

In: good question... Bowey, ???

 

 

 

 

 

Why are people dropping Salem? In a team full of butchers and dumb footballer his poise stands out...

IN: Bowey, JVR
OUT: ANB, Melk

I acknowledge they're unlikely to bring Bowey in for a forward but anyone with a pulse is an upgrade of ANB at the minute

JVR in for the steak bandit

    Tricky proposition given the way the team played against the Lions last week.

    Some of tonight's duds were reasonable or better against the Bears, vis a vie Melksham, ANB, Brown and Brayshaw. Whaddayado?

    Goodwin has no form for making changes and I can't see him rolling the dice at this stage of the season.

    If I had the say it'd be:

    Out - Salem. ANB

    In - Bowey,TMAc

    Play the same team and get the same result.

    Out: ANB, Melk, Harmes (suspension)

    In: Chandler, JVR, and potentially Dunstan for Harmes

    Let this team regroup and find form against the lions. Maybe consider tmac for Melks if he’s fit enough but that’s highly doubtful

    Look I can see min changes but Dunstan could well be in the mix.

    And swap Gus  and Harmes' roles, both were poor.

    TMac won't be ready we needed next week for him to have another game, maybe the prelim if we make it.

    Nibbler out, Bedford in

    Milkshake out, TMac in

     

    Entire forward line aside from Fritsch needs to have their positions up for grabs. BBB is not the long term answer, but wow he was done no favours with the quality of our forward 50 entries (deep to the pocket, rinse & repeat).

    As for our smalls, non existent both offensively and defensively. No one was front and centre when it came in, nor was there any pressure to keep it in.

    I wonder when the match committee will realise how badly out of form ANB has been?

    I have a gut feeling they'll make no changes unless there's a forced one.

    Gus has one poor game (by his standards) and you want to move him from the middle after 4 great games in the same role? Glad you are not the coach.

    • NON-MFC: Round 12

      Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
