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

Do we risk McDonald?

 

Don’t have a choice need someone with a brain 🧠 

1st change. 
Anb. Out. Was terrible all night. 
Bedford. In. 
 

2nd change

Salem out. 
Bowey in

3rd change 

Melksham out 

Tmcd in.  Have to risk him. If not, it’s JVR 

 

Back them in. 

Unless Harmes is suspended which i don't think he will be. just show a video of Patty cripps


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 


Bedford Dunstan McDonald Bowie in ANB, Spargo, Harmes ANB Salem out

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

Like it

OUT: Melksham, Rivers

IN: JVR, Bowey

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

As a big ANB fan, he has to go out

Melk out also

TMac in and Jordan

Harmes/Tracc share defensive fwd

Jordan is out for 4 weeks, he just got foot surgery 


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.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
