    John Lord for me.  Ye olde Number 4 could also take grabs down forward and slot a few goals. He could also bring it to ground for Barassi, Ridley and Adams-all renowned goal kickers. Hassa would also be lurking close by!

    Stop it, you guys. It hurts to remember ... such great players, such memories and then we realise their demise and the silent years that followed. Oh, it was absolutely fabulous, so continue. Just reading the above four sentences everything they did floods back at that is a real pleasure. What about Vagg, Bourke and others including the excellence of Norm the Smith?

    a hammy strain for Gawn is clearly bad news given his age and importance to the side. the next block of preseason 4-5 is arguably the most important so let’s hope it is very minor. 

    with Schache pretty much our only real option after Grundy, and a poor one at that, we need a bit of luck with injuries in the ruck department 

    Gawn injury update…

    “Max was closely monitored over the weekend, and we were really pleased with how his hamstring settled.”  — Melbourne head of medical Dr Laura Lallenec.

    So effectively our injury list includes Max Gawn (hamstring but not serious), Angus Brayshaw (awaiting results of scans but training), Jake Lever (ankle issues - dating back to the 2022 semi final?), AMW, Joel Smith and train on player Trent Burgoyne and newbies Adams & Verrall.

    Round 1 

    May - hamstring TBC 

    Salem - thyroid TBC 

    Fritsch - foot - round 2/3

    Viney - knee - TBC 

    4 key players out. Arguably 4 of our best 10 players.

    According to today’s Herald Sun ~

    “While the Dees will lose star forward Kysaiah Pickett, they have four reinforcements likely to be available from their 2021 premiership side - Christian Salem (thyroid), Jack Viney (knee), Steven May (calf) and Bayley Fritsch (foot).

    “The quartet successfully completed the Demons session at Gosch’s Paddock on Monday.”

    would you really want to drop McVee. Just think the confidence booster of another game may set him up for a life time of Demonisism.

    I made no comment on selection. Just quoted who was available after injury. It’s up to the selectors now to decide the makeup of the team.

    Taj really unlucky (dislocated finger - out 6 weeks) he would have been a chance to play ahead of Laurie i reckon.

    At least the injury doesn't impact his fitness levels to much.

    Terrific that taj is now the ONLY player on the injury list, which is pretty remarkable.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
