The PREGAME Thread will replace the CHANGES Thread and will contain any discussion relating to the next match including Changes, Ticketing & any other related discussion for the upcoming match.

Who comes in and who goes out?

Lever is under an injury cloud. Disco Turner? Tomlinson?

Do we play our best available 23 again or give some of the kids a last shot before Round 1?

21 hours ago, whatwhat say what said:

yep, best again

i imagine it'll be a squad of 28 allowed to play?

I don't think it will be our best team. It wasn't last year, or the year before.

In both years we had our best 22 on the first practice match.

Unless there are injuries I suspect we saw the round one team today (with the exception of jvr).

Melksham might be an in perhaps.but Chandler would probably have to come out, and I'd prefer Chandler.

Hopefully those who were watching today play next week

If Lever is out then I would like to see Disco. Plays more like Lever than Hibberd does.

I can't believe you mentioned Tomlinson woeful performance today.

 

Will be interesting if Jacob van Rooyen plays, especially as he may have possibly injured his hamstring?

Fingers crossed I am wrong on that.

If they lose, will their members be microwaving the membership before the season starts I wonder 🤔🫢


Can someone please confirm the ticketing situation for this game. I thought I read free entry but, if so, I assume you would need to get there pretty early before thousands of Richmond fans descend on the ground.

Jason Castagna wont be playing, as the 26 year old surprisingly retired from AFL football, effective immediately.

No one can afford petrol!

Or food... Or electricity or gas or their mortgage...

Sheesh,  only 26? Felt like he was around for decades, good on him though. Triple premiership player in 100 odd games.

This recent incident on the rub down bench convinced him it was time to call it quits.

I'll be making the relatively short journey to watch this game.

Anyone know if they stand will be available or will it just be standing only?

I read a snippet in the herald sun that we will be putting put a younger squad then what we had against the Saints.

He's no Ian Ridley but that's a pretty good run.

I never picked him as being unusually wise but you have to give him credit for getting off the Titanic at Cherbourg.

I’d like to see Judd McVee back up his good game against the Saints

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • 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.
