Interested to see if Spargo gets some midfield time, since Viney is out, and I think he is the best like for like swap.

TMac already in full gear having set shots from different angles. 

And nailing them!

Who is JJ in for?

 

Still 40 mins to start time and this is already a big crowd. People streaming in steadily. The atmosphere is already awesome!

You haven’t seen it happen? Well then that must mean it never happens.

If it happened it would be picked up by cameras and blokes would be getting rubbed out. Simple really....

It doesn't happen because no one is going out there deliberately stomping on other players foot. 

To think that the club won't release information regarding Bayleys foot because it might instigate opposition players deliberately stepping on his foot is plain laughable. 

My last comment on this. It's game day mode for me now.

Is JVR, Woey and Laurie confirming to play or did they play the earlier game??

Keen to see SoW play.

Laurie suited up in the change rooms. 

Woey looks like he’s the sub in the indigenous training tshirt. 

JVR sitting on the floor on the side of the rooms without shoes and socks on. Assume he’s not playing.

After mainly playing VFL practice match last week and now this, you’d assume JVR isn’t playing round 1. BBrown and TMac have held their place.

Might come on in the second half

I’m pretty sure this game is match conditions meaning no resting players with a replacement except the sub. 

Oh right

Please.. This isn't the 80's. Lots of AFL players play with sore ankles and not once have I seen an incident where a player has deliberately stomped on their foot simply to exploit them.

 

Totally agree, some people need to toughen up, it’s a tough physical game, that’s what we love about it 

 

It is extremely hot 

I hope there is no cap on rotations today in this heat.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
