I reckon the notion that it’s a significant experiment is grossly overstated. How is it so different to the Gawn/Jackson combo?  

The media have hyped the hell out of it. Mostly because they are both AA and neither is a notable forward. I agree, it is not going to be the most significant factor. Based on what I saw against Richmond it is going to be out ball movement. I do think trying to take the 45 kick will open it up for us to use Gawn and Grundy more effectively as outlets.

    Tomlinson won’t be the difference if we win or lose, he’s one part of a team defence. 
    Go Demons!!!

    If we let Bulldogs in with a few easy goals i dont think our forwards minus Fritsch can kick a winning score.

    Geelong kicked over 100 p and still lost comfortably in the end.

    Are you suggesting if we let in a few easy goals it will be due to Tomlinson?

    Hopefully it will be windy tonight ... it would make a mess of the dogs' 4 talls forward line.

    Due to 'Melbourne Air' I cant smell anything.  Sinuses are totally blocked.  Feeels like a pencil rubber up each nostril.

    I can still yell Go Dees.

    Dontchya know, DZ… If a meteor collided with Earth tonight it would be due to Tomlinson. 

    Great now I have to take a bulldog supporter with me and a cocky 14 year old boy at that fml

    I remember a lot of h8 for Lever as when he was returning from his knee.....lot of knockers. I dont think ppl understand the confidence side of injury rehab. Can take a while.

    Disagree. We've all seen what Pickett can do when he's at his best. And 2021 showed that Brown and Tmac can be very damaging when they're both fit.

    This is so true, WWS! This is oftentimes more important than the physical healing. The power of confidence is immeasurable. So it’s also why we all need to get behind Tommo. Give him all the love he deserves and NEEDS.

    I've got the same issue. A lot of the time I can't smell anything.

    Apart from the sweet smell of victory of course!

    I think we can cover Viney and Fritsch and I'm not sure Salem is best 22 after last years performances but May is a massive loss. Have no faith in Tomlinson hoping to be proven wrong and happy to give an apology after the game if he does his job.

    Before Tomlinson went down the knee on 2021 he was playing CHB with aplomb!

    We know he’s only in the team due to injuries but let’s give the support tonight because trying to contain Naughton is going to take a Herculean effort.

    The weather is wild. It’s like 9000 degrees with a gale force wind. Good luck kicking goals 🫠

    Well if it's windy the Dogs might have issues with all the set shots they'll be expected to take on our 'no name' backline.

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
