Thanks for the info mate. We were planning on just rocking up and buying tickets 🤷🏽‍♂️ we have a country family membership but not sure that'll help with a Gabba game. Either way we'll be there

 

Hope it all goes smoothly, we need every bit of support!

    Great ins. And TMac named as well.

    Full strength other than Salem. Lions won't know what hit them.

    Edit: forgot about Kossie. obviously will come straight back in post suspension.

    Got to feel for Tomlinson, but if May is available then clearly he goes in, and if Fritsch is also available then there's not much of a case to shuffle any key defender forward.

    Presumably Melksham will be sub again as we've added more height with the changes anyway, plus he is so close to 100 games he can probably taste the Menevit tablets already.

    Terrible ins 😅

    Gotta feel for Tomlinson, he played so well and deserved another go.

    Fingers crossed May's calf doesn't blow up.

    That is one very very strong looking side. 

    It sure is.  I wonder who would go out to make way for Pickett and Salem, who are both surely in our best side.

    McVee and Chandler I'd say, sadly... though I worry about Harmes at times but I'm just glad I'm not a coach or selection committee trying to figure it out lol

    It's probably one of the best 22 we've seen since flag with Salem and Pickett really the only glaring outs. 

    Interesting to see that we have got the same 4 umpires as last week for this game.

    I think Chandler has shown enough to stay in, as you mentioned, Harmes I’m not completely sold on…he’s sort of lost a specific spot and is behind others in terms of midfield minutes…tough gig that’s for sure

    Darcy, Darragh, and Dayne.

    Brisbane's ins look like someone tried to cheat on a word puzzle game.

    Meanwhile, our ins could each stake a claim to being in the proverbial best six at almost any club. It is a little scary.

    At some point this season our whole team is going to have an 'up' game on the same day and it simply won't matter who the opposition is. (Although personally I'd like to see our two games against Hawthorn reach a combined margin over 200)

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
