Coleman a big out for the Lions

Can't say I know anything about him

    The changes make sense. Obviously assuming May is unquestionably fit. If there is any doubt he should be a late out for Tomlinson. Otherwise, it is so tough for Tommo. It’s more than just he did nothing wrong, he was genuinely good and would be playing for most other sides this week.

    Laurie out for Viney makes sense too. He’s had a taste and will be ready for another crack if/when we need a replacement.

    Will be very tough once Salem and Pickett are ready to return. On last week’s game, McVee can’t be dropped.

    He’s good. Line breaker which they lack.

    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

     

    With the country family membership you get one free ticket (per family member) to an interstate game in which Melbourne is playing. This is that one game?

    Regardless, try to get to the ground really early and if you have an issue PM me and I’ll see if my DA BFF can do something to help.

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

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

    Tommo can play fwd too. Could have been Sub if May or Tmac struggle.

    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

    Nah Chandler has been in good form all summer even in the practice game.

    It's Sparrow for me. If he has another nothing game then I'm sorry, he's my immediate out for Pickett when available.

    I smell a late change with May not being risked…

    No insider info, just a faint whiff of footy dept nonsense.

    31. Tight calf. Friday night in Brisbane in March.

    Yeah I reckon they’ll give May till the last minute and Thommo will be traveling emergency and a possible late in.

    Melksham the sub again.

    100%. Intel or not, it is round 2 - it just doesn’t make sense to rush a 30+ bloke back after a very recent calf injury (especially after his replacement played so well last week)

    Right? That’s the first thing I said at banner when I saw the 50 and the #35. Feels closer to 100.

    If May had a question mark over him he wouldn’t have flown up to Brisbane he will play

    Need a big night from the local Brissy Demons as the Lion players are gonna come after HP big time i reckon.

    Likely to get pretty willing early me thinks and he'll be a target throughout the match.

    Hope the boys are mentally prepped for this to happen

    • 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.
