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.

Terrible ins 😅

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.

"Look Eddie, I haven't received February's payment and it's close to the end of March. WTF is going on?"

Haha, Eddie.


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.

rpfc said it. I didn’t say a thing.

soz, don’t mind me, just talking aloud to myself 


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

Jon Ralph saying Tommo a very good chance to take May's spot

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

  • NON-MFC: Round 05

    Gather Round is here, kicking off with a Thursday night blockbuster as Adelaide faces Geelong. The Crows will be out for redemption after a controversial loss last week. Saturday starts with the Magpies taking on the Swans. Collingwood will be eager to cement their spot in the top eight, while Sydney is hot on their heels. In the Barossa Valley, two rising sides go head-to-head in a fascinating battle to prove they're the real deal. Later, Carlton and West Coast face off at Adelaide Oval, both desperate to notch their first win of the season. The action then shifts to Norwood, where the undefeated Lions will aim to keep their streak alive against the Bulldogs. Sunday’s games begin in the Barossa with Richmond up against Fremantle. In Norwood, the Saints will be looking to take a scalp when they come up against the Giants. The round concludes with a fiery rematch of last year's semi-final, as the Hawks seek revenge for their narrow loss to Port Adelaide. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
