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.

    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

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
