    JVR to play at his home soil. 4 goals for sure 🔥🔥🔥.

    I imagine he will invite all the people from his hometown 😆

    IN: Kysaiah Pickett

    OUT (to be sub): Spargo or ANB

    Brown Out, Pickett in.

    Would like to see Viney out for Howes, but not sure Jack would get dropped being captain. I feel he is probably our biggest watch over the next few weeks. Disposal poor, decision making poor. JJ is a much better 3rd midfield option and Koz back will squeeze Jack out.

    Absolutely no idea what changes they make, a couple of thoughts: 

    IN: Pickett
    OUT: Sparrow

    JJ, Gus to have more mins inside

    IN: Pickett
    OUT: Hibberd

    Jordon to have stints at half back or Petty back to defence? 

    Really can't see them dropping BBB

    Kozzie in hard to drop anyone from today's game. Someone is going to be stiff. Melk junk time supersub may be left out

    Let's get the Casey boys for a nice Perth visit and rest our AFL team 😆

    The season is a marathon, not a sprint. We need to peak when it matters. We're not losing next week, so why not start rotating the list a little bit and giving a few blokes a rest next week. Will refuel the batteries and ensure we can go the distance. We have the depth and need to use it. It's what hurt us last season in the end.

    let's wait and see what the medical report is on sideshow bald first

    if he's out i still like our structure with three talls up front - sideshow, roo, and petty - so if one of them is out then plugger mac gets another opportunity more than likely

    pickett is obviously an in, most likely for melksham, with one of jj or sparrow - probably jj - sliding to the sub

    Brown should have a week off regardless of whether he’s injured or not. Another week to look at Petty and JVR up forward and we can always bring Tmac back. 
    We are heading into a softer patch of the draw and we need to take opportunities to rest our older and most important players.

    100% agree. The 3rd tall is the Ruck pinch hitter. 

    We also need to get some games into Turner, should be our 3rd tall of Petty plays up forward.

    Kosi for Hibberd. Petty to go back. Another possible out is Sparrow (just 10 touches) but I feel like he was vital in getting centre bounce clearance momentum back.

    No way can Harmes replace JJ. Jordon was immense today.

    Think melksham is a lock for sub until he hits 100mfc games, he's on 97 now.

    why would anyone give AF if he gets to 100? he already got to 200 games

    Was BBB injured? Please don't tell me it's the knee

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
