I really hope there is a genuine realization from the FD that Jordan is a much more effective, reliable player at the moment compared to Harmes. At least thats what this naive supporter believes

Hopefully, Harmes is either one of either sub, emergency or lines up for Casey. I hope everything with Harmsy is OK with possibly family member passing away. 

This. 

Hope his personal circumstances are okay, but I think we look elsewhere going forward unless Harmes magically turns it on at VFL level. 

He simply doesn't do the basics well enough, consistently enough and tries to be Petracca 2.0 too often. 

I'm actually looking forward to adding a top 10 midfielder into our group at the end of this year, will be refreshing. 

Thanks Freo!

    Wouldn't say Bowey was immense at all....

    He had 10 disposal for the night and played like someone who was overthinking it knowing that he spot was under pressure.

    You’re right, immense is overstating it. But he hit targets, moved the ball quickly and won one on one contests. Salem got dinky kicks that led to turnovers and couldn’t move, compete or tackle to his usual standard. Bowey should’ve been able to move better and complete his role better, would he? who knows?  but I think an unfit Salem was one of many mistakes we made in last years finals.

    Jordan (Sub)

    *Jordon.

    No way Jordon is is relegated to sub after the way he played last week. He was superb.

    Outs will probably come from the sore/injured guys BBB, Hibbo and possibly Lever and they'll re-jig the midfield for Kozzie.

    Don't worry layzie the dees don't do 100 point victories. 60 is the max IMO. 

    I'll take 60 this weekend.

    He (Bowey) may not have had many possessions, but I can't recall his opponent/s doing much. Which is a significant part of a defender's job. He's a ripper. 

    I worry about Salem's future. Bowey and McVee may have overtaken him.

    Any chance of a Blake Howes debut if Pig doesn't get up?

    Tomlinson should be next in pecking order he has done everything to stay in contention.

    Blake Howes had his best game last week but i would be letting him replicate that for few more weeks to be more AFL ready.

    One thing for sure about this match is I'm not going to know who half the Eagles players are

    Half! That's still about 80% more than I'll be able to identify.

    Does Collingwood, when they draw what is seemingly going to be a comfortable game, go through this " how much do we need to beat them by  to have satisfaction?" rubbish from some supporters?

    A lot gets said about how we never play WC in Melbourne but we gave up home advantage to play them in the NT in 2015 and 2019 so that's on us.

    Layzie was talking about the winning margin, OD, not the crowd size.

    Half the Eagles players won’t know who half the Eagles players are. 😁

    I find that Bowza kick mesmerising. I just keep watching it over and over.

    Now he's seen Goody moving the magnets, I bet he wants Petty's place in the forward line and is auditioning

    Given how much joy they got out of multiple one point wins last year (or at least less than a goal in the dying seconds of the game) I'd say not!

     

    T Mac and Kozzi   IN

    Brown and Hibbo  OUT

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
