Who will be the sub?

Casey listed Harmes & Tmac as inj.

but if our emergencies only Harmes and Turner didn’t play for Casey today?

so surely it’s Harmes?

    Keep an eye on Bailey Humphrey (#19). We were keen on him in last years draft. He went pick 6. Gippsland Power boy. Just going this year (4 games, 33 disposals). Word is that he’s not happy to n QLD. Trac did coffee with him in Adelaide 3 weeks back.

    Promising young kid. He was the reason we were trying to trade up the draft. Strongly built inside mid with good forward craft. Similar to Trac actually but less polished by foot when on the outside. If we don’t package up our picks come draft time, I’d be all for trading our first rounder for him (as in take Freos pick 5ish to draft and trade out pick 18ish for him). Getting a pick 6 who we were keen on for that would be a steal.

    Reckon there’s a good chance there are more Dees here than Suns. 

    Who is surprised by that. 
    But by all means let’s continue with this failed experiment.

    Confirmed Turner in for Hibberd.

    Not surprised. GC have gone mega tall and Hibbo is clearly not 100% right. No point pushing him when they don’t have an ideal matchup. 


    And looks like Harmes the sub

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
