I promise you that when you turn up to the G tomorrow, you’ll see 22 Melbourne players plus a sub. Who those players are, nobody knows.

    Good question. Pies players are probably still waiting for their Telehealth consultations.

    Surely it’s the players who trained with Woey as carryover.

    JJ and Hibbo in for Harmes and Bowey.

    Would far rather see Woey in than JJ. JJ is a known: pretty competent, but no more than that. Woey is an unknown. He may be a bust but then….. maybe not.

    Hi all, 

    I have 2 level 4 tickets in the Shane Warne Stand that I’m not using tomorrow, so if anyone wants them they are free to a good home.  DM me, first in best dressed.

    That’s still insanely late, not blaming the club but Today’s games had teams confirmed on Friday.

    I suppose it matters to the club from a planning perspective. 
    Shouldn’t matter to fans, except those who gamble.

    same as last week with Bowey and Harmes out and Hibbo and JJ in, with Woey as carryover.

    Enjoy.

    Not hard to work out since we know who played for Casey today and we know who is unavailable due to injury.

    Both teams are in the same boat. I'm sure we'll have multiple plans for certain players, but we'll focus on ourselves as always.

    Collingwood's ball movement and what they try to do isn't drastically going to change from the last year of football, so it's about how our system can combat this and exploit it.

    The personnel is largely irrelevant, although we know De Goey and Sidebottom won't be playing.

    Used to matter as they had to print the Footy Record. Doesn't matter anymore.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
