I think @12345_54321 deserves an apology?

Certainly individuals as always so quick to shut peolle down without actually giving them a decent chance...

How can Tommo be dropped?

Was one of our best defenders last week. And isn't Petty undercooked?

If this is directed at me I asked a genuine question. I didn’t shut anyone down and certainly won’t be apologising. The poster ‘guaranteed’ us something last time which didn’t eventuate. I’m entitled to ask a question this time around and don’t go playing the nice guy now all of sudden now dd.

All I said is that I hated his info. Still do.

I don't agree with dropping Tomlinson, and I am a firm believer that we won't win a flag this year unless we get another decent tall marking target up forward, which seems to be Petty.

I suppose it was the old three into two doesn't go.

Once you assume Petty fit one of Smith or Tomlinson had to go.

If this works it may be a master stroke as both Petty and Smith can play forward and back thus allowing flexibility in weeks to come. Mind you I'm not convinced that Smith is a forward but it's all part of the ride

 

The betting market has come in slightly in Geelong's favour if that means much.

Geelong $1.96 - Melbourne $1.84

Gamble responsibly. :P

I’ll wait to see the teams named before thinking this could be the dumbest selection in MFC history…

100% thought you were going to say - Mind you I'm not convinced that Smith is a back but it's all part of the ride. 🤷‍♂️

Thommo!  Don't have to be dead to be stiff!  Thought he was fantastic last week.

Great game - given a chance to shine and seized it well. At least he is on the bench. Very handy for clearances/spoils.

Overall, the team looks strong, adaptable and able. How will Badloss configure the onfield? Who will nullify Close, a significant feeder and gatherer?

I was late to this news but I am strongly opposed to dropping Tomlinson for Petty. It just feels wrong. Tomlinson’s game against Collingwood was too good to warrant Petty being an automatic inclusion. The harsh result should have, as unfortunate as it may be, been imposed on Petty, not Tomlinson. 

Jordon for Spargo the correct call in Oliver’s ongoing absence. 

JJ gets a game ahead of Bowey. No Oliver, give him the time he needs. Whilst it’s disappointing the club seems really focused on bringing players back fit and ready to play. Salem a great example. Be really interesting watching Petty tomorrow night. He looked comfortable forward against the Hawks so where’s he playing tomorrow??

 

I wish they would end all the smoke and mirrors stuff with Clarry.

  • 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.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
