And I thought Goody's selections were baffling on occasion. 

Love how Warner keeps "telling" the selectors how he will retire in Oz.

I wouldn't have the nous to know what I'm talking about in Cricket Deever haha

Well at least you have some pretty good footy smarts Layzie.  Will we get the chocolates this weekend?

It's so sweet beating the Crows. Hope our forward line delivers. I don't think Grundy will get the nod and Chandler probably comes in for Spargo. Good to see Tommo back. Can't see Goody making three changes😀

Haha appreciate that! I do having a passing interest but wouldn't be able to go too deep.

It's definitely a potential trap game if we aren't careful, if the Crows take the game on I can see them giving us some issues. Need to make sure our forward line is moving constantly and not stationary, just need to kick enough goals and we should be right. 

Ever since we lost that game in Adelaide by a point I've just wanted to build this massive streak on them 😃

That would’ve been cool but we only celebrate total number of AFL games. Melks got his 200th game banner last year for which he was very grateful. Some players show their appreciation more than others.  Langers is also particularly grateful for things like this. So we all stood on the graphic (very small crew tonight) and were filmed yelling out, “Go Eddy! The Demon Army love you!” We know he’ll love it. ❤️💙

Understand if you don't want to give too much away but would you like to share who the other players are aside from Melksham who have appreciated the banners more than other players?

I'm going for England in the cricket 

I'll barrack for any team that plays Australia. Cant stand them.  Cricket died with Shane Warne.

I like the dees team in- out selection. Tomlinson and Hibberd must play. Wouldnt mind seeing Laurie debut but is there room?

Obviously every game is important, but this one is hugely important for our top 4 chances.

Should we get the win and Geelong loses, we would only need to go 3-2 to finish top 4 with two bottom 3 sides to come.

Looking at the team selection, I would expect only one of Tomlinson or Hibberd to play, unless there's a late withdrawal of one of the other nominated defenders or one of Tomlinson or Hibberd is the sub. The other six defenders (May, Lever, Salem, Rivers, Bowey and McVee) are all ahead of Tomlinson and Hibberd and we play seven defenders, not eight. 

I suspect Tomlinson will play while one of Chandler or Laurie will replace Spargo. Smith, in my view, will again be the sub.

Laurie's debut was earlier this year.

Tomlinson is named on the field so he’s definitely playing.

Tomlinson for Petty is the right call. Wonder what the rumour mongers will come up with next. 

Spargo out is also correct IMO. I suspect Chandler comes in but the Bowey/Hibberd idea is appealing. 

I want Smith to come into the 22 and Chandler be the sub. Demonlanders underestimate what he could do for us.

You might get your wish FT.

On Casey form Bill should get the nod over Chandler but of course Chandler has more experience plus early year 'AFL' cred form so the SC may revert back to what they may see as the safer option.

Isn’t it you with your tongue out?

I like Tommo in the backline, he hit form vs Coll and has been playing very well at Casey. Too good not to have as one of our 3 tall backs

Whist Petty is a good player, he has been injury prone this year. Get him cherry ripe for finals. Unlike others, I think there's still much potential for him as a key forward

Should Tommo cement a spot with form in the next few weeks it's a great problem to have finals W1.

Look at the Pies. Their depth is such that they have good players in form dropped to the magoos. And their culture under Fly has this working

if you want to experiment with bowser forward, the norf game might be a safer choice?

I know that! That’s how I knew you were being facetious. During the last Test match you asked me the old chestnut question, “who’s winning in the cricket?” 😂😂😂

The players who most appreciate the banners along with everything else we do (besides Melksy) are BBB, Langers, Harmesy, Ricky Lever and Brodie. These guys are also hands down the friendliest and the ones who engage with us the most. 

Choco, Goody and Richo are also super appreciative. ❤️💙

Conversely, there are some players who don’t engage at all and even one who is notoriously rude to DA members. Not gonna name them but it’s like with any group of individuals in life: some are not as pleasant as others.

Agreed. The hawks game with Petty and JVR as key forwards was our best mix. Petty was BOG till he got injured in that game. Sliding doors hey. He's still worth a try up forward and would compliment Brown.

It’s like you guys were flies on the wall last night! I can’t repeat most of the comments made, suffice to say the others were told “don’t leave WCW alone with the graphic.” Nuff sed 🤭

The rude player probably used to read DL and was shocked at all the negativity even during our flag season.

Come on give us a hint. Its your call.

May,Fritsch or Hibberd?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.
