Good luck to you if you can get anything out of those selections.

    So who are the 4 interchange and 1 sub?


    Petty is a certainty (doh)

    Sparrow for mid-field rotations (rather than Harmes)
    Tomlinson 
    Hibberd

    (or is that too may backs?)

    Smith is the perfect sub

    Spargo will be kept out by the form of Chandler

    Grundy is destined to be an emergency every game

    That is probably the way it will barring an injury prior to game time

    They must have liked Jordon's game last week.

    Jordon was a bit quiet last week but has been good at playing specific roles since Clarry has been out.

    There’s more to footy than stats alone

    Poor Taj I thought he started all right. He was a bit quiet last week but I think of the chances Neal Bullen, kozzie,even spargo and JJ have had over the season.

    Of course nth bring back Cunnington. The guy that always manages to find the ball against us.

    I think Jordon is a lock until Clarry returns. I want Hibberd in for Harmes, but I don't think we've ever played that many defenders together.

    Cotchin isn't best 22 anymore. It's passed him. Champion but I forgot he was in the ground last week

    I think they have named him to give him a bit of confidence, he's had a tough year with selection. I think they will see what he brings and if he plays like he did again I suggest he'll be dropped. Probably will anyway to make way for clarry

    Spargo and Chandler plsy different roles..

    I suspect spargo comes in for Woey, who had been playing spargo's role.

    I am OK with Woey being dropped. Had a run, knows what to expect next year, or perhaps if an injury occurs to one of the wingers/mids before the season ends.

    A chance Tomlinson takes the sub position (or Harmes), as they need to get some game time into Joel.

    Hibbo slots into the backline, unless they decide to keep Chandler.

    Sparrow is Woey's replacement.

    A no to Grundy and Spargo from me.

    Petty on the bench. Lol. 
     

    Even WORSE Spargy Pants in the squad!?? He was very very ordinary last week in the half he played! What about rewarding guys like Andy Moniz Wakefield who was sensational in a loss last! Time to reward FORM Goody!

    Goody did say Grundy won’t play this week so not sure why he is named - emergency I guess. I favour him being on the bench to share ruck duties against their two rucks.

    We could, if we play Bowey at half forward… I know it won’t happen but a girl can dream of those sexy kicks going inside 50

    My tip for the bench:

    Spargo

    Sparrow

    Petty

    Hibberd

    Smith (sub)

    Meaning woey, harmes and tomo dropped.

    Petty listed 8th on our extended i/c bench.   What???????

    The eight bench players are named in order of jumper numbers from lowest to highest.

    You can tie me to an anthill and smear my ears with jam if Petty isn't in the starting 22.

    • 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.
