Even if Clarry’s not ready please get Harmes out of our side. 

I suggest we may see the Grundy forward experiment. 

In Oliver Grundy

Out Harmes Petty

    Joel Smith to play forward if Petty is cooked.

    Moonboots are precautionary although they look awful.

    Fingers crossed on Petty. Maybe just a week or 2 hopefully.

    there's no match-up for tomlinson at the baggers so can't see him coming in

    OUT: petty, harmes
    IN: oliver

    smith forward and hibb comes into the 22

    Healy on kayo, looking at it on replay thought  it could well be  the dreaded syndesmosis. ie 8 weeks. Anyway fingers crossed it’s not .. he’s a big cog in the wheel for us.

    Yeah I think i’m with you. Tempting to give grundy one last go though isn’t it.

    Hibberd was quality after he came on for Petty. Definitely deserves a full game next week against the dangerous Carlton smalls.

    For anyone else you’d be suspicious of a syndesmosis so I’m not surprised job for life Gerard went with that. But with Petty only just recovering from the sprained ligament in his foot that has to be the suspicion too.

    Either way serious foot/ankle injuries rarely get back inside 6 weeks. Full fit inside 5 would be a good result.

    ...not really?

    do not rate as a forward option and gawn's work around the ground has been extraordinary these last few weeks

    Thought he was average. A poor panicked handball gifted the Roos a goal. 


    JJ’s second half probably keeps him in but geez if Oliver is cherry ripe and can dominate the midfield with Viney and others then do we go a double change in the middle and take out a crash and bash mid and bring in Woey, Spargo, Laurie or even Moniz-Wakefield? All who would bring either speed or polish. 

    We had 6 inside mids today: Viney, Gus, Tracc, Sparrow, Harmes, JJ. We really only need 5. 

    I don’t think he’s quite ready but I’d love to see the Money man Wakefield

    Oliver for Harmes seems a reasonable bet.

    A few options for Petty. We could try Grundy. We could flip Smith back to the forward line and bring Tomlinson back. We could go back to the well with Brown, but I doubt that will happen. A lot of food for thought. A shame Casey didn't play this weekend.

    I think Viney 71% gametime was part of the idea there.

    Loading up on mids lets us run out games strongly, but it means we also start slowly because we’re slow.

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?
