Spargo in the ruck

    Aside from JJ for Gus, the changes are a real head scratcher.

    We select Tomlinson with McKay out, and the Blues going small. And we drop a more mobile Hibbo from a backline that conceded only 60 points last week.

    And essentially Spargo comes in for JVR. Why have we given Schache another year?

    So unless Goody has devised a new gameplan in the past week, I have no confidence in us scoring over 60 points in what will be ideal conditions.

    The chat about no tall forwards when McDonald in the ruck ignores the fact that Smith, Petracca and Fritsch are not exactly small and all play as marking forwards PLUS can beat their opponents when the ball hits the deck

    Their start and method will tell a story early.  If we again let them get a start I will be incensed. If we drop out this week, the club will be hammered and carry an unforgivable legacy with this list.  New coaches to support Goody especially midfield and forwards coaches.

    I guess T-Mac? Maybe even Joel will get in there.

    Not super confident either though, mosquito fleet better kick some goals when we're down there.

    When was the last time tmac played ruck??? No better time than semi final FMD

    Interesting we have an ex-Demons player (Andre Gianfagna) as one of the umpires.

    Goodwin must take responsibility for selection and it does not fill me with much fizz.

    I would prefer Lauren Pearce in the ruck before T-Mac

    Has Goodwin lost his mind. Tmac can’t jump more than 3cm off the ground. This is 2017 all over again 

    reckon i’d trust a premiership coach’s logic over a footy forum

    Our ability to mark inside 50 really concerns me.

    I can’t believe Hibberd is out WTF are they doing, the guy can rest his Achilles once he’s retired, unbelievable & they player a plonker In Tomlinson 

    Salem & Tmac are ineffectual & Grundy our shining pre season ray of hope can’t even get a look in with a injury hampered Max

    This game is lost in selection 

    A bloody disgrace 

     

    Hibbo can’t play multiple games. if his body was fine he would 100% be playing

    Perhaps they are going to do what the On The Couch panel suggested and kick in scrubby chaos ground balls all game (in perfect dry weather footballing conditions). This has the hallmarks of a massive stuff up.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • 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.
