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.

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

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

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
