Please tell me what happens if max gets injured mid game

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.

    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.

    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

    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.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
