This is exactly what I want to see, but would be starting Laurie and have Woewodin as sub.

That is still a very strong side and at full strength I could see Pickett in for Chandler, Oliver in for Laurie (moves to sub) and Petty in for Schache. So really 3 players off our best 23. McAdam is also another who might find his way in, just not sure who goes out for him. Hunter for Windsor is another, but I have a feeling he may surpass him quickly.

Given the injuries, I'd propose the following for Round 0:

McVee May Tomlinson

Rivers Lever Hore

Langdon Petracca Windsor

ANB JVR Billings

Fritsch Schache Spargo

Gawn Brayshaw Viney

Salem Bowey Sparrow Turner

Sub: Howes / Chandler

From memory it was mentioned that Shane McAdam was on light duties walking the boundary line in the last training report.

All the players that were not mentioned in the 46 were injured. Clarry and Salo will be mentioned next Monday as long as they don't get injured in the Richmond game.

McAdam won't be available opening round. T.Mac Oliver and B. Brown should be available.

You never watched the practice game. Tomlinson and Schache were awful and should never play a game in the seniors again.

Just realized that Hunter is available for the Carlton game. Think he'll be pushing it to get in the side by opening round but if he can play well against Carlton he'll have a chance.

I hope they move him to the wing, or somewhere out of defense.

Unfortunately he will be competing with Hunter, Langdon, Windsor, and possibly Billings, Brayshaw or Woewodin. Hard to see where he fits in. Foot skills aren't very notable, good athelete and runner but contest wasn't exceptional in defence. Tall-ish, but is he good overhead? Fingers crossed he shows something.

If Kynan can kick goals and play like he did last week if he does that and Kade does not get involved then he deserves a half forward role in the opening zero game in Sydney.

    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
