I am new born baby, never watch a football game before, and am unfamiliar about customs to do with this sport which I have followed since yesterday.

So when are the…

    Wow, Spargo in, go Charles. From all reports he was flying on the track prior to the achilles setback.

    Sub choice? You'd think most likely Laurie or Chandler based on those bench selections.

    If he doesn’t play this week, he will be hard pressed to get a look in with Pickett and McAdam coming back in the next few weeks.

    I found Sparg’s inclusion a bit mystifying, but this early in the season, I have 100% confidence in our MC.

    I’m pleasantly surprised Dof. I didn’t think he would get named after taking no part in the praccy matches.

    I hope Salem plays in the middle. Bowey the only back replacement so maybe I am wrong. Have to watch their half forward line.

    Woewodin is my tip for sub.

    Assuming they have to announce 5 on the bench tonight with 1 eventual sub, I'd find it hard to believe that Brown or Tholstrupp will be one of those 5 considering the confirmed debut announcements from Monday.

    Who else could be sub? Hunter and Spargo are injured. Adams hasn't been near contention.

    Surely we're not going down the path of Verral or T Mac as a sub after what happened in the semi. 

    Spargo is available. So is BBB but neither have done the work in last month to be even a sub. 
    Woe or Pup Kynan could be Sub or from left field Fullarton but again no fanfare so not happening IMO. 

    smaller ground suits spargo.

    looking forward to seeing his lazer accurate I50 deliveries

    Hard to take a measure of the combined team. Lots of cusp players but we shall see what the morrow brings

    Spargo is currently sitting on 97 MFC games. Would love to see him bring up the at some stage this season.

    Can't wait for tomorrow night! Go Dees!

    I’m was surprised too, but in hindsight we’ve done it many times before.  They clearly rate the competitive match play during training sessions very highly as a way to decide a players readiness to return.

    From what I understand, the sub this season is named from the Interchange selections.

    Chandler me thinks.  Bill's inside work on occasions last week was sublime.

    Not sure about Spargo, Laurie, Bowey, Chandler all in the same line-up - Billings isn’t huge either so it looks a bit short to me. In an ideal world two of those go out for Kossie & McAdam but it’ll do for round 1.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
