    Dont worry, we might still get an elimination final against Essendon this year

    Better now than later in the season. Though once again, it confirms that so often players are carrying injuries we don't know about that must be impacting their performance.

    Not an excuse for Sunday, but I wonder if there wasn't more going on than we knew - Max for one, May for two. Why was May playing on the less dangerous, less mobile forward, especially once it was clear that Waterman had McDonald's measure?

    Just idle conjecture, but I know from being around elite level sport in various ways from time to time that all isn't always as it seems.

    We have plenty of cover for him. Not 100% but good enough. Next in line .

    Who? Because both Hore and Disco are injured. So in fact we have 0 intercept defenders right now who are fit.

    We can probably cover a forward more easily. In which case drop Petty back and replace him.

    This might force us to abandon the failed Petty forward experiment. 

    I imagine Tomlinson will be recalled before we bury the Petty forward experiment. JVR (provided he's recalled) will play 20-25% ruck which will leave us too short in the F50 without Petty.

    I agree that Petty should go back, despite it completely stuffing up any continuity for him trying to become a forward. 
    However we don’t have forward cover either. Brown is unable to run, Schache is no good and injured, and I believe Fullerton is also injured? 
    Playing with only one tall in JVR is not going to work especially as he also has to help in the ruck.

    Tommo comes in always solid never rewarded, at least until hore or disco are ready.  Petty stays forward we need him to hit form if we are any chance of winning a final. can't rely on Roo to be our main goto all season.

    If Tomlinson doesn't come in now I have no idea why he is on our list. Yes, he's no world beater but has been Casey's best and is the natural replacement.  Petty has to remain up front given the paucity of forwards. I'm not overly confident this will occur.

    Looking ominous.

    If this injury dates back to the tweak against Hawthorn I'll be quite peeved.

    Is there anyone on our list who isn't (a) carrying an injury that should have been rested earlier or (b) coming back from injury lacking form and match fitness? Our player management is leaving a lot to be desired.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.
