    Melksham, Viney, Petty in.

    You could make a case for half a dozen to be dropped, mainly from the forward line, but hard to see Jefferson staying. For the rest ...

    Either fritsch or van rooyen to be dropped. Disgraceful we couldn't get a goal between them.

    Sorry but Oliver needs to be dropped. Provided nothing today.

    Jefferson definitely dropped.


    Either something is not right with May or he’s a shadow of his former self and I query giving him an extra year in 2026

    Plugger Mac is by some margin the best tall defender

    wouldn’t drop or sub him

    Partly all of the above, but you only get AA May when Lever is in the side.

    Suspect that the recruiting team are already working overtime desperately trying to find us a key forward. Or a key back, so Turner/Petty can stay forward.

    In: Petty, Viney, Melksham, Laurie

    Out: Jefferson, Fritsch, Oliver, Tholstrup

    I'm not a huge wrap for Sharp but at least he is fit and will give repeat efforts. Tholstrup doesn't look quite ready and not sure why we rushed him in off injury.

    Doubt Oliver gets dropped but was a liability today with some of his efforts.

    Give jeffo at least a month in the VFL to find and consolidate form.

    Reward Laurie for being one of Casey's best consistently, even if only as sub.

    Time to manage May and Gawn. Melksham is not the future. Unless there is a gameplan reason time to try someone else.

    Foward line solution... Like the coach I have no idea

    May is getting a bit long in the tooth but he was fine today TBH. Bigger problems than his form.

    Jefferson put in a stinker after a puzzling selection to begin with. I want him to succeed but I can’t see it after that. That was almost papers stamped-level bad.

    Can’t have Fritsch playing that badly and keep his spot. JVR is a worry but I think he can contribute as second ruck again.

    In. Viney, Melksham, Petty

    Out. Jefferson, Fritsch and Spargo/Sharp/Tholstrup

    Can see us putting up a good show at the Gabba and still losing by 40+.

    I’d go a triple change of key forwards:

    JVR, Fritsch, Jeffo all out. AJ, Melk, Petty in.

    Don’t think either Sharp or Kolt are up for it right now.

    Maybe Kynan Brown as sub.

    Now confirmed by Goody post match that Viney entered protocols on Thursday and won't play against Brisbane next week.

    100 percent agree. He looks confused out there. Slow to kick it in. Loses his opponent all the time.

    Just trying to understand how you would even have this as a consideration… Lindsay is already so important & so good. Strange one Nicko

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
