Lever is listed on the ground but isn't listed as an "in". I'm confused. Shouldn't be listed as an inclusion?

    Spargo broken scapula. I broke my right scap in a bike stack. It’s super hard to brake as it’s covered in muscle. Must’ve been a big whack.

    There were two ...just sayin ' 😉

    TMac not included confirms that he was indeed omitted last week, as per team selection list at the time.

    He was not "rested". He was dropped.

    I tend to agree.

    They don't want to get this path wrong.

    You need physicality in your team and on every line, he brings that in spades.

    Team orientated, selfless and can knock a few skittles down when the occasion arises.

    His confidence will continue to grow and you never know he might bob up and take a couple of towering grabs and kick a couple of snags in the accompanying months.

    Agreed. I would certainly like to see him in our team against pies. I'm not saying AJ is an enforcer but he could be if required. It's been a while since we have had players that dish a bit out. So he needs to play against the Saints.

    Jvr is probably a better choice but AJ isn't just there for his looks and marking ability.

    Vineys always dependable to stick up for his mates and Melksham certainly doesn't lack ticker.

    So if Viney plays forward it would make defenders very nervous.

    I'm tired of seeing Cwood rough us up. Time to give a bit back and see how they like it.

    AJ is certainly the bloke that could do it. I think he may be a gentle giant but only a fool would test him.

    Team selection this week proves one thing

    That I myself have NFI of what’s going on.

    It’s well past my logic. Go Dee’s

    What’s so hard to understand about this week’s extended squad?

    Perhaps, Adams in the squad rather than JMAC. JMAC was unlucky on form to be dropped.

    Admittedly T Mac was a bit stiff to get omitted, but we swapped Lever for T Mac. A tall for a tall. Maybe it’s a sign Adams is getting a little closer, competition for spots is healthy.

    This is very easy to pick. Viney in for Spargo. That’s it.

    Bench will be Turner McVee Rivers and AJ.

    Sharp sub, or if they want to get a full game into him at Casey, Laurie a sub smokey.

    I'm guessing Adams is back up for Lever in case he doesn't get up.

    So does tom mcdonald play for casey this week?

    Unless he's injured, yes. Not an emergency.

    He's ahead of Adams, but you can't have guys not playing each week because they're emergency, so Tom drops back to at least keep up his match fitness.

    How could Sharp NOT be in the starting 22?? If he aint the sub and Laurie gets a gig... selection is STUFFED!

    I reckon the entire channel 7 team will be there as it is a designated CH 7 game.

    The Foxtel calling team till be calling from a studio aside from the designated boundary rider who will be at the game.

    Apparently the callers at the studio have access to vision that the viewer doesn't while they're watching the game live.

    Garry Lyon admitted on radio earlier this year that he hadn’t appreciated how good Tom Barrass was until he saw him live, as he’d only seen him on TV when he played in Perth.

    Studio-based commentary is sub-standard. Foxtel know that but don’t care.

    That’s right, bing. He said he was dropped and he knows he’s gonna have to work hard to get to his 250th this year.

    Because he’s shown next to nothing when he’s played from the start mate.

    His energy shines through when he comes on for a quarter when the opposition’s tiring.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
