    May in for someone ... Adams presumably (even though that's a bit harsh)?

    Not sure who for Windsor unless it's Woewodin or Brown, and Billings has been pretty consistent at Casey.

    Cupboard is always bare at this time of year.

    Adam’s would be pretty stiff to be dropped after a reasonable debut.

    K Brown for Windsor?

    Mentioned maybe but for whom?

    May for Adams would normally make sense. But with only two games to go, you could make a case for giving the youngster some more AFL experience and letting May's battered body have a good rest before the next pre-season .

    Brown or Woewodin for Windsor? Either change will probably weaken the team. Not much use promoting Billings, who does not seem to feature in any long-term plans.

    As for the rest, everyone in today's team (with the possible exception of Sparrow) did enough to keep their place.

    May for Adams

    Kolt for Windsor

    Howes back, Bowey forward, Sparrow sub.

    It’s not harsh to drop Adams. He’s not ready. You can tell at Casey he’s not ready. He loses concentration and doesn’t seek out the ball. It’s good he got a taste and there were some flashes but he has to take that back to vfl and dominate.

    I think Kolts going to be a good solid player but wouldnt reward him yet.

    Windsor out.

    We only need replace the sub.

    OUT: windsor, adams, sparrow
    IN: may, tholstrup, woey 2.0

    there's honestly not much at vfl level pushing for a call-up, despite their game being a ripper contest and great win

    Need a runner in tho. Can’t have May for Windsor.

    We could leave Sparrow in the starting 22, or drop him entirely but I think sub is a fair compromise. I don’t want to disrupt Casey too much either, those guys are having a good crack at finals.

    Lindsay in not Kolt is an option too, but I’d like to see Kolt play a little defensive mid.

    You missed Viney. The Shah of shoelaces

    It would seem a bit unfair to drop Adams after he was given the impossible task of guarding Naughton who's in the form of his life, but I can't imagine we'll be leaving May on the sidelines.

    I imagine Windsor will miss the remainder of the season. Lindsay seems the most logical replacement but Kolt has also had a good block of VFL form. I can't see any of Woey 2.0, Laurie or Brown getting a look in anytime soon.

    Might be an unpopular opinion but as much as I'd love to see Kentfield or Brown get a go next week, Casey kinda has more to play for at this point. With two dead rubber games to go for the seniors, why bother messing with a team that needs the momentum going into finals? Is it worth a call-up for 1 or 2 games? Maybe? Maybe not.

    Very likely. All things considered the likely option.

    OUT: Adams, Windsor (inj)

    I really dislike the arrogant tossers at Hawthorn. Please let us smash them.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
