Love the game but I am finding I grossly dislike most things that get packaged with it…..including songs after every goal

    Everyone had a positive reaction to the Irish jig during the Jim Stynes tribute game last season, I'm shocked that that hasn't been followed up.

    Jeez, Rivers only named on the extended interchange bench?

    Anyway, will be interesting to see the final 23 tomorrow, and Sunday arvo can't come soon enough!

    Presume Sharp and Heath go out of that. But who’s the third? Tholstrup? Maybe Melsham will become our break glass/reduced minutes 5th on the bench.

    Good team.

    I’m sure Latrelle will make it

    Some of T Mac and Heath to play

    will be interesting

    Someone has to be the second ruck. Mihocek needs to come back into the side and Kentfield will go out. The other option is bring in Mihocek and Heath but that completely unbalances the forward line.

    It's happening mate :-) Both Brody and Max have been named.

    Delayed Latrelle announcement due to Koz being out of the state (my opinion)

    Heath out or he’d have been announced today for club debut.

    Suspect Sharp & Melksham the other two

    So Culley and/or JVR to share back up ruck duties, considering Heath hasn’t been mentioned for club debut

    Nor has Latrelle - and I'd be shocked if he's not selected.

    That said can't see Heath being selected

    Not sure we need all of Petty, Lever, Turner and T-mac given Saints don't have an overly tall forward line. I suspect T-mac will miss.

    In all the pre-season training I watched, Culley never once contested in the ruck!

    Feel sorry for Bill Laurie. A real trier but looks unlikely to make it

    At least he'll have cricket commentary and pigeon racing to fall back on

    Culley?? Huge mistake? Plenty of clubs will use 2 Bona Fide Ruckmen per game this year and if we dont we will get spanked, mark my words. If Max doesn't like it.. too bad! Moose time looming. Jumped all over Norf and got dropped ????? Kings first mistake!

    Kings FIRST mistake?

    The fifth bench spent Is perfect for an underdone Melksham, who can ideally play about 50% of game time.

    Petty a little lucky to get a gig if his role on Tom Lynch (2.3 in a half) iwas an indication of things to come.

    T Mac, Heath and Sharp to miss is my tip.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • 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.
