Are people kidding he is not in the best 22 right now? He played every game this year, who takes his position? We have so many average players that I don't believe anyone can deservingly take his spot.
Preuss in for Keilty who contributes nothing, Smith in for Melksham if he misses, which I think he will (short turnaround). Hunt to the backline to make up back 6 of Frost, O'Mac, Wagner, Hore & Salem. Hunt will need to play on Liam Ryan. Lewis in same boat as Melksham, may miss a week due to short turnaround. Unfortuntley noone good enough to take O'Mac's spot, who to me is the worse AFL footballer I have seen play the game.
Any chance for some positivity from Melbourne supporters?
How about getting behind the boys instead of acting like spoilt brats?
Yes Round 1 was disappointing but the last time we played Geelong we beat them in an Elimination final.
There is so much negativity going around atm from supporters it's quite ridiculous.
It's round 2 FFS and we have a very important game coming up. Let's chuck the dummy out of the cot when it is Round 4 and we are 0-4.
One change - May in for Frost
Backline to be: O. McDonald, May, Hibberd, Jetta, Salem & Hunt
Hore on bench (don't rate this bloke at all)
Lewis to come in for Hore if fit
I think Menzel could compliment our forward line. He is a gun player, let others do the chasing & tackling. Let him kick 40 goals a year.
HF: Vandenberg Weideman Melksham
