CHANGES: Rd 02 vs Gold Coast
IMO Tomlinson will not be dropped after doing a full ACL recovery, after his first week back, in a winning team. Goodwin does not operate this way. Out: Salem In: Hibbo/Riv Smith to take Hunts role as 4th mid-size defender when Lever returns

2022 Injury List
I think Bowza has the foot skills to become the key play maker while Salo is away. He is not as good 1-1 or overhead but Bowza's class can make the difference

Bevo unleashes on Tom Morris
None of this [censored] slinging will sort out the real issues with AFL journalism that Bevo did highlight He just did it in such an unprofessional way that it was completely glazed over AFL journalism has cost the mental health of so many players - Watts and Tom Boyd come to mind. Goodwin was luckily in a position to be resistant to it. It continues to be the arm pit of the AFL and demonstrated by the trashy tabloid journos like Morris. No surprise he is of low character himself.

POSTGAME: Rd 01 vs Western Bulldogs
A lot of his work is done off the ball, mongrel punt article highlighted this well HOW IMPORTANT ARE BLOKES LIKE JAMES HARMES AND ALEX NEAL-BULLEN TO THE DEES? This kind of gives me a chance to look at team structure, because these two seem content to play the Melbourne way, and if the ball comes their way as a result, then great. If it doesn’t, but the team also wins, then great as well. And then you look after at the Dogs, it seems like everyone needs their touches. Yeah, they get them – Dunkley had 29, Macrae had 39, Bailey Smith had 33, Treloar had 26… they can get the footy, but their roles are… well, they’re hazy. They tend to step on each other’s toes inasmuch as they’re all after the ball all the time. In contrast, someone like ANB or Harmes doesn’t need the footy as much. They’re both okay with playing a role, making sure their piece of the Demon puzzle is ready to fit, and then, when it is their turn to go, they do so without hesitation. They’re prepared to play defensive roles if necessary, sacrifice their own games, and work as an individual toward a collective goal. That is what makes champion teams.

Those 50ms are soft as butter But Carlton look great on bursting out of stoppages, Richmond have collapsed under the pressure

Skills are still below par even with their added players

Very scrappy from both teams, not impressed with Carlton at all so far

CHANGES: Rd 02 vs Gold Coast
Agreed Based on past team changes, Smith has replaced Petty and Tommo came in for Lever today

POSTGAME: Rd 01 vs Western Bulldogs
When we're spoiling in our back 50 and rebounding we are unstoppable Imo it is our biggest indicator that the game is on our terms and was 100% confident we would win after we got that going late in the 2nd

Angus Brayshaw Re-Signs Until 2028
"Only a winger" Our two wingers Langon and Brayshaw were one of the key reasons for our success and one of our key failures in previous years. Short memories forget how desperate we were for two runners 5 years ago.

Demon Depth
Talking to supporters from other clubs i don't think they understand just how good our drafting, recruiting and development has been over the last few years. The big stars take the shine but there is a lot happening behind the curtains.

2022 Champion Data Rankings
Footy has always been more than just raw stats and calculations There aren't measures for heart, toughness, leadership, ability to play to a team system etc etc.
