Butler

He knows he has to perform. No excuses. Completely over injuries.

Agree

The emergencies are the interesting ones for me. CCJ? Does that mean there is a question mark over Soldo?

[big tone]

I would have liked to see Markov get another crack at it when I heard Stackman was out.

I think we all know what Butler brings- not much.
Strange choice IMO.

[mightytiges]

Last chance saloon for Butler you would think. It's also a rare showing of all 3 amigos from 2017 in the one side this season.

I would've thought Markov might have got a go before Dan given Oleg has kicked a few in the VFL since switching forward.

Not a bad looking team and they have 2 trucks, will be interesting to see how they go.

Typically they bring us down to their level and guaranteed to start a mini melee at some point of the game in Melbourne signature style

Not sure why some on here give you crap.
I appreciate the track watching and information you provide.
Its a benefit to all. Except seemingly some who seem to enjoy the sounds of their own voices.
Keep it coming

Beat or at least contain the Dees on the inside and you've got them. Melbourne conceded something like 85 points from turnovers against the Saints while their own score was mostly made up from scores from stoppages. They've also been running out of gas in last quarters this year.

With May out and presumably Lever getting Lynch, one of Frost or Oscar McDonald will be forced to play on Jack. So they'll be caught short in defence. They don't have both Tom McDonald nor Jetta in attack either so they are light on up forward too. With Preuss brought back in they are going to swap him and Gawn forward to create tall target.

There's no easy games though and without Cotch we can't afford to be complacent.

  I’m predicting we win by a minimum 7 goals.

I agree with the exception when he presents contentious points of view as facts. Then, you leave yourself open
