NOTE: As Tasmania is a stand alone side the 12:10 rule applies and Sandringham is restricted to a maximum of 12 Melbourne listed players.

Five Sandringham players have made the VFL state squad although I'm not sure that Shane Valenti now qualifies as he is on Melbourne's senior list:-

  • Rod Crowe

  • Ezra Poyas

  • Nicholas Sautner

  • Peter Summers

  • Shane Valenti

Well only 7 have been named on the ground so there'll be 11 with the guys on the bench I presume

Unless there's a fitness test for some of the Sandy players. There'd be some doubt over the availability of Yze and Whelan. No Newton either... still no word on the extent of his 'injury'. There's also the possibility that we'll take two emergencies to Adelaide and they won't play on Saturday.

WTF, is Juice still alive or what?

Strange indeed that Juice has not been selected to play the last two weeks after serving his one week suspension.

Of course, CJ wasn't selected to play and turned up in the team against Williamstown so who knows what the hell's going on with team selection and our players these days?

Juice got a big knock to his shoulder at training earlier this week so he'll be out for a week or two. It wasn't anything too serious.

Anybody know if the game is being covered on a radio station?

Former Bulldog, Robert Groenewagen is being interviewed on Tassie’s ABC Grandstand. He says Tassie started a little slowly but worked their way in front late in the first quarter. The momentum has swung back Sandy’s way and they now have streaked away 9.11.53 to 4.6.30 (and I thought no Valenti, no Sandy!). The weather's better down there than it is in Melbourne!

He’s also speaking about the success of the Tasmanian Under 18 team which has won all three games in the Under 18 championships (Div 2) and now goes on to the First Division and will play SA on the Adelaide Oval in its next game.

Hawthorn which plays four home games at Launceston has more than 40% of the local Auskickers registering as Hawk supporters. It seems to me that this idea gives some credence to the concept of establishing a base at Casey Fields where the population is growing enormously.

How balls is it that they're broadcasting from the game but not actually calling it? I turned it off. No point wasting work's bandwidth for that pile of yawn.

On the Hawks memberships/Auskick registration, that doesn't surprise me at all. They had a big following down here already. I reckon their partial move down here has been a huge win for both their club and footy in Tasmania as a whole.

It is a bit of a yawn. Pity you folk down in Tassie - you're missing out on the Coodabeens! :rolleyes:

Half time:

Tasmania 4.4.28 4.6.30

Sandringham 3.6.24 10.12.72

I was wrong about the Coodabeens. Apparently they're going to cross to them after 1pm. They're now interviewing the great Tasmanian cricketer Brett Jeeves who's played one game for the Delhi Daredevils in the IPL. Awesome stuff!

Geeves is actually a pretty popular character down here. He's always been promising cricketer but this season finally delivered. Don't forget it's a Tasmanian radio station you're listening to Jack.

You're right by Geeves or is it Jeeves?

Sandy: 15.14.104

Tassie: 4.7.31

No info on players as yet.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
