Another big loss and no-one can even force their way into the 18. Is Wheels still crook? What's the latest on Rivers?

 

Hmm, so no Sylvia, Whelan or Wheatley all who may have been expected back? (Rivers and Carroll hopefully the week ater)...

I'm genuinely thrilled to see Holland back. :rolleyes:

CJ, if selected, will really, REALLY need to do something special cos frankly, he has done next to nothing to excite me thus far. Not sure about Jace Bode. And I also hope Yze plays.

Give CJ a fortnight as a tagger then a fortnight trying to find his own footy. If he doesn't show anything after that he's dead and buried.

If Holland is expected to play on Roughead I'm going to make him my Supercoach captain because he will kick 10

 

agreed, this is CJ's last chance...either stand up now and show you can be a player or start touching up your resume....

Perhaps Holland is picked to play forward and allow Miller to go back..........


if i was dean bailey my bench would read...

B.Holland, C.Johnson, S.Valenti, J. Frawley

J.Bode, S.Buckley, A.Yze

however i think he'll play buckley ahead of johnson...

Has CJ ver been given a decent run in the side? Needs to be played for 6 weeks in a position. Give the bloke a chance FFS.

Perhaps Holland is picked to play forward and allow Miller to go back..........

Oh please NO!

He needs to settle up forward.

Holland and Yze, very confused about those but lets wait and see the final team.

Our backline is going to get smashed without Rivers against Franklin, Roughead and Williams. Ouch!


If Benny plays he has to go forward, he's too slow and immobile (even more so than before) to play back. A lot of people forget that his victory against Rocca at the G last year was when Rocca was playing on one leg. I just can't see Dutchy being able to do anything other than stand in the hole if he plays back.

Yeah look he's pretty much a straight replacement for Jamar I would say. A big forward decoy, except every once in a while he can take a big grab... just shut your eyes if he's shooting for goal and you'll be fine ;)

If Boyle hasn't been picked neither would be needed down back

...Uh....Boyle? ....

i think they have done well and like my posts think they should put yze down back and benny in the forward line depending on where they need the experince.. the back line will suffer no matter what the do.. no rivers wheeels or wheats..

just kids and holland lol thats why put ooze there


Miller isn't a defender.

CHF, HFF, or Wing. That is it. Rest of the season.

Then decide wether we both should move on or keep going.

Please only CJ or Bode remain of those ins

out of interest, C Johnson, Buckley and Yze are all named on the ground for sandy, while Frawley, Holland, Bode and Valenti are named on the Sandy bench.

I dont know if it counts for anything, but usually the dees pick the starting 18 and the outs come from the extended interchange bench, so i wonder if this could be happening in reverse (ie the sandy defs are named in the sandy 18 and the interchanges could be moved up to afl)...

Bolded because I truely can't choose who will play out of these two.

EMG: Frawley, Bode, ?

I actually think Chip will get dropped. He hasn't been outstanding, hasn't been bad either. They obviously are thinking Holland on Roughead. Garland played to well last week to drop and we also have Warnock.

Yze will play I think. It's time to give him another go.

I am frightened! this could be a new record score....

That backline is one of the most inexperienced to have represented the demons.....

a question - who plays on buddy? if the birdman ripped us a new one last week, well....

we must be backing our midfield to do the job and win the contested footy and then that our forwards can hang onto a couple...

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
