[Jerry Lundergard 420]

Looks like Holland on Roughhead.

[Ewok 9]

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

[Miracle 89]

Think its the end for Jamar

I hope yze gets a run

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,939]

Looks like Holland on Roughhead.

Yeah I think so.

That defence looks atrocious on paper, against the best forward line in the AFL.

[DemonDave 1,092]

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

[deestroy08 0]

I'm genuinely thrilled to see Holland back.

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.

[Eastie Boyz 0]

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

[Don24 103]

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

[kieranbj 111]

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

[w00dy 146]

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...

[Eastie Boyz 0]

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

[Hards 2]

Benny Holland!

[Demon Jim 149]

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.

[Jaded No More 68,974]

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!

[grazman 7,451]

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

[Mono 455]

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

[Surfa 0]

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

[Eastie Boyz 0]

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

Yes. Tim Boyle of Hawthorn.

193cm floating forward.

Would require a similarly heighted defender

[rpfc 28,779]

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.

[45HG 1,559]

Please only CJ or Bode remain of those ins

[deanox 9,989]

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.

[Rampaging Demons 1]

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...
