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

Posted

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.

Posted

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.

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 ;)

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

Posted

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.

Posted

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.

Posted

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...

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
