What has Newton done to deserve a recall ? He's been AWOL for weeks...please...at this stage we should be building a forward structure around Bate & Miller :angry:

he's had around 15 shots at goal for sandy in the last 2 weeks... kicked 4 on the weekend on a day that was from all reports an extremely difficult day for key forwards...

not only that, but his game 2 weeks ago included 11 one %ers, 6 tackles amongst 13 marks... not sure how he fared in these areas on the weekend, but i think these performances warrant a call up...

he's obviously in form, and Bailey said he will reward form... so lets bring him in...

Cale will be brought back this week no doubt about it. We need some skill round the packs with Davey gone and Cale plays that role to a tee.

Im predicting a 25 possie game this week from the rake man with an efficiency rate of 92%.

Bring in McDonald for McLean.

16 shots at goal in 2 weeks, 7 or 8 shots last week in terrible conditions for forwards with limited opportunities.

I'm not saying he should be in, but he hasn't been AWOL for weeks, he's played two pretty good weeks.

Garland will get Murphy. Martin will get Minson

I can see this happening for sure. I think Frawley will get a re-call in place of Martin though.

DB is quoted as saying those who performed well for Sandy are in consideraton. Frawley was close to our best on.

Is that the actual side as selected?

Bruce is in it, so I'm going to assume it's not your preferred side.

Don't think so Dan, it's too early and they usually name an extended bench for a Sunday game.

When do the players who are on the extended bench actually find out if theyre playing or not.

Are they told on Thursday they will be emergencies or are they told closer to game time?

That's unusually sensible from you Y_M.

I agree with your side. I might keep Bode for another week though. Unlike most I'm not ready to chuck him in the scrap heap yet.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs Fremantle

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
