The changes i would make for this week

In: White, Petterd

Out: PJ (inj), Bell

I think they will wait for round 22 to give Yze his farewell game in Melbourne on the 'G, White will play the season out now, and im not sure if they will give dutchy a farewell game. I would like to see Grimes get his chance but can't see it happening this year.

Thoughts?

May have played his last game for the club as I believe he'll be packaged in a possible Warnock trade.

I don't know why we'd give away CJ + something else for Warnock if we had the opportunity to get Warnock for 'free' (PSD) if Freo didn't want to play ball (ie. take Weetra ;)).

:huh: Haven't heard that one before.

Interesting, Western Australian? I don't rule that out as NOT happening... I just doubt it.

Pick any team that can't win (given current circumstances & injuries that shouldn't be too hard). I want the last game at the 'G against Richmond to be a live rubber, ie. we can go all out for a glorious win without jeopardising those two draft picks we've surely earned this year.

Just my prayer to see this season out :)

Bate must be dropped! Cant keep him in if we a using the "picked on form" policy

look l don't what game you were at last week but Bate hardly deserves to get dropped!! some of you blokes are hopeless and would drop everyone if you could. Watch out boys don't make ONE mistake otherwise you're gone :wacko:

So the same team that has played for most of the year then?!!!

Ok, six months ago maybe we could've talked about trading CJ to Freo, to give him a fresh start as much as anything else.

BUT, he's stepped up, is a real contributor and surely part of our youth program. Would be way down the list of priorities to move on.

And at the emotional level, with the idea of 'doing it for his own good' removed there's only the simple fact that he is the son of a Demon's champion who grew up as a Demon.

Anyway, back to next week's game.

Wonaeamirri is out of form and does not seem to be having much impact. As much as he's loved we must not forget he's a teenager and will have trouble sometimes with the week-in week-out wear and tear.

I can see Yze coming in, based on Sandy form.

Obviously PJ is out, with either White if available or Meesen... Meesen in... I'll be darned.

Possibly Garland in for Frawley.

A side note, has anyone else noticed that Cale Morton is a bit of a travel specialist?

Last week over WC was great, no doubt there, but...

Geelong at SS - 22 disposals, 2 goals

Adelaide at AAMI - 18 disposals, 3 goals

Fremantle at Subiaco - 20 Disposals, 2 goals

He didn't kick a goal at the 'G until round 17!

Good signs for saturday. C'mon Cale, get that Rising Star!

I think Petterd's a good chance. Did Yze miss for Sandy because he was the 'first' emergency, or did he have an injury/illness concern?

Possibly Garland in for Frawley.

Frawley doesn't deserve to be dropped IMO. I'd definitely want to bring Garland in, though.

Yze was listed as injured with a knee problem. If he's fit I'd bring him in for Wonna, we've all seen what he can do but he isn't impacting at all over the last month. Hope Petterd gets a go, and Garland should come in if fit. I'm not a Frawley fan at all yet, but he's shown enough to play out the year.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    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
