I'm shocked at the non-inclusion of Sylvia, seems as though DB is sending him a big message. Ricky Petterd in a forward pocket will be interesting.

My guess at the final bench:

Jones, Jetta, Martin, Dunn

That Ruck Division of ours would be the most inexperienced ever to represent an AFL team i am guessing. Not the Best Look!!!

Keep Petrie to a couple and we will win this.

Harvey and Wells are a danger but I just changed my tip.

Melbourne by a couple of goals.

Good to see Sylvia not in the squad.....he needs to be sent a good msg and missing one nab cup match means nothing, hopefully making him earn his way back into the team will save his career....

tbh positions don't mean a great deal.

And pretty sure Sylvia was never going to play after his indescretion (unless I interpreted what was said incorrectly)

Posted

no wonna, no maric. hhhmm Jetta might get a spot on the bench as a forward option otherwise we look very one paced down there.

Jones and Martin definate playing, leaves one spot.... I'll go the Bennell over the Chen gang

Posted

I need Cheney to play :o

And I still can't see Martin playing due to team balance.

Posted

Of the interchange:

Int (from): Jamie Bennell, Kyle Cheney, Nathan Jones , Neville Jetta , Stefan Martin , Lynden Dunn, John Meesen

Jones and Dunn pick themselves. The Coach has already said Meesen, Spencer and Johnson will never play together, so that rules Meesen out. Which leaves 2 of Bennell, Cheney, Jetta and Martin.

I'd go Bennell and Jetta, with Martin only missing out as there's already enough tall defenders, and Cheney loses out to

Bennell for pace.

Good luck to the first gamers whomever they end up being, and to Jared Rivers on his 'comeback' game!

Posted

Ni Sylvia = epic fail from the selection committee.

Posted

Also no Buckley, Woneamirri and Maric. Damn.

Posted

Just heard on the radio.

'Sylvia has served his 1 match suspention... simply didn't make the cut... will be playing vfl this week.'

I think this is a terrible decision. He stayed out late FFS. he's a young guy, he wasn't getting drunk, he wasn't taking drugs, he was just out late.

OK, so he served a one-match suspention, but why punish him more than neccesary? Completely out of proportion punishment for the crime.

Sylvia is in our best 18, full stop! No doubt. He has had a full preseason and was looking to fire this year.

If anyone can justify that Sylvia isn't in our 22 is wrong


Posted

Look at our laughable forward line, and we leave Sylvia out LOL

Looks like the coaches have started the season in worse form than any of our players.

Have you watched the preseason matches ? Save for one half against Sydney Sylvia has been terrible. A very overrated talent is young Col. Zero footy smarts. Very happy to have Petterd take his place. He's earnt it.

And Buckley is named, Traj.

Buckley is in isn't he? or did I miss something?

He can fire up against the pies.

DB did say apart from a half against Sydney, Sylvia's preseason form has been ok at best.

Posted

The backline looks ROCK SOLID...

The kangas will have to rely on their midfiled to kick goals....

Posted

Oops, I missed him.

Named as ruck rover.

Posted

Slyvia has promised and promised and promised...

But has rarely delivered!

Good on the coaching department for making the call.

I hope slyvia learns from this that he can't take is spot for granted

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
