Final team for sunday

Hopefully Petterd can take Cheney's spot off half back, where he exploded into AFL in 2007. I'm glad Cheney's been omitted. Was offering us absolutley nothing the last 2 weeks. We seem to be gifting games to players who clearly aren't up to standard at the moment. I guess we have no depth, once we get a few injuries.

Maric not in the team is a sick joke right? We have an exciting fwd line of Watts, Jurrah, Robbo, and Maric lining up.....in the VFL.

McMahon has no confidefnce in himself, treats the pill as a hot potato, good teams expose him

So what about us ;) ?!!!

Disappointed about Maric but I would hope that there are valid reasons behind the omission and that we will see him extremely soon.

Otherwise there might be a mess being made in here :unsure: !!!

The Bulldogs were pleased that he left for the tigers. Well they're supporters did.

Maric had surgery over the summer so it maybe that Bailey feels he needs another game at VFL Level to have the match fitness for an AFL game. Certainly when fit he will be a vauable addition in midfield and forward.

Newton has promise. He can take a spectacular grab and applies good defensive pressure. His challenge is to take more of the less spectacular marks, do the regulation mark and goal. Hopefully the kgs he put on over summer will assist. Certainly opposing defenders would be more concerned at being one out with Newton than Pettard as hte ball comes in long or on the lead.

He fall to the ground to much for me, i hope he can change that this weekend.

If you had to pick one game to watch this weekend, would you pick the casey games or the DEES? It would almost be tempting to take the casey games, considering the future talent there to watch.

Luckily we can watch both.

ok ta ta for now

Crumbs!!! I am dumbfounded Maric has not got a game........ I am desperate to see him in the fwd line crumbing the taller fwds we have. No one else comes within a bull roar of being able to do what he does at a fwds feet in the match day squad.

Is it just me or does Marci seem to be given a lot less of a look in than a number of other players (read Newts, old Col etc..) getting a game in the 1's?

MARIC IS NOT YET FIT ENOUGH.

How hard is that to understand?

What is the point of having him out there underdone & unable to run out the game..?

Exactly. Its like complaining that we don't have Neitz in the side cos we need someone to kick goals.

For Watts' sake!

The point is - There's no way Brocky or PJ are 100% either! The kid may only be 80%, but he's been BOG at Casey 4 the last couple of weeks, let him run into that final 15-20% of fitness at the DEES. Giving him a bit of reward for effort too- not just for him but 4 us as well. ;) Sh*t, you telling me you wouldn't put him ahead of Slyvia, or Newts or PJ at the moment?.. (yes, SLYvia)

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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
