Also take into consideration we can elevate a rookie...

Even though the game is 2 weeks away we might know some of the changes earlier with casey having a sunday game. I would imagine they wouldnt want players playing sunday then friday night

Danny Hughes

Jordie Mckenzie

Liam Jurrah

All are playing good footy In the vfl and with the dees not playing this week so it gives them one more chance to back up there form ahead off selection.

Brad Miller

Michael Newton

Stef Martin

Jamie Bennel

Are the more obvious options

Were not looking for much more than good signs from as many young kids as possible whats to loose?

I hope we dont just do the 1 change as usual.

How people can not have Bennell as an inclusion is beyond me. Especially when we're playing a quick side.

AGREE

with PJ out are you sayign JaMAR will be the only Ruck?

POSSIBLY OUT robertson...

Newton is long gone, as the commentators said after his last AFL game - he is merely a good vfl player nothing more

I know that H, but Bennell wasn't dropped & deserves his spot back, - Maric isn't doing enough just yet, a kid for a kid.

Jurrah is a kid.

Bartram for his speed, run & carry, he's a kid compared to Wheels.

Belly is playing to prove he's worth his spot on the list. He needs another week or 2.

Tommy Mac just missed playing this week apparently with sore groin. N/A.

Maybe he was due for a rest? He is only a young guy and not worth burning out, if we can get 10-13 games in to him this year I think that wouild be great.

He already is the only ruck.

Martin can take the ruck duties in the back/forward line (depending which end he plays), and if Jamar really needs a rest Martin can take a couple of the center bounces (although I hate that idea knowing that Martin is not a trained ruckman and is risking injury).

At the end of the day, we can win or lose as many ruck contests, but it means nothing if our mids can't get their hands on the ball, and our second ruck is consistently turning the ball over.

Well not 100% correct, it stops their ruckman from getting it straight to their mids.

Jamar is the only ruckman playing.

PJ should be dropped and with four Bumbres rucks injured and Ryder suspended, Jamar is more then adequate. Hell I would have Newton rucking against the Bumbres, that's how well PJ is going.

Just play Stef Martin. He's part of the future too.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
