you may be surprised with PETTERD'S inclusion this week, but you'll find he won't play in defence, but he will almost definately play in the forward line, in a Defensive Role on Joel McDONALD, who's been in great form running off half back, i just think you'll find he's been brought in to try stop that! And Nathan Jones will be a late inclusion for McLEAN, who from the whispers i've heard will be a late withdrawal with injury..

Just a few points for you guys! Cheers! Go dees!

I think you'll find that they take emergency players with them on interstate games, hence Jones not being named for Casey.

Looking forward to match tonight. Will be interesting to see how they perform.

Last time Jones played up there he had his best game and kicked 4 or 5 from memory.

Spoke to casey/melb official at game today

Did this official explain what the hell was the brilliant plan/ reasoning behind naming then dropping him?

Is he injured? :o:blink:

Said he was resting pretty much. Going up for experience. also saying that he was a little sore. But didn't leave out that he could come back in as the flu is rampant at melbourne as hughes and wheatley had it pretty bad today

So he's resting, he's sore, they took him up for the experience (why name him then drop him, when he could have just been the traveling emergency instead?), but he could play because of the flu <_< :wacko:

That is not at all silly or confusing.

From a PR perspective it wouldn't be the worst move.

There'd be a fair bit of media heat if we were to drop him - much easier to take him up and not play him.

If we were to do that, the news of his omission would then be buried amongst all the other footy chat that arises from the weekend's games.

afl website says jones in for bate

Very Happy that Jack gets another go.

Mathews or Sheahan shouldn't get any credit for their thoughts on Jack

Last night it was Jones in for Watts

Not that I should be happy that anyone is unwell, but I'm very pleased that Bate is out and Jack gets another chance.

Hopefully Bate goes on to infect the rest of the group and we can lose to West Coast next week on grounds of not being able to field a team ;):lol:

    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.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
