IMHO:

Bartram for Bell - BOG for Casey, speed and endurance to run with one of the best midfields in the comp. Bell out due to collarbone unortunately.

Johnson for Martin - Played really well on weekend, Stef looks like he could use a rest. Geelongs forward line will be more of a hassle with the little guys, not the man mountains.

McKenzie for Morton - Cale needs a rest, and if Bailey has the aggots Jordie should get a run at home, give us a chance to see if he can step up.

Probably max of 3 changes, but Valenti, Whelan, Bennell and Miller are unlucky. Maybe Miller for Robbo.

Thoughts?

Why make so many changes to a winning side. Reward the players.

In: Watts

Out: Bell

Not sure if there will be many changes but would love to see Bartram back.

I think it is time for the sacred one to be rested. Yes that is Cale.

Out: Bell Morton

In: Barts (???)

Mclean looked in the wars on the weekend, He seemed to be limping a lot. Possibly out?

No way will Watts get sent down to the Cattery.

Jurrah may even be rested against those thugs.

No way. He had an awesome game

Agree, yesterday was his best game for MFC IMO. Obviously needs to work on his kicking but otherwise is developing nicely.

Guest Watts=Saviour

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE don't play Watts! A Backline like that will crush him, and the only thing he'll get of the game will be critisizm. He played well enough for Casey, leave him there for another week.

Rest a few players, bring in some poor ones.....doesn't really matter, it's Geelong at Skilled.....

:lol: Haha! Oh how I miss Carroll. And big Al.

Don't like the suggestions about saving the big changes for next week.. I'm flying to Canberra and I would love a win!

Although we are on 3 wins you could say we are really on 4 wins because there is no way that Freo will want to win the round 20 game. They can get a priority pick (after the first round) if they don't win more than 4 games. I think they will beat WC in the derby because WC can't afford to win any more games.

Therefore the only thing we can do is rest some of the play-makers for the North and Richmond games such as Bruce and Green, McDonald, Bate, Maloney and now Jurrah.

It's time to give Bail, Hughes and Valenti some games for their development and bring back Newton at FF.

Even then I think we will struggle not to win 5 games.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.
