NAB Cup Squad


Demonland

Recommended Posts

Pointing out the obvious, naming 48 players really doesn't give a real indication of who will play on Sunday. Its almost every listed player!

There's only 29 players there. The numbers are their guernsey numbers. As has been said above, three will be cut from the squad, and a further two will become subs, i.e. will permanently rotate with someone during the course of the game.

Good solid squad. With a number of key players unavailable through injury or not selected for other reasons, it's very pleasing to see the depth we are starting to accumulate. Bodes well for the future.

Two players can be subbed off and replaced for th eremainder of the game, sort of like how they do it in soccer.

I didn't think they'd pick Davey, but maybe they'll sub him out after half a game.

Looks like Spencer and Martin will take on Sandilands in the ruck. What a great test for them. We may find out if they're good enough to be our future ruckmen.

Out of the side that beat Freo last year go Robbo (5 goals), Bate (3), Mclean (2), Johnson (1), Valenti (1) plus Dunn and McNamara.

Back in the squad come Green, Warnock, Bennell, Grimes, Spencer, McKenzie, Bail, Bell and Maric.

Added this year (if picked) for their first games - Scully, Trengove, Strauss, Joel Mac, and Fitzpatrick.

Looks like we have a better defence and more options in midfield (esp with Grimes) but we've lost a bit in attack.

If we're building the team from the backline, then let's see if we can hold Freo to 80 points or less. Our average last year was > 100pts.

of our best possible 22 it would be nice to consider Bruce, Bate, Watts, Jamar and on their 2008 form Woenamarri and Garland for this game.

The forward line relies heavily on the Jurrahcane..........probably Green will camp there for a fair bit too.

I think in 2009 the forward line was quite efficient given the number of inside 50s the team averaged per game, now that the midfield appears to have been bolstered (see Scully, Trengove Grimes) maybe the forward line can score more from more opportunity.

Would love to see a regular forward line of:

Sylvia Bate Watts

Green Jurrah Woenamarri

Maybe get Morton resting there too.............

Just one more go at naming the sides for Sunday Little Stinga and you win a set of steak knives... ;)

I would imagine that Fitzpatrick is a tall option to give Spencer a hand on Sandilands. This is not quite what he was recruited for, but it won't do him any harm.

Let's hope not. Fitzy would be giving Sandilands forty kilograms. It might not only do him physical harm but leave him with permanent mental scarring.

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int

    POSTGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood

    The Dees played insipid, error riddled & uninspiring footy all night and in a lightning delayed match they eventually succumbed to Collingwood by 46 points at the MCG in the final game of the year. Thank God this season is finally over. Bring on 2025.
