Just considering some of the players still to come into the team.

Liam Jurrah

Jared Rivers

Cale Morton

Jack Watts

James Strauss

Austin Wonaemirri

Sam Blease

Neville Jetta

Given our current form, who would these guys replace?

Jordan Gysberts, Luke Tapscott and I've probably forgotten someone. And I'd say, the same team that beat RIchmond and Brisbane deserves to walk out against the Roos next week.

Liam Jurrah - still a long way away

Jared Rivers - will get his chance wghen we get an injury, or cop a belting

Cale Morton - automatic in

Jack Watts - doesnt deserve a game til he tears a game apart at Casey

James Strauss - hasnt done much to excite, to be honest

Austin Wonaemirri - will get his chance if he can stay healthy

Sam Blease - hasnt earnt a spot

Neville Jetta - loved this guy last season, and cant wait to see him back in the team

Woldnt mind an update on Addam Maric and Tom MCNamara either.

Well given the current form at casey, none of them except Rivers and Chaney areY ready. Wonna is playing in the casey 2s and looks well short fitnesswise and IMO is at least 3-4 weeks away from senior selection (although it would be nice to have him back for the NT game which by the way after the weekend is looking more formidable than we might have expected). JW's current form doesn't justify selection and is probably some weeks away from selection. Gone are the days when we select players for "PR" reasons as we did last year. We now have a realistic chance of making the finals this year and so every place in the team has to be fought over and justified on current form. Having said that, if Cale Morton and Liam Jurrah show reasonable form at casey when they come back I'm sure they will be selected immediately given their experience and the positions they play which will need boosting before the finals series.

Sam Bleeze is playing in Casey 2s and is still unfit. Still walks with a distinct limp off the field. Jetta is playing at Casey and certainly by the display at the wekend look slow. Don't know whether he is injured or unfit but was very sluggish at the weekend. Strauss IMO is 12 months away from senior selection. Is far too loose as a backman, and in any case has Rivers and Chaney before him.

A smokey we might consider later this year is Fitzpatrick. from the little I saw of Casey 2s at the weekend he is remarkably skillfull for such a big man, a great mark and very quick. I canseehim being a great foil for the Russian in the ruck and up forward eventually. Shows great potential.

Also PJ played very well for Casey at the weekend and in my view would be next in line if either of jamar or martin went down injured, particularly since Spencer look as though he has done a hammy again

Maric was one of the best at Casey at the weekend. At the moment though can't see where he could fit into the seniors particularly as he would needto be selected before Bail and very soon Morton. Can't see that happening.

McNamara had a subdued game on Saturday

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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.
