changes for next week

as a team

GROW SOME !!!

get into it...dont watch... shepherd/hit...dont watch.... run with /provide backup...dont watch.. make them earn it...dont watch !!!

we have enough spectators at a game... we need 22 PLAYERS~!!!

the changes for next week are between the ears....its attitude and application

Exactley

 

Ok, so these aren't the changes I WANT but after reading the player review, I expect that Bailey will do this:

OUT: Warnock, Jetta, McKenzie

IN: Sylvia, McDonald, Bennell

Shame cos I like those 3 blokes, and think they are all part of our future, but I get the impression they're not amongst the favourites for the coaches.

Can already feel my frustration with Rivers, Bruce, and Miller building for next week... Will do my best to give them ANOTHER chance

Will not happen, but would like to see (based on yesterday's shocker):

OUT: Rivers, Miller, Warnock

IN: McDonald, Sylvia, Cheney

Also, one A. Davey needs to show up this week.

Yep, good call, fair call......love flash and have no doubt he will play a beauty this week as he does every 2ND week!


Be very careful when quoting Bruce's efficiency rate is it counts a handball to someone about to get crunched (who then gets crunched) as an effective disposal.

Which brings me to the motion for Champion Data to bring in a new stat called the "CAUFU" stat. the first three words are: "Complete and utter..." It represents, identifies and verify's the footballer responsible for such acts which directly or indirectly cause a turnover of severe magnitude.

I'll let others decipher what the rest of it is. Here's a clue: There were plenty of these yesterday. Go figure. :wacko:

I really think we need to start to play a second ruckman this will enable Jamar to push forward. With only 1 option available we need to bring in Spencer. Where is Martin?

Fumbled unnecessarily? ;)

 

Out: green deck chairs

In: blue deck chairs


Any source for that? And any sort of ETA?

Out: Jetta, Rivers, Mckenzie, Miller

In: Bennell, Cheney, McDonald, Sylvia

In: blue deck chairs

You're all over it like a fat kid in a lolly shop, aren't ya?

Keep the faith, those deck chairs will deliver :wacko:

Believe he has had an operation on his "hip". Don't know what is wrong. Unknown when he will return.

Edited by longsuffering

Jamar is a ruckman. Currently he is a frequently dominant ruckman.

Why the need to stick him up forward and take away from one of our strengths?

Jamar needs a rest at some stage and at the moment when he takes the 5 min out of the ruck we get smashed. I would like to see him rest up forward as a deep target for 5-10mins per quarter. We need to play a second ruck we can't keep having Miller, Dunn and Sylvia ruck they get smashed.

As of round 13 we're arguably the worst team in the competition. West Coast could give us a run for our money, but at least they beat us at the G. The good news for Bailey is that we're under the radar. The media have gone very soft on us.

But, we all understand it's a work in progress. While we have players that are clearly not good enough for us to become a top 4 side then we'll tread water until the talented youth develop. So I don't get too many jollies contemplating one spud replacing another.

I'll say. No thanks to S.Baker, and to the lesser degree S.Johnson and the MRP.

My team for this week would read:

FB: Bartram Warnock MacDonald

HB: Cheney Frawley Grimes

C: Garland Jones Sylvia

HF: Trengove Bate Davey

FF: Bruce Green Hughes

Rucks: Jamar Maloney McDonald

Inter: Rivers Miller Scully Morton

In: Cheney, Sylvia, Hughes, Junior

Out: Jetta, McKenzie, Watts, Dunn

Where is Martin?

Injured.

Out: green deck chairs

In: blue deck chairs

LOL. Very good. :lol

A good summation of the situation.


Gysberts 2 weeks away.... hurt his back. Injury list on afl website.

So a four week injury in essence factoring in the week off and the weekend just gone?

Glad we heard about that two weeks after the fact. :(

Nah not really Jack, I doubt it occurred in the Pies game. Gys was at the boxing camp - I am wondering if it happened there.

It was mentioned pre-game that he had hamstring tightness, obviously back related.

I didn't notice Gys at the boxing camp Ox?

Thanks for the update..hopefully a problem soon alleviated as these can become troublesome. Surely we've had our share of damn fine players over the last 20 years cut down by injury at one stage or another, the Ox being one, Glen Lovett, Stinger, Jakovich, Lyon...on and on.

Really think we missed Gys in the middle last week, even being young he is an addition into midfield rotations and a good one at that.

I am pretty certain I saw him in photos. He is a good clearance player thats for sure. Another one of our boys with a small frame but willing to get to the bottom of packs. It's good to see.

Good work Ox....had to satisfy my curiosity but there is the Gys in the background!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
