Changes for next week

Featured Replies

Any source for that? And any sort of ETA?

Out: Jetta, Rivers, Mckenzie, Miller

In: Bennell, Cheney, McDonald, Sylvia

The source is me.. He limped off the training track on sat morning shaking his head.

 

This week's injury report probably puts some dents in most, if not all, of the suggested changes here.

Junior is another 2-3 away, Gysberts isn't fit, and the report gave me no confidence whatsoever in Sylvia being right to return.

Coming off that shocking performance it's natural to suggest there would be 2-3 changes, but who at Casey has earned a promotion???

based on that common sense approach, no change then ?

Enlighten me why Jetta should stay?? PPoor today

OUT Jetta, Miller, Watts,

IN Sylvia, McDonald, Gysberts(all if available)

If Riewoldt plays, Warnock stays in, otherwise drop him for Cheney

"CAPTAIN James McDonald will miss Sunday’s clash against St Kilda at Etihad Stadium, as he continues to battle a hamstring injury.

Emerging ball-winner Jordan Gysberts, who claimed 26 and 25 disposals in his first two matches in rounds 10 and 11, will miss a couple of weeks with a back injury."

OUT Jetta, Miller

IN Sylvia Spencer


I'd like to see Bennell back in the side.

He was a spark plug during our excellent April and has the tools to be a gun player. Maybe a direct swap with Jetta.

Now that it seems Junior and Sylvia (probably) won't return my guess would be:

IN - Cheney, Bennell

OUT - McKenzie, Jetta or Miller

Jetta and Miller were completely ineffective last week and one of the two will pay the price.

Speaking of early season spark plugs, I'd like to see Rohan Bail play the last 6 or 7 games of the year to see if he has a future. He was a solid contributor in our early season wins. He has much needed pace and run which suits our coast to coast style of footy.

We need to add to our midfield no take players out of it, if we play Rivers, Warnock, Frawley, MacDonald, Garland down back we will get hurt against the Saints. Gice MacDonald the job on Goddard, Rivers to Kosi, Garland gets Stanley, Bartram gets Milne, Cheney to Buchanan, Frawley to the other forward.

Move Grimes into the midfield so my team has change slightly

Bartram Rivers Garland

Cheney Frawley MacDonald

Scully Grimes Trengove

Sylvia Bate Dunn

Davey Watts Green

Jamar Moloney Jones

MacKenzie Spencer Bruce Morton

In Sylvia Cheney Spencer

Out Warnock Miller Jetta

Ideal game for the red headed defender the Saints don't have a lot of speed.

You mean Schneider.

Don't think Rivers has the strength to go one on one with Kozi. And I don't think Garland has the height for Stanley.

Warnock to Stanley, Frawley to Koschitzke. Rivers out.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
