Curry & Beer 5,444 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 White looks to have the better mob, for mine
waynewussell 6,976 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 No Jones, Warnock, Gysberts Green As well as Frawley, Campbell, Newton, Wonaeamirri, Tapscott, Davis and Fitzpatrick... and, of course, Davey, Jurrah and Bennell
Guest Thomo Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 As well as Frawley, Campbell, Newton, Wonaeamirri, Tapscott, Davis and Fitzpatrick... and, of course, Davey, Jurrah and Bennell Green may be on a modified program because of his age, and the 3 all stars must be fit, so that leaves 10 players not ready for the game. I thought the injury list was less than that.
Je Roos Salem 661 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 I'm surprised Jones isn't playing. Funny story actually, on Monday morning i was in the city, and I saw the Dees training at Gosch's paddock so I got off the train and watched them do their private training session. Unfortunately it finished soon after I got there, but afterwards Max Gawn and Nathan Jones were doing intense running drills and I said hi to them. Jones looked fighting fit

sylvinator 96 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 I'm not too upset that 10 players are not fit enough to play the intra-club game 2 months out from the start of the season proper. Especially considering the guys who aren't playing. Warnock, Gysberts, Tapscott, Davis, Campbell and Fitzpatrick are not in our best 22. I want all of them to get back playing and improving at vfl level asap, but it really doesn't impact too heavily of round 1. Gysberts is probably the best of that lot and he's recovering from a soft-tissue injury so he should easily be fit by the nab cup. Only 4 players are not playing intra-club game from our best 22- Jones, Green, Frawley, Wonaeamirri. Wona is not injured, he just needs to catch up on fitness after some family tragedy over the summer. Green and Jones should easily be right for nab cup as far as i understand. Only Frawley is in doubt for round 1, and he should play by round 3. Of those not playing, only Green and Frawley are genuinely critical players to our team and structures. The real issue is going to be keeping the rest of the squad fit before round 1. Last year we lost Morton, Sylvia and Jurrah just before round 1, and it really impacted us. Hoping for more luck this time around
DEELIGHTED 16 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 well hopefully they make it a twilight hit out. i'm flying in to Melbourne on friday afternoon, so it'd be awesome if it's say 6.00pm, olympic park, with a bbq for the families. as good as it is to watch the boys as much as possible, its only a hot out and they are probably not too fazed about it fitting in with the public as they are trying to get game plan right etc. just a thought
DEELIGHTED 16 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 "hit out" . i have thoughts but cant spell
Demonland 74,443 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 We would be remiss if we didn't thank the MFC for making the team lists available in advance of tomorrow's game. As indicated by WJ it's been a running sore at some other clubs where no lists or inadequate lists are privded to spectators. Thanks to the MFC we can download the numbers and have them for reference at tomorrow's game.
Demon Head 299 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Yes, and a good touch that the MFC players are wearing their regular numbers making it even less likely that there'll be any confusion. I can still remember the Jack Watts lookalike ring in from Casey last year who wore the number 4.
KC from Casey 7,211 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 47 - Luke Beehugo (Casey) Luke should be a player of interest. He's a 20 year old half forward who hails from Darwin and came down last year to play for a rejuvenated Garfield in the Ellinbank League. Now he's at a VFL club in a praccy match with AFL players.
ox_5 163 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Thanks in advance for anyone who can get down this morning and provide an update and hopefully some pics. Best of luck to the boys, just get through with no injuries!
Whispering_Jack 31,368 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 I'm at Gosch's Paddock with a group of Demon fans who are either unemployed, taking sickies or officiating today. Even the club mascot's down here! Teams appear to be as selected.

I can only surmise that they want to sell more memberships before their fans get to see their list actually play.
Whispering_Jack 31,368 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Whites dominating. Goals to Bate and Max Gawn! Colin Sylvia in form.
mikeod 21 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 I'll be tweeting updates. Twitter.com/mikeod0909
Whispering_Jack 31,368 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Halfway through the first quarter and they've taken a break. Now they're back.
Whispering_Jack 31,368 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Ricky Petterd looks like he might have tweaked his hammy.
stranga 328 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Ricky Petterd looks like he might have tweaked his hammy. and so it begins, some players just dont have it
stranga 328 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 I was talking about not having the luck, not talent. Not that we know if anything is actually wrong with Ricky, but he tends to struggle to string together more than a handful of competitive matches.
Bring-Back-Powell 15,555 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Very sloppy first half! Sylvia bog as usual. Bate, Dunn and rookie Evans have goals.
Demonland 74,443 Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Gawn is icing his knee on the boundary.

Not that we know if anything is actually wrong with Ricky, but he tends to struggle to string together more than a handful of competitive matches. ah right, my apologies my faith in the injury prone has been reinstated with seeing Sylvia, Rivers and Moloney on the park consistently the other side of the spectrum is McLean. Yikes.
