Juice out for a week

Featured Replies

 

put him in against the Suns.. And move Green out of the forward 50.

 

....tut tut tut. Just put himself back 3weeks

I made the same error earlier on Newton. He is officially a rookie and cant be upgraded unless there was an LTI.

Further as he was allegedly rookied to provide a pinch hit 2nd ruck option now being well coveted by Martin, I dont think there is a role for him. I am also cognisant of Newton being the perfect tweener .....capable at VFL but lacking at AFL.

I think Martin has snuffed his opportunities. He would need further bags of goals between now and mid year to get a sniff.

Incorrect, Newton was our chosen elevated rookie at the start of the season. He is currently on the primary list.

Juice is dominating at VFL Level. He has been tried and failed before but I reckon he will get another chance at senior level this year as a full forward who can pinch hit in the ruck.

Did Bo Nixon get suspended for his low blow on Maric?

Newton seems to have an uncanny knack of becoming unavailable when he's nearing selection.

That's my understanding.

 

Bad luck Juice. He had to be on the cusp of selection with Watts having an average game.

That is correct. Available for selection all year.


Ah he was suspended for a week!

Jack Watts breathes a sigh of relief... although Bate and Petterd still better options

I think Dunn, breathes easier.

... although Bate and Petterd still better options

Which is why they've been scoring so many more goals than Juice at Casey.

Oh wait ....

Damn.

Read: Phew.

Likewise

He wa upgraded to the senior list weeks ago, actually in the last week before season commenced.

That was one thing I noticed JCB, I talk up Garland to all of my mates telling them he'll be the next AA KPB in years to come. On Sunday he was falling over everything couldn't punch and would have gotten towelled by KHunt at Full Forward. Always next week in footy :P

would have gotten towelled by KHunt at Full Forward

That's going too far!

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
