The future has almost taken control of this team. Sometimes injuries aren't such a bad thing

Liam to be super sub

Isn't it great to see this young team up and ready to have a go!! Can't wait to see how they gel together. There could be some out-of-position, some being-bumped-off-the-ball easily, and some tired legs late in the 3rd quarter but we get to see our list on display, and hopefully they can take the game on.

And please, Dean Bailey, do NOT start the game with a spare man in defence, and play Watts in the forward half of the ground.

Jurrah for the sub - I hope. This could be a wake up call for him PLUS he could wreak havoc with fresh legs in the last quarter.

I really want to see Strauss get a chance to show his foot skill.

I really want to see Howe play his naturally attacking game.

I really want to see Gawn making life difficult for Ryder and Bellchambers.

I get to see Scully running again.

And Trenners returns with his skill nad poise.

I feel like Big Kev. I'm excited!!

Talented exciting young team on paper, but we are in for another belting . Let's hope we let the shackles go a bit more this week

Lets hope not. What I really want to see is Strauss, Morton, Bennell all lift their intensity at the hard ball. No room for footsteps this week.

We've made more changes than I expected, given we were already so inexperienced. It's nice to see Trengove and Scully back though, and seeing debutants is always interesting.

However, I reckon we're missing ~11 best-22 players. The good thing is that of those who I don't think are best-22, all bar one are young players who could plausibly push their way into contention.

I also like the fact that Blease is an emergency, as I think he's the type of player that could be very damaging.

There's no way LR will be the Sub...A extra forward is needed on the bench... And Scully will be the one subbed off for one of the other three boys.

Agree, but with Warnock out I'd assume Watts will play a Maxwell type loose defender role, and Frawley and Rivers will take Hille/Ryder/Bellchambers.

Four debutants in 3 weeks! Good grief, they'll all need to start wearing name tags to get to know each other.

4 in 2 weeks plus 2 potential first gamers as emergency!

We could chalk up quite a few first year players by the end of the season.

In fact we have 5 players in the team tomorrow who have played 2 games or less! Thats almost a quarter of the team!

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
