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!

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
