Would hope that this is a further use of the practice arena to utilise the features of the squad.

Maybe more of a run at Casey at a lower level to fine tune and yes rest for round 1 if needed.

Probably needs to give Green a run

Paterns systems structures all need to be trialled. I hope we have more than one

We cannot play all players in every match I think rotation could be a good asset as long as we win a few games with the team and pattern we choose for the particular opponent.

Why was Watts dropped and Fitzgerald rested!

Because Watts is in the mix for round one Fitzpatrick is a back up ruckman that hopefully we don't see at AFL level this year, he has a rest then resumes his VFL preparation, hopefully Watts is on fire and gets on track for round 1

Really nice, solid squad , its taller and more mature than recent year. I really like it.

Yet it looks to have good upside with some "potential" sitting in the wings that have to prove themselves to get a game - both physically & mentally.

Makes me feel very positive that we are now heading in the right direction. I really like it.

PS Cant wait to get Viney & spend those Scully picks

I honestly think that squad looks slow. For every thoroughbred there are 2 clydesdales.

What does everyone think re the result of this game.

Last game of 2011 Port beat the Dees by 9 points but I never thought we looked like winning

New FD

very similar players to then

Dees average pre season form

Port looking better than 2011

Played in Adelaide

Result dees by 4 points

However zero confidence

Watts dropped no Gysberts Grimes or Tappy.

So will it will look something like this:

FB: Garland - Frawley - Bartram

HB: Rivers - Sellar - Bennell

C: Jones - Bate - Trengove

HF: Howe - Green - Petterd

FF: Davey - Clark - Dunn

R: Jamar - Moloney - Sylvia

I: Blease - Joel Mac - McDonald - Martin - Tynan - Couch - McKenzie

Not a weak team, and with the inclusion of Tappy, Magner, Grimes and Watts for Round 1, we are looking to have a decent team.

Like it was yesterday OD! Fair bit has changed since then though i would think.

That is my worry Demonator.

The players are basicaly the same.

They have had only 3 games to totally change the way they play.

So far they have shown me little that they can excute the new plans.

Now I am wrapped if that happens on Friday

but I am not expecting anymore than a close win.

I just think we couldn't have been any lower at that stage last year and we only got pipped. I'm not saying we've all of a sudden become world beaters, but i just think 'enough' has changed for us to convincingly beat PA.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
