Changes for next week?


jumbo returns

Recommended Posts

I've posted more times tonight then in my entire time at demonland, honestly i dont believe any changes in personal will make any difference, they're not treating game day like game day, its just another chance to train on another specific thing. when a player tries to do something different and attacks the game when he should be sticking to the structure there practicing it gets brought up in game review, doesn't matter if it works out or ends up in a score against, game day is getting treated like a training drill. is this the right way to teach a team to win? i dont know, but i'll be paying my membership again next year again hoping it is, and if it's not i'll be paying again the year after hoping we get it wring in 2014. so the cycle goes on.

Maybe give them a chance to have a run and build up some cohesion without making 4 or 5 changes every week?

Not sure - just putting it out there.

I think there has to be at least two. We need to bring in one of Sellar and Martin as a second ruck. And Jurrah is injured, and a proper forward replacement is necessary - neither of those two are any good forward.

Would love to see Taggert in but he really is underdone and it would be unfair on the kid. Sometime over the next 4 to 6 weeks I would like to see Taggert, Sheahan, Davis and Cook getting a game. It's time to stop going back to the tried and true gunna's and prima donna's like Silvia and Moloney.

I think Martin will come up next week and maybe Tappy but couldn't see anyone else at the moment oh yeah forgot Couch, he has worked hard to get a run and deserves it.

Well researched post stuie , meticulous and not short on detail . I'd find room for a retired Liz Ellis but on an overall basis , it's hard to argue with your "replacement" team !

Well it would be a better skilled team.... and much harder at it than the blokes who "played" this week.

Do you have a replacement coach?

Ins

Dunn in as a permanent back

Couch in the middle, gets the ball and handballs to a player running forward, not standing still.

Spencer in as a big awkward passionate presence.

Moves

Frawley to attack, add some class, straight line leading, experience.

haha, so can I assume that if a player was dropped twice they're being sent straight to the Casey 2's? For what its worth I reckon we should really go down the WNBA path, they would strike some fear in the opposition.

Bring in Couch for Sylvia,he couldn't be any worse could he? He'd have 10 times the hunger as Sylvia.

I wouldn't play Maloney again until he re-signs,players who want to stay at their club have signed by this time of the year.

There is no future in Dunn,Bate,Bail,Joel Mac,Bartram-don't want to see them in the team again.

Would like to draft the best VFL mid again.

    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,
