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.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt
