Changes v Fremantle

I know it's early, with Casey not even playing for another hour, but I really need to move on from yesterday, and I reckon it would be helpful to a few others as well...

Geez it's a bit of a "anything can happen but probably won't..." week for mine, I keep expecting big changes, even some risk taking with our selection seeing Neeld has been talking of "experimenting" for the last month, but alas it has not come to pass (much to the befuddlement of many).

May change after 4.45pm today, but at the moment the changes I would LIKE to see (as opposed to what I expect, which is what I usually post) are:

IN:

Couch, Cook, Davis, Gysberts, Petterd, Jamar (pending), Green (pending)

OUT:

Bail, Magner (rest), Dunn, Spencer (pending Jamar inj), Bennell, Bate (pending Green inj), Watts (have a feeling he won't pull up from a hammy)

Only reason I have Moloney still in is because I have Magner coming out for a rest as it's starting to look like he's being run into the ground.

Now, having said all that, and going on past selections, this is what I expect from the match committee:

IN:

Jamar

OUT:

Spencer

Lame.... Anyways, have a crack guys and girls.

Best guess ...

In: Couch Cook Jamar Gysberts

Out: Bail Magner Spencer Bate

I reckon Dunn may come out before Bate this week, especially seeing Lynden got played out of position all game and Neeld seems to be giving Bate a big chance lately.

 

Best guess ...

In: Couch Cook Jamar Gysberts

Out: Bail Magner Spencer Bate

RR how could you possibly leave in Bennell? another 8 kick game and twice he short stepped a collison / tackles in the first six minutes of the game. No sure Tapscott should be in either.

You're right OD. Add Bennell to the outs, if anything for the near attack he gives you every time you see his name on the team sheet!

Maybe bring the kid Davis in for him. What have we got to lose except of course another game of footy?


Will wait and see who performs for Casey today. Cook, Gysberts, Strauss and Petterd will need good games to get them in the mix, we know what Green and Davey can do.

You know what's interesting too? Remember the good old days when we used to pick players from our depth that would suit the matchups/strategy against whoever we were playing that week?..... Good times....

Now it's like we know we're going to lose, so who can come in for all of the under performing players?!


I would suspect/ hope Strauss gets a full game and comes in for Bennell.

Thanks Jamie, but in my opinion you're done at the MFC.

Would love good games also out of Jetta, Gysberts and Petterd to put pressure on selection this week. This guys should be best 22 and I'm hoping some form for them will bring about some back season wins for the Dees.

IN: Mt Buller

OUT: MFC supporters

Based on yesterdays turn out at a home game at the 'G in perfect weather you'd have to think we are looking at 1500 to turn up for us at Etiihad. We play terribly there, and we are up against a Ross Lyon side that is deliberately learning to play ugly footy. Sounds like a recipe for record low numbers.

Out. McDonald. Bail. Magner.Spencer.Dunn

In. Petterd.Jamar.Gysberts.Green.Davey.

Best guess ...

In: Couch Cook Jamar Gysberts

Out: Bail Magner Spencer Bate

Think this is just about spot on.

Maybe Bennell, not Bate, but that's about it.

If I decide to go to the crapper that is Etihad it's because Cook/Gysberts/Stauss/Davis/Petterd/Couch/Tynan/Jetta. Come in. Doesn't have to be all of them but I'd rather watch what could be the future for us then watch blokes who should be delisted play.It's this time of year every year that I really start to get very bored of the same old same old. So when we lose from now on I would like to walk out and talk about how good some of our players will become. Just give me something MFC cause all i'm getting now is a massive urge for scotch after every game.

My thoughts as well.

In with the new and out with the old!

And how is Scotch going in the Amo's?

Ha ha dunno about the amo's but I get the pun.

In: Jamar, Green, Gysbert, Couch, Davey

Out: Spencer, Bate, Magner, Bail, Bennell

Brilliant, except Neeld loves Bail.

So I'd say Bail stays and Davey doesn't get a recall.

In some delusional state, I actually think we are a good chance to win this week. Shame it's at Etihad.

Best guess ...

In: Couch Cook Jamar Gysberts

Out: Bail Magner Spencer Bate

Not bad though would leave Bater in. Very Interested in Williams and how he's coming along after the illness. Did Cook kick Ass today V Port or is it a token gesture?


In: Jamar/Fizpatrick, Green, Couch, Davey

Out; Spencer, Magner, Moloney, Bennell

FB: Macdonald Frawley Nicholson

HB: Watts Rivers Tapscott

C: Bail Jones Howe

HF: Blease Garland Sylvia

FF: Davey Trengove Green

Foll: Martin McKenzie Grimes

Int: Dunn Couch Jamar/Fitzpatrick

S: Bate

IMO Neeld will stay conservative and not rock the boat too much.

If Jamar is right then he will come in for Spencer. As I posted previously Neeld likes Bennell and wants to develop him as a fast leading forward. IMO> a la Eddie B. Fair call. Thought the same a few weeks back.

Future or the Past?? Couch or Green? If Green is to play on next season then he get the call up. Given this is not likely IMO Couch will play his first game.

Outs: Spencer (Will be back), Magner.

Ins: Couch, Jamar.

On what I saw at Casey today

Inns: Green, Fitpatrick, Couch, Gysberts ( these four were outsatnding today!

Outs: Spencer, Bennell, Magner, Moloney/ Bail/ Dunne/ take your pick!

AND if Jamar fit??

Cheers for the great efforts with an "on site" supporters view.

Only seen Fitz once. Maybe was a bad game. He didn't look up to it. Do you think he could be NBT. How about Cook. Never seen him play either. Not kicking goals but a lot are calling for him to play? What ya reckon on today's effort. Last one ...Leigh Williams?

Out Bennell Moloney Dunn

In Couch Gysberets Jetta

In: Green, Couch, Gysberts (Jamar if fit)

Out : Dunn (susp), Magnar, Nicholson (injured shoulder, if not dropped)

Green to take Rivers spot up forward, Riv to go to back line where he is best (Dunn to never play key back again please)

Magnar looking more like a good VFL player by the week - kicking not up to standard.

Nicho dropped - as you can't play Nicho and Bail in the same side - both too big a liability with the ball in hand. Bail can find the ball and works hard both ways so should be given a run of games to truely test foot skills at the top level.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
