Let him play. I want to see him play. Give him a chance to feel like a demon and be amongst the boys.

I think it would be better for Hogan to play in NAB cup for a few reasons 1. I think that being left out of the team would hurt his motivation as he would not feel as much as part of the team as ever

Hogan won't be doing anything different to what he'd do in simulated match practice at our training sessions. The more opportunity he gets to play against good opposition, the better. He'll learn a fa

Fair enough, we can't play Hogan during the home and away season and we all have to accept that.

But I imagine Hogan would be mightily disappointed and even [censored] off at the club if denied the one chance to play in the dees jumper in 2013, form permitting of course, but I'm sure he knows he's good enough to compete already, without needing to be told.

It is only my opinion not the end of the world.

No I do not remember RF's first game.

That is exactly why I would prefer he did not play.

However can we get over JH there are another 40 players running around on Friday week.

Any interest in any of them?

Old Dee I am interested in all the players we have on our senior and rookie lists. This Friday plus the NAB Cup will show us what we have and if the pre-season has paid off with the extra 15% workload. What I am looking for is that we are competitive and not fall away halfway through the game.

Our draftees from last year suffered a lot of injuries and we saw bugger all from them.

I really want to see Tyan and Taggert

I also want to see more from Tapscott after his first decent pre season.

Has Evans recovered from his miserable run of injuries?

Has a miracle happened and Bail learned to kick

Lots to see

and there is some kid called Hogan they reckon can play a bit!

Tynan, Taggert, Evans, Bail, Mckenzie, Strauss, Nicholson, Mcdonald, Terlich, Jones (the new one), Byrnes, Rodan, Hogan, Dawes. Players I will have my eye on for different reasons. Some to see if they have improved skills, some to see how they fit into the team and some to see if they will bring some form.

The team photo's front line was all new. Every face. We have a lot of newbies to judge. I know it's only NAB cup but with so much competition for spots we should be competitive at the least.

I thought you would have your eyes on the guy in your DP, just playing his first game for the Red and Blue and all.

    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,
