Looks a short side if Strauss & Kent are holding down the CHF & CHB positions. Although at another look I guess Davis and Pederson can take the key roles, but still looks a bit unbalanced around the ground.

Isn't there still that rule that if you're playing against a non AFL affiliate side you can only have a total of 12 AFL listed players playing?

If so that'll explain why Taggert & Tynan are named in the 2nd's.

I hope that is right and would explain the selection I guess.

I asked a couple of coaches about Jetta, told he needs to work on a couple of things and to put some solid consistent footy together at VFL level, spoke to Nev himself today at training, not a happy camper but detemined to get in to the AFL side.......as for Taggert and Tynan still very young and still growing (Taggert told me today he had put on 5kg during the preseason).....the Club is developing them slowly.....coaches happy witn both ot them.....I prefer this approach rather than throwing to wolves if not ready

Still not a good sign if Taggert who we picked in the 30s in the draft after a full pre-season is playing Casey seconds. I would hope he would be aiming to start running out 25 plus possesion games for casey.

as stated above, Melbourne development indeed.

Bay before you start sounding like some of the other posters on here, Taggert was out most of last season with stress fractures in his back, something you don't mess around with, they are making sure it doesn't happen again, part of being young, same with Tynan who has had a myriad of soft tissue......... Michael Evans also had same problem with his back but with same cautious approach back playing...............we have been a bit unlucky

Thanks for that, any key points/events from training?

The only real point, get on really well with Jack Viney, went over and had usual chat, told him to watch out for the comparisons with other players, laughed and said he had most of them covered........watch out tomorrow night

They have some time. At some point we are going to get this stuff right, we can't assume the fate of those that have gone before will be the fate of those there now.

Just a point on Taggert, been playing him forward, he can kick a goal, probably building versatility into him, he is a good size, and if still growing........Tynan asked me whether he looked bigger, which he does, said they have him working on his frame, they are obviously going away from the 'skinny kid' syndrome.....

also spoke to Mitch Clisby who I think might be a quick developer this year.....looking fwd to testing himself in the VFL

and finally because there is no traiining report topic...spoke to the Kiwi international rookie (won't attempt his name, can't remember it) asked why I have seen him at last two training sessions...he is over for a solid six week block of training with the Club, so we are serious, told him his kicking has improved, said works on it everyday, loving the challenge and is going to give it everything he has got

I would be [censored] off too when you play real well in the nab cup yet don't get a sniff at all come round 1 when you have duds like luke tapscott who showed nothing all summer.

Surely Taggert isn't playing VFL reserves. That is a serious worry if the case.

Can only hope they are playing it safe after his injury interrupted season last year. The kid can play and has a seriously good kick on him, something a lot of his mates don't. So lets see how the year pans out.

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    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

    PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    The Demons head back to Melbourne after an embarrassing loss to the Dockers to take on the Magpies at the MCG on Kings Birthday. With a calf injury to Lachie Hunter and Jacob van Rooyen possibly returning from injury who comes in and who goes out?
