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.

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The Demons are back at the MCG once again and will once again be fighting for a spot in the Top 8 as they come face to face with Bombers on Saturday night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    VOTES: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    Captain Max Gawn has a considerable lead over the injured reigning champion Christian Petracca in the Demonland Player of the Year Award. Steven May, Jack Viney & Alex Neal-Bullen, make up the Top 5. Your votes for the win against the Eagles. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
