Changes v West Coast

Benson, your ins are good, but run and carry will upset the Eagles

Couch and Magner are sloggers and slow, slow, slow. Even if they get elevated, you can't play those with Jordie, so tough decisions will have to be made at season's end.

Watts forward and stays there...I agree. Not a backman, now that he's been tagged. That's some solace that he can take away as opposition coaches respect his disposal efficiency.

Gillies - out. Not sure about this chap.

Bail, in....run, run, run.

Swing Nicho, 2 x Jones, 3 x Jacks, Sylvia, Garland, Jordie, Tapscott, Terlich, Howe, Davey and Byrnes. Burst them out for 10 minutes each - I want to see a record number of rotations. There are enough bloody coaches to sort this out.

Mitch to start in the ruck with Jamar forward, then swing around at the 15 minute mark.

Hey, it can't get worse, can it? :)

I've come back to this post Jumbo. I've got to disagree re Watts... the guy had games thrown at him like he was strapped to the handball wheel.

He hasn't shown ANYware Near enough intensity. & for me, he has run out of opportunities.

Its time for him to go, back to Casey for a months intensive VFL intensity... & to grow some.

We cannot have players who won't go in.

We can have Jordie Mac & Magner but no more as long as these 2 are a rotating pair. Magner can win his own footy in/under, where jordie is more a run with. We need ball magnets, or the closet to it.

Nicho imo was a big disappointment on Heppell. just as Wartts was on his opponent. Their Essendon opponents ran riot in the early part of the game. I'd have them both out.

We are paying Rodan so much money, he has to be an IN. We need some experience on the team, and it isn't Rodan's fault. He is a personality, and a leader.

DL, I'm not a JW enthusiast by any stretch of the imagination, but until Dawes makes his debut, we need a tall forward.

Make him run around without worrying about someone's tail.

If you read the VFL review on the club website, the raves are for Tapscott and Bail. They will both come in..... Nothing is surer.

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Megg

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.
