I'm not sure what pederson has done to be selected at all, and Nicholson the only thing i can think of is he may have the pace to go with the smalls of carlton, Strauss and kent i can see being in the next top 8 Dees side so it will be awesome to get some game time into them

Not much use having the pace to go with the Carlton smalls ...He needs the ability to RUN at them and maybe beat them occasionally !!

good luck Dean Kent, give them hell son

Do AFL rules allow him to wear the cape, and his underpants on the outside? Or does he have to wear the suit and the glasses?

Surely Pederson is an out!

He was woeful last week. Barely got a touch. He needs to learn how to get to more contests.

IC: Strauss, Tapscott, Evans

Sub: Davey

It was between Blease and Davey for the sub. Davey is a better sub player.

Blease to get form at Casey and come back to play full games.

Wrong Kent. Unfortunately Clark's out of the side. Coincidence . . . or something else?

Commentators everywhere will have a field day if Clark ever takes a hanger on Kent's shoulders.

"A Clark Kent special! Is he a bird or a plane?!" etc.

Jamar... Groin ????? Really ?? The usual "injury" excuse to drop an out of form player.

No, just the usual negative Demonland response to an injured player. Got nothing to say? Not a problem just Make Stuff Up.

He hasn't even trained this week.

Whoa !!! If it's just the usuall Demonland negative response to an injured player then why bother highlighting it ?? Everybody must be commenting similarly to every injured Demon player if that's the case... !! He has played his best games with the Dees , I believe.. Loved him when he was capable but sadly those days could have passed him by.. We just need to move on as we do with several others... There are other ruckmen we need to concentrate on and groom NOW !! Jamar will not be part of our future...Hardly ever marks aroud the ground or kicks goals anymore.. I am not picking on him just seems coincidental that when some of our players are performing even worse than others they seem to find an injury which didn't appear to happen during a game ????

Call me crazy, but I actually really like those outs. The ins are a bit of an unknown quantity, but they're all goers and relatively hard runners.

The "outs" all distinguish themselves by (low) output, application and intensity.

The "ins" would appear to offer a lot more.

Might have a modest wager after all.

Ins & Outs relate to the previous week rjay, not the squads named Thursday night.

As to the changes, I can't argue but I despair over the misuse of Blease. He should be playing inside the F50 at this stage since his ball use is not good enough to play elsewhere. He has shown he knows where the goals are and we will clearly struggle to score this weekend given the opposition and side we've picked.

I watched him closely last week and when he was chasingback through the centre twice taling Ash Mcgrath he was blowing very hard and struggling, that is what it takes to make it at this level, having speed is one thing but digging deep and gut running when your tired is what makes players

Quite happy with this week's selections [from what was offering] with the exception of dropping Davey for Nicholson. Davey has been good off-the-bench this year and is more likely to produce a couple of freak goals than Nicholson is!

I'm gonna call it now.

I reckon we'll get up this weekend.

Hehe, nice one Mac. Someone has to be able to say they called it should the miraculous happen.

Personally I am feeling a sense of inevitability about this weekend. Moreso than usual. Not a pleasant feeling.

Thanks 'diesel', I thought they were relating to the squads. Didn't notice Jamar there as well.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
