Changes v Freo

Featured Replies

Not sure about the love for Fitzpatrick - watched on Saturday (wasn't a great example, tbh) but he looked a fair way off AFL footy.

I suppose you can say that about half our team ;)

 

Inns: WATTS (If fit and should play Forward)

BLEASE ( pace)

FITZPATRICK ( just got a hunch he needs a game)

Outs: TOUMPAS

TRENGOVE

SELLAR

Don't mind if Jordie stays in, he is the best tagger we have, just someone needs to tell him...DON'T KICK IT !!! Handpass handpass handpass

In Watts

Out Toumpas

Just settle the team for once

 

In:
Watts

Blease

Out:

Toumpas
Tapscott - Another 11 lousy posessions at a laughable 55% efficiency, and no goals as a permanent forward and people still talk this guy up as he

'gives a few good bumps'? Enough already


Fitzy had his worst game in a month on Saturday, if he was anyway half decent I'd be picking him ahead of Gawn who has had two terrible games, but I

dont think that will happen now...

IN: Byrnes (if fit), Blease, Watts (if fit and to play forward!)

OUT: McKenzie, Nicholson, Toumpas (inj)

FB: Garland, Frawley, Terlich

HB: Dunn, Sellar, Strauss

C: Evans, N. Jones, Bail

HF: Howe, Watts, Tapscott

FF: Gawn, Dawes, Byrnes

FOLL: Jamar, Trengove, Magner

INT: Blease, Davey, M. Jones

SUB: Jetta

EMERG: McKenzie, Nicholson. Pedersen

McKenzie & Nicho out for me due to their less then impressive performances last weekend, however I'd still take them over as emergencies due to Nicho's run and McKenzie being one of the few inside mids on our list in case there's a late injury forced change.

Time to stick Watts forward and Trengove in the middle where we drafted them both for. With Freo's injuries there's no reason why we shouldn't be able to give them a fight for their money. Lets go Dees!

It has taken seven rounds but pleased to see Demonlanders are finally keeping Davey in the team!

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
