Just heard on 3aw James is out for 4 weeks. Im guessing with the bye he will miss only 3 games. But geez he is going to be a massive loss next week with Cloke and Lynch up there. Lynch not as much but he would have been great on Cloke.

Bloody hell. Is there any chance our good players can stay on the park.

Most last year probably would have said Frawley, Clark, Grimes and T-Mac were in our top 5 players with Jones. There's alot of truth in its not the number of injuries but who they're to. Would nice at least at some stage in the second half of the year to get our best 18 on the park together.

Bloody hell..........it is all Neeld's fault of course, surely. Or Jack Watts.

It would be interesting to hear the views of posters on how they suggest we try to deal with Cloke next week. What can we do?

It would be especially good to see the suggestions from anti-Neeld posters who will probably blame Neeld for forgetting to clone Frawley when Cloke kicks 10 goals.

So options?

McDonald - underdone and out of form

Sellar - can match Cloke one-on-one but will killed if he goes for a run

Davis - we haven't seen him yet but you'd think Cloke will be to strong

I love Davis' effort from the couple Casey games I have seen but this match up will be some-what reminiscent of Zac Dawson playing on Ant Rocca... we all remember how that ended up.

Cloke is a beast and can chop up the best when he gets his mojo up. He man handles Chip at times.

I don't mind Sellar as he is a tryer but that's really it. Still he is our only option and I squirm while writing that

I suppose that's the reward for doing a steller job on buddy. Sucks that he'll be missing for games that we'd classify as in the winnable zone. Not to mention Cloke next week.

DemonOX that is one of the more disturbing avatars, it's freaks me out a little.

Gorgoroth, I have never been a good looking rooster so no point in hiding it!

It is what it is!

Options for mine are:

Garland: Our most in form defender. but has shown when matched up against Kennedy in Round 3 that he struggles against the giant forwards.

Sellar: Will get burned when Cloke gets on his bike

Pedersen: Probably gets first crack. Has the height, build and agility to do it. Skill level is the question?

Davis: Would be setting the poor kid up to fail.

Tom McDonald: You'd think would require a week at Casey.

Joel MacDonald:Towled Cloke up in Round 2, 2010 and certainly has the agility and physical agression to go with Cloke. Due to the size difference though you'd need to heavily rely on the like of Garland & Dunn to peel off their men and help Joel out. I reckon he would be worth a look.

If rumours are to be believed, we may have to learn to play without him there.

This is an opportunity for someone to put their hsnd up and demonstrate that they're the man for the job.

Oh well - one can dream

They should use this month of free time to convince him to sign a contract extension and stop him leaving under free agency next year.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
