Rookie elevation

All the Jacks

No inference at all. It's just that my auto-translate app isn't working and I was having trouble with the first half dozen words of your post but I did get the gist of it. :)

Anyhow, it wouldn't surprise if there were two rookie elevations this week and the inclusions of Georgiou and Jetta will IMO prove to be more valuable additions to the team than many would think.

LoL; Its the late night glasses... they well just won't work

    And I hope no-one tries to tell me that will be Cameron Pederson

    Fitzy and Pedersen between them - 2.5

    Howe - 2.5

    JHK/Byrnes/Blease/Bail/Toumpas between who ever plays as small forwards - 4

    Midfield - Watts/Vince/Trengove/N. Jones/Michie/Tyson/Cross - 4

    Fitzy last year showed he can be good for a goal a game at least when he's in form. He got one most games and kicked a few multiple efforts. Pedersen as a key forward might be just ok enough to get a goal a game if the midfield and backline provide something.

    Howe has the ability to have a 50 goal season if used close to goal in a team with solid ball movement.

    The small forwards and midfield goals will depend entirely on how well the team is playing. Play well and the goals will take care of themselves.

    From what I saw of Pedo at training, he was working his butt off (can't believe I am saying that after what I saw last preseason) and will prove many of us wrong.

    He was also doing a hell of a lot of work training as a forward.

    FB: Georgiou Frawley Dunn

    HB: Grimes McDonald Terlich/Clisby/Strauss/Jetta

    C: Watts N. Jones Trengove

    HF: Michie Pedersen Toumpas

    FF: Howe Fitzpatrick JKH
    Foll: Spencer Vince Tyson

    Int; Cross, McKenzie Choice of: 2 from Bail/Byrnes/Blease/Matt Jones for last bench/sub spot

    That's my guess. Hope they play JKH for a full game. He brings energy that we need at the start of the game. Can't decide who I'd go with for the 6th defender but at least against the saints compared to against Hawthorn they should have a rotating midfielder who's a questionable forward more than a very good forward.

    If we win the clearances and use the ball smartly and quickly we can win. That can definitely be high possession and sharing it around but we have to do it quickly and confidently.

    I believe the rookie elevations will be announced today.

    Clark should be put on the LTI list giving the club two spots to fill.

    Georgiou and King are my tips.

    Surely not king. I would have thought they'd let him ease into things at Casey. If they don't give jetta a crack now they never will.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
