The Friday-Night-Football-Macaffer-Effect

Watch Ablett play for frees in the 1st. Should get a few.

Jordie and others need to make him earn those frees. I noticed (and I dare say Jordie would have to) that Gaz pulled up with a limp arm after a big tackle last week... Might have been the same one he fractured last year. Target it.

We will lose by 8 goals.

Surely it will be a lot closer than that.

I've tipped the W. I saw enough last week to think we can roll them on our home ground. But either way I think it will be close.

Gold Coast are similar to Carlton and us in that they haven't been fantastic in terms of scoring power, if we make it a tough contest it will be close, they also had 22 marks inside 50 against them last week, if that happens again Dawes, Frawley and Dunn will get the job done for us.

Jones will be all over Gaz. ... did a great tagging job last week whilst getting plenty himself.

It's worth noting that Gaz is a different beast to Marc Murphy.

I said last week that we would lose to Carlton by 45 points.

So this week i'm saying we will lose to Gold Coast by 45 points.

Consistent. Mindless, but consistent. :)

Gee I hope the Fitzpatrick inclusion doesn't mean Dawes could be a late out.

Clisby very, very stiff

Good chance Jetta is primed to play - doesn't seem necessary to upgrade him otherwise.

I think Spencer might be a bit sore, not Dawesy.

Hopefully no change. Although I'd like to see Jetta in.

So we can assume Jetta has been elevated to the senior list?

Yep... There's even a thread about it ;-)

Would almost be as significant. God help us if Fitzpatrick rucks a full game

Ah good to c I am on top if things Dee!!!!!!

Thanks

Of the seven named on the interchange Kennedy-Harris, Matt Jones and Kent are not named for Casey so unless someone doesn't come up due to injury it looks like one of Evans, Fitzpatrick, Jetta and Toumpas will fill the last spot.

bit early in the season to play nostradamus dd36

Never too early... Nostradamus played Nostradamus 500 years ago!

It seems to becoming much more competitive for places which is healthy.

Reckon JKH may be rested for Jetta.

Rested? As if being the sub three weeks in a row wasn't enough rest?

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
