Dees by 24

Dawes to kick 5

Viney to have 30 touches

Howe best on ground

Also the more I watch Dom Tyson the more he reminds me of luke hodge

Really curious to see how Dom Barry is used in his debut game.

Has been a tagger at vfl for last several weeks. Who will he match up on for Footscray? Liberatore is almost impossible to negate as he's that inside player - I'd like to see Nate Jones go head-to-head with him, though I suspect Picken may be given the job there.

Dom Barry a chance to run with Macrae, perhaps, as a player who's around the same age as him?

Actually, on a day like today, probably a good thing it's being played at Docklands (for the supporters at least).

Maybe as a defensive forward. Could be the sub also.

A must win today.

No excuses.

Yup

Will be a massive fail if we lose this one considering their outs

Lose today and we may struggle to win again this season.

That would be very disappointing.

Win and confidence can grow.

Please win at that shiitbox venue.. :)

Our outs are not exactly unimportant either...McDonald, Cross, Jordie...also a first gamer coming in as well as a player with speed but lacking in skills when it comes to delivery by foot. We should win, but I would equally not be surprised if we lost...it is a game that could go either way.

Our outs dont compare to Ryan Griffen on his own, they also lost Grant and Roughead two important structural players

They also have a debutante, maybe even 2 come to think of it

Simply no excuses today

I disagree as they have a team that is probably better balanced than ours at this stage. Anyway, time will tell.

@melbournefc: Dom Barry is our sub today. Nathan Hrovat for the Dogs #afldogsdees

Jason Tutt out for the Dogs. He has been replaced by Fletcher Roberts.

Hopefully the woman's match is an omen, it worked last year! The boys win I say we get the girls singing it with them in the rooms!

Interesting Salem stays in the starting 21. Big test for him to play well as a starter which he's only done once.

Barry will hopefully add some spark late as the sub, although it's defensive work that's got him in the team.

Not feeling too positive about today but I'll guess we will find out.

I was watching the women's game and was very impressed. The women's game is a very watchable one. Good skills and high quality footy.

I don't think you can categorically say we should win this. It will come down to who takes their chances - last time the Dogs did exactly that and beat us. It certainly looks a fairly even contest on paper.

BTW who the hell is Fletcher Roberts?

Tall Defender forward who did a Pre Season with us. We were actually going to pick him up in the rookie draft the same pick we used on Jai Sheehan. But the Doggies beat us to him.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
