Billy Stretch doesn't think he'll get on the park and will remain the emergency.

Did you get any insight on who will be the other emergency?

I think it will vandenBerg he hasn't had a full pre season like the rest have had.

I think McKenzie will play and Spencer will be a sub and replace Jamar near the end of the game.

Your thoughts?

    I did not see Spencer today. I don't reckon he travelled.

    Where did I mention Hogan?

    TDI spoke to Hogan and Hogan said you mentioned him.

    I will bet my left nut that Frost plays forward tomorrow. Spending a lot of time on set shots.

    is that a HH type of bet?

    I was wondering about the preference for gambling the left nut, when I realised that the right is nearer to hand.

    Quick note re Frosty. A Wesley old collegian who played as a key forwarding the juniors. Played front and back at GWS he is a genuine swing man and very athletic. No surprise to see him play up forward initially. Don't know of any quotes where Roos said he was recruited as a backman. If replacing Frawley, remember Frawley played up forward last season.

    Good job on the training reports you two.

    Training reports are like crack to me.

    Better keep them away from Karmichael then. Too soon?

    Thanks for the reports peopels. Not long now.

    I agree, but i don't think Frost will be playing forward unless there are injuries.

    Dawes, Hogan, Pederson, Gawn, Watts, Fitzpatrick all ahead of him as far as tall forwards

    Dawes, Hogan, [Pedersen], Gawn, Watts, Fitzpatrick all ahead of him as far as tall forwards

    Watts isn't a tall forward, Fitzpatrick isn't ahead of him given he rarely strings two consistent sessions together and Dawes is suspended round 1, hence why I think he's in contention.

    he is 196 cm, and has kicked bags of 3-4 playing as a key forward, i'd say he very much qualifies, I rate Fitzy, but it is a big year for him.

    I think Pederson, Gawn, Hogan, Watts is plenty of tall targets for round 1, even without Dawes

    Me and a mate are stuck in night class at uni...anyone know if its being streamed on AFL.com.au? Or a live stream somewhere?

    the only place you could stream it would be through the foxtel go app. Which is what I'll be doing at work until I finish at 5:30. :ph34r:

    3 and 4 aren't bags. He doesn't use that height and has taken about 1 strong mark a season for his career. Fitzy has some moves, but hasn't done enough to get in this squad.

    Hogan, Pedersen and Gawn is probably the plan for round 1. But if one of those get injured Frost could be next in line.

    There's also the possibility that he plays key back along with Dunn and McDonald, but after a tall forward/ruck from the other side gets subbed out (and after we sub out a ruck or key forward of our own) that Frost gets swung forward. The sub rule has created an opportunity for swing men.

    It's been streamed through the AFL LIVE app which has a free NAB challenge trial.

    It's also March. Skip the class and go to the pub.

    Or send Howe forward for the first match with Frost in the backline?

    Again, an option, but I've got him about 30% for round 1.

  • Quote

    In place of Hogan?, why I thought most wanted him in rd 1 team as gorilla minder, this is just a shake down run after the four hour flight, I doubt whether they will be doing anything except loosen up, set shots are the perfect thing

    So no one told you Frost was playing forward? Trouble in paradise...

    Vindicated.

    Lefty will be relieved.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
