I didn't see all the game but I think I got the gist of it.

By the way, Howe won't be dropped just like Frawley wasn't last year.

Out: Lumumba (injured), Garland, Harmes, Brayshaw

In: Jetta, Jamar, JKH, Tyson

EDIT: Updated.

Jamar will be a definite in... Wether they go with 2 rucks or Gawns rested. Gawn was run off his feet by Kruezer, think his cooked. Brayshaw needs a rest, his looked tired for the last 8 weeks, don't understand why he hasn't had a week off yet. Howe should do a Henderson and just walk now...

Rest - Hogan, Brayshaw, Harmes, Gawn

Bring them in for the last round, maybe we can jag a win and give supporters some false hope.. which is better than none at all.

Harmes needs to go back to Casey, turned it over every time he went near it.

Harmes was awful, turn overs galore and how many times did he get caught holding the ball???, far from ready

Deck chairs on the Titanic

Really? Even Demonlanders can't find anything original to say?

The dilemma we have is we need both more height and more pace. Adding Spencer or Jamar fixes the first problem but significantly impacts on the second.

In: Tyson (if fit), Jetta. If either are unavailable, add Matt Jones for his pace.

Out: Lumumba, Harmes.

Rather than Matt Jones for his pace, what about Fitzy? Everybody should look at his highlight when he sprinted the length of the ground and then roasted a goal on Saturday. The Coburg player had no hope of catching him. With Fitzy we get a back up ruckman who can play both ends!

Why would you drop Harmes if he was the only one going in and getting the bloody ball....

Because he turned it over half the time. Love him, but needs a rest and needs to learn to pace himself and use it better.

OUT: Lumumba (inj), Dawes (inj), Harmes, Brayshaw

IN: Spencer, M.Jones, Jetta, Riley

Reckon Dawes might miss with a knee. Harmes and Gus to be rested for the big trip. Spencer to play mostly forward (kicked a bag for Casey) and give Gawn a chopout. Jetta hopefully right to go.

Agree with this. I just forgot about him when trying to think of a replacement. I'm yet to be convinced that he's going to make it...but I am convinced that Matt Jones's AFL career is coming to a very rapid conclusion, so Fitzy would be a better option.

It is hard to believe we are following up the misery of the last 2 weeks with a visit to Perth to face the top side

6 losses in a row to Freo
Ave margin 69 points
Last time we played them in Perth 90 point loss
Head-head $1.08 vs $7.50

They are playing like a bunch of gutless, disinterested hacks right now

20 goal loss, at least, very much on the cards

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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
