“Dunny’s probably a little bit similar [to Brayshaw and Lumumba] – he hadn’t played a lot over the last couple of weeks as well.

“So they’re three that from a fitness point of view, we were able to leave out, based on the form of some of our current players.”

 

He's not ready to play, in the eyes of the coaches. Neither is Brayshaw. Neither is H.

You don't know better than they do. Neither does that other idiot claiming he wont buy a membership if Dunn doesn't play.

BUT he's been named emergency! You aint gonna name him as emergency if he aint right therefore he must be right!

My advice Lynden.... You are a much better player than Frawley Much Much Better so mate Check free agency !

If I were him I would be livid!

I'm sure many clubs out there ( Freo) would love your services!

Oscar Mc Donald FMD

This will come back to haunt us!

Matt jones is a liability and only makes this side worse... How he still gets a game is beyond me??? Is he Paul's love child?

I've been a massive critic of his, but he was good in NAB challenge and he can play that negating half forward on those dangerous half backs.

Apparently Paul Roos and Simon Goodwin know a bit better than a few members of Demonland, crazy.

I find the reactions here intriguing.  We've gone in with basically the same side that won 3 NAB games and played great footy.  Shouldn't they be rewarded?

With the new interchange rules the last thing we need is to play guys who are underdone and we run out of legs in the last quarter.  I think they've played it very smart and selected the right side for this game.

Is it a full moon? People forget to take their meds? 

Far out, settle down some of you. 

Couple of players left out due to match fitness. Footy these days you need 100% fit players

This is the biggest thing, why change a winning team by bringing in blokes who may not be 100% fit.

A new year, judge him by what he does not what he did in past years. His speed will be welcome, just his disposal and defence need to be kept tight.

In what universe and on what planet is does Oscar Mc Donald get a game in front of Lynden Dunn???

Answer?? NONE!

I'll Say it!

THIS IS THE WORST SELECTION DECISION OF ALL TIME FMD!!!!

I'm livid, this is potentially a game changing decision

If Dunn is right then he plays, Absolutely no question!

Huge Huge gamble and massive fail in my book!

Oscar Mc Donald FMD!

 

We're into our 3rd year under Roos. He isn't silly and and especially now we're competitive and on the up. Good game to debut but  even though he looked so-so during NAB, so did rest of the team at times yet still won.

We're no basket case and hes obviously proven his spot in the team internally.

3rd year, Trust Roos!!

Totally agree Oscar was a liability in all 3 nab games. He can't stick tackles

The guy is 28z he isn't going to suddenly change into an asset. Let's hope this is the last game he plays for the club

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
