Changes v Collingwood


picket fence

Recommended Posts

Players will be dropped  in relation to our opponent - Collingwood, who are dominated by a whole pack of B grade midfielders.

I would love Peders in for Frost, but we need Frost's height and speed as a DEFENDER to counter Moore so this change is unlikely.

Garlett comes in for sure but I can only think of Bugg to be dropped and they play so differently it is not a good swap.

Bernie will go for a few weeks, so Brayshaw comes back in.

AVB has been seriously disappointing so far this season. 

I still think we brought him back in to the seniors too soon.  I think he needed a few weeks at Casey to get rid of the cobwebs after his injury but he wasn't given the chance.  Plus it seemed as though he was going to spend plenty of time in the midfield, yet he has been stuck up forward for the majority of it.

Ok thankyou. So who played on Waite/Brown/Petrie? And how did Stretch and Wagner play? Either of them to be dropped?

They rotated on them.  Dunn and McDonald spent most of the time on them, while I believe Lumumba spent some time on Brown as well.  I'm not totally sure on that though, others at the game might be able to give more insight.

Stretch was handy, Wagner was just okay.  Both should keep their spots for next week.

Vince will get 1, maybe 2 depending on how inconsistent the MRP want to be. 

IN - Brayshaw, Garlett

Out - Vince, Stretch (didn't do anything wrong as such, just reckon we need to give AVB more time). 

The other thing is - I don't want to see Frost play as a forward ever again. The experiment surely needs to be marked a fail at this point. Maybe bring Pedo in, and move Frost back.

I also don't want to see Howe play a flukey cameo and rub it in that he left, the pea heart. Presumably Lumumba gets the match up or maybe Wagner, - wouldn't be shocked if the brought Garland back to play on him (not saying i want that to happen, before all the hate is directed my way.

If Howe gets another game after the (lack of) effort he put in on Saturday then Collingwood are in big trouble. He was a ghost.

They won't drop him after one game especially when he is coming against his old club.

I think we've seen the last of Garland.  Hallelujah! 

Also think Jeffy is a definite in,  whilst one of ANB and Brayshaw gets a run. 

Maybe in: Jeffy,  Brayshaw 

Out: Vince,  Stretch

I don't think they'll drop him either due to the circumstances, but that's because they are in big trouble. His effort was pathetic and he'd be dropped in any other team any other week.

Frost, M Jones, Harmes, Kent. will be in the gun.

 

we won't see Petracca or Trenners, ANB, Brayshaw, Garlett and Pedders should come in. I doubt weeds would come in either.

No room for Pederson IMO. Harmes had five tackles and wouldn't be first out for me. Kent did kick four. For my money two changes is enough for a team that could have just as easily taken the points.

Garlett in for Wagner.

Someone in for Frost.

Regardless of todays outcome, given Casey Form last night I have both Weeds and Petracca in next week vs Collywobles!

The rest I will think about after todays game!

Looking at reports from those who actually attended the Casey game, I don't think anyone said the Weed was ready for a game yet, but you obviously know better.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
