Ben Ken for Garlett!   WOO HOOOOOO! Go you beauty! :roos:

Sounds good

 

Looking forward to the summation by those who were there, and their thoughts on who may have earned a promotion.

You said worst over the last four weeks. He may well have been our worst yesterday but I don't want us dropping match-winners after one bad game.

He was bad yesterday but he has enough credits in the bank to hold his spot.

Easily the worst (still in the side) in terms of averages/output in the last 4 weeks Titan. If he performed reasonably   yesterday i would agree with you. 4 in a row with a horror 4th game in there... Ben Ken time!!! :P

I know they are getting done today but West Coast plays Darling and Kennedy up front, both genuine tall forwards. I want to see Hulett or Weideman both given a chance to be that second genuine forward over the course of the year in the ones.

No.

Harmes has looked spent the last couple of weeks. 

Ben Ken for Harmes is a much smarter decision.

I honestly wouldn't make too many changes from the side that played yesterday... Agree that Jeffy, Kent, Harmes and Oscar have not been great but with Dunn going down today I think we make 1 change only... BenKen for Kent unless injuries force other changes...

OMac needs to keep playing and is less of a liability than Olaf imho

Both Harmes and Kent were abysmal last week.

Kent improved slightly yesterday, Harmes did not. 

Harmes goes first.

If it's wet next week then I'd be happy to keep Kent and rest Harmes for BenKen

Why if wet?

Because I think Harmes loses his effectiveness with a slippery pill... Whereas Kent tackles more effectively with precipitation in the vicinity ?

Fair enough.

IMO, Harmes' disposal has been atrocious whether wet or dry. It was no better vs Port last week in the sun than vs Hawthorn. He turns the ball over almost every time he touches it, at the moment.

I think that we can all agree that on today's form and given our opponent next week, we will be seeing BenKen ready to make a statement on QBD... Who misses is anyone's guess

    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
