Changes vs Pies (Queens Birthday)


What

Recommended Posts

Theres a very good chance it will be wet again on Monday ( QB )  I wouldnt go too tall.  As others suggest not much movement likely on teh back.... I think  BK put his hand up today.. Kent will probably stay because he CAN find the sticks  as can BK... They might have a day out.  Jeffy gets a reprieve....and a good talking to...as would Kent

 

Thats all I can see to be honest

Probably the kick start Ben Ken needed.

Yes, but he's been doing that at VFL level for a season or two. It's translating it to senior footy that's the issue.

30 disposals and 3 goals.

To be fair, he's been far more consistent than Kent and Harmes. Anyway, hope he's back to his early season form next week. Definite inclusion by the sounds of it.

Not to mention the motive for Kennedy to show up the Pies again :)

Justin Plapp just described his game as "massive" in an interview on Casey radio.

In Garland / Kennedy.  Out Harmes / Omac.   Kent and Garlett on last chances.  Not sure we have the right match-ups for Cox and Cloke with Dunn injured.

I don't think Garland will be coming back this soon. 

Frost to Cloke and T Mac on Lanky.

Cloke may get dropped though, he was very very average.

Garland's injured.

Frost might be the perfect match up for Cox, actually. Two athletes, neither of whom are particularly talented at football.

I didn't particularly rate Dawes' game yesterday but they're not going to drop Dawes after one game.

Have we dropped anyone this season after one game? I'm not sure. We gave Michie, ANB and Newton at least two games each.

It's not going to stop people from making the suggestion that they will, though.  This thread should be renamed the 'Changes I want to happen vs. Pies' as opposed to what it is now as you don't often get changes that make a whole lot of sense.

As you are clearly a smarmy, self serving and decadent fellow ( all useful traits to be sure) it seems obvious.

I've heard all that before and I've been trying to work on it.

I think you'll find Garland will be right this week - club (Misson) said as much in the injury update.  The cheekbone was not as bad as first feared

Specifically:

“He’s got a little crack there, but nothing too serious, so he’ll miss this week, even though he’ll probably end up training tomorrow. He won’t play this week, but he’s almost a certainty next week.

Ins. Mitch White, Kennedy

Outs. O.mcd Harmes

Put Salem on the long term injury list (next 5-6) weeks and upgrade White.

White showed again today that his disposal even in poor conditions is very good.

Isn't the LTI list a minimum of 12 weeks? Would mean you've put Salem out for the year to bring in White, not sure that's a good move.

8 weeks minimum, still too long I think.

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Megg

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.
