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.

still prefer to keep Frost ( for Garlo )

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.

    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.
