MATCH PREVIEW AND TEAM SELECTION - Round 12


Demonland

Recommended Posts

I'll take any win on Monday, but if we were able to win big, there's a chance we could go as high as 9th if Carlton lose.

I reckon we might be taking a bit of a risk with Viney. I hope it doesn't backfire. I'll trust the FD to know that he's right to play. I just know they've admitted a few mistakes already this year. Namely Brayshaw's inclusion earlier in the year.

And remember Trengove?  Apparently it was all OK to play with his foot injury despite him being outrun by the MCG shadows.

Well, this incarnation of the FD wasn't responsible for that.

Strongest side we have field for the year

Not far off it. I'd like Brayshaw, Jeffy and Salem in there. Pedersen as well, but it's not far off it.

Edited by AdamFarr
Forgot about Jeffy.

Really hope Vince still plays on the ball with Viney back in the team. I think Jones should be the one on the outside when needed

I can't see Vince not playing on Pendles.

Brayshaw, Salem, Lumumba, Garlett, Harmes, M.Jones, Pedersen all best 22 for mine this year, so not our strongest side IMO. Obviously some of that is form and not injury, but I'm talking when in standard form or form shown early this year, not best form.

Who is Harmes better then in Monday's side? He got dropped for a reason and that's because he isn't best 22.

We will know soon enough 'Adam'...

I'm sure Jack put his hand up, I just hope the FD didn't fall for it.

Dawes, Frost, Stretch, Wagner, Omac, Trengove, Hunt.

Those players aren't best 22 (currently) if everyone is fit and in standard form IMO.

Stretch has shown he is definitely in our best 22.  Trengove has had 1 game back and is a star

Wagner has had a decent season Stuie, would have him over M.Jones. Jones has only played 4 games, he was good against GWS, OK against North & Pies and terrible against the Dons

Just take it in the context I put it, which was at this point right now but going by the standard form shown, not the ceiling, that is some of those names are in there now but could be best 22 end of season. For mine, Stretch and Trengove don't quite have the runs on the board yet but would be close. Hopefully that makes sense?

    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,
