For those who want to know why Oliver was dropped, take it from Roos himself:

“Our seconds played really well [on June 18]. There were some really good performances for Casey,” he said.

“So there was a bit of pressure on selection and we’ve seen this year that even one poor game can lead to getting dropped.

“It’s probably more about promoting [players], who have had a really good patch from Casey, rather than a bad patch of form from a senior player.”

It will be the first match Wagner has missed since he made his AFL debut in round three against North Melbourne at Blundstone Arena"

So it's more about the good form of the players at Casey as opposed to poor from from someone like Oliver.  Harmes went back to Casey and had a ripper, Grimes and M Jones have also been playing very well too.  It simply can't be ignored.

This is the key to it. He is still only a boy and there is no point knocking him around every week at this stage of his development. He's shown enough to indicate he will be a long term gun player. FFS we can get another 15 years out this fella!!

I have picket on ignore, but I laughed a little when he said I have no idea.  He thinks Wagner was omitted...

I don't get this. I never put anyone on ignore ( although I'm sure many have me on ignore)

You delve around in enough buckets of [censored], you'll eventually find that diamond ring. ( I've mixed a few metaphors or something but i'm sure you'll get my point - I think.

EERR well ..  maybe you should put me on ignore too Wise

Absolutely no need for that, mate.  I've only got a few people on ignore on this board (such as picket, deeluded) because I feel as though they bring nothing interesting or intelligent to the discussion.  Plus they annoy me, so if I can't see it, then I can focus on the other stuff.

There are countless buckets here mate, and the ones I've got on ignore are shallow indeed.

Now dee luded is an intelligent if misunderstood poster.

How long did the poor bastard get? [censored] me Eddie got off lightly compared to 'luded

Any mods reading this?

It's about time to resurrect 'luded. I don't think he's committed a capital offence.

12 x 4 or is it 5 ish!! You think I post like a child?? Fair enough, but the passion (if slightly hysterical nature) of the man is part of the persona that is me. warts and all! 

In the industry in which I work, My passion is regarded as admirable even if it does get me into some ah interesting discussions! So be it!

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
