Just now, small but forward said:

Who do we drop for White?

It's a fair question.  Roosy loved Hunt's performance, so I can't see him being 'rested', Jetta is a lock and he won't take a tall backman's spot.. I think.  Possibly Tommy Bugg?  Billy Stretch gets a rest?

With respect to our losses after six day breaks, if my memory serves me correctly, we didn't really make many changes for those games and ended up paying dearly.

I wonder what happens this week.

I hope it's Bugg if out of those two. I love Billy's speed and Toms hair gives me the shits

Emg: Viv Michie, Alex Neal-Bullen, Jake Spencer

In: Grimes, White

Out: Chris Dawes, Tomas Bugg

Edit: Roos said it would be a fresh team.  So bringing in Grimes and White attests that

Good luck to Grimes as he well and truly deserves his chance. White is an exciting prospect too so happy to see him back!

I am surprised that Oliver is not in, especially as Casey has a bye this week.

They must have decided he needed an extended rest.

two fits guys that can play 80% game time.

Bugg is a form slump. Dawes was too poor to keep, even though our structure suffers.

Good accountable changes.

White seems a logical replacement for H (if H was playing!). Both listed as 188 cm and 88 lg.

Now that we are clearly out of finals contention, it's a good opportunity to have a decent look at a few players who have been consistently amongst the 'bests' for Casey for a while, but may or may not be in our jumper in 2017.  The ball is now in their court to prove their worth.

From the website: "Going out of the side is key forward Christ Dawes and utility Tomas Bugg. Midfielder Viv Michie, second-year player Alex Neal-Bullen and ruckman Jake Spencer have been named emergencies."

Hard to believe he can't play with a name like that!

Happy with those changes.  White and Grimes certainly deserve their opportunity, while Dawes was poor last week and Bugg has been down on form as of late.  

I like the fact we are going in a little shorter which I think will suit the conditions a little better as well.

Happy 2 c how Grimes & White go. Hope Grimes plays well & gets a 2nd game. I think Vanders is lucky 2 b in team. Wonder if M Jones can get more than 118m with his 20 posses this week if not swap him for Trenners.

The holes in his hands is probably why he can't mark anything

That's what I call him, although there's usually a comma in between the names.

Just shows what wonderful pundits we all are on Demonland

Cannot remember anyone mentioning White as a possibility. (If I am wrong please accept my apology and my congratulations)

Looks like Grimesy will get to 100 games, thats great.  And glad to see White in, he was impressive at the end of last season.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
