There's a six day break before next week's game, we have a lot of tired players in need of a rest and a good few put their hands up at Casey yesterday.

Surely, there will be changes this week?

Think Hogan might struggle to get up with his knee. Dawes must go as should Garlett. Think it might be time to try the Weed or Huelett. Maybe Terlich should get a game as a forward. Kennedy and Clarry will also be considered.

Matt Jones, never to play again, diabolical foot skills.

 

Harmes, has been below standard for a while.

 

Kent, borderline, but see Harmes.

I hate how he takes possession is in the clear and runs in2 a tackle because he is 2 slow 2 kick or handball

Could be a variety of players up for a rest/dropped.  For me, it might be:

In:  Kennedy, Bugg, Weideman, Oliver

Out:  Harmes, Garlett, Dawes, Hogan

Or something like that anyway.  We could use some fresh legs at any rate, and Kennedy, Bugg and Oliver provide us with that.  Weideman to come in for Hogan if his knee injury doesn't improve.

Newton looked in great touch. Has earned a recall. 

Michie can hit targets and by god do we need that.

Oliver is class and should play out the year in the firsts.

Pedo is an upgrade on Dawes.

Garlett gets a second chance he probably doesn't deserve but he's a game changer on his day.

Out: Harmes, M Jones, Wagner, Dawes

In: Oliver, Newton, Michie, Pedersen

Dawes out permanently.

Maybe give huellet a run.  I'd give Kennedy and Oliver a show. Out for those two I don't know. Probably about half the side.

He got a lot of the ball, his disposal was amateur standard at best.

He had a red hot dip, and that's more than you can say for about 5 or 6 others

Out: 15 nonsensical possessions across the full back line that lead to ,........ What exactly ???

Seriously, some of you are obviously completely biased or you just name the same names every week without watching the game.

Of course he does. He's provided more than Hogan the last two weeks. Simple as that. He most likely won't be around next year, but let's actually pick a team on form instead of who our favourties are etc.

Sorry Everyone but I have to agree with the Stumeister.

He took two Dawesy chest marks then he built his confidence up and got Two Overhead Grabs!!

The first one raised a huge cheer on the wing and everyone said "finally" or "about time" or words to that extent.

His overall contribution on the day means he stays and gets to play Hawthorn and do something on field against them.

    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. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
