What

Spencer in for Gawn the obvious forced change. 

We cant afford to lose this game it would be a huge early blow to our finals chances, and Freo have started very well vs the Doggies in the game just underway in Perth.

    Hannan may also get the chop for someone like Ben Kennedy.  I'd love to add Hibberd to the list as well but he needs a week or two at Casey.

    They should be breathing fire after today.

    Spencer gets his chance.

    Would have loved a Casey game for Pedersen, Frost and others to push their claim, but the ridiculous VFL fixture has robbed them of that chance.

    Agree along with Frost for Harmes. Frost is quicker!

    Have a look at how the young Moore is going at Collingwood without Cloke.

    Neither he nor Weideman are ready for the number 1 backman and nor should they be.

    The Weed is the future and unless you think he will improve playing with an unco-ordinated system on a windy oval such is the VFL... we need to keep playing him

    I know you want to keep running with the OMac theme, but deep down you know it won't happen.  Nice try.

    Is Frost not a better option?

    I didn't say that.  They may bring him in as the third tall, but whatever happens, it won't be at the expense of OMac.

    I'd go 

    out: gawn, weid

    In: spencer kennedy-Harris

    Spencer for Gawn is obvious.

    I'll keep my powder dry on the 'ins' until we have some feedback from Casey's 3/4 practice match today, but Hannan has struggled for the last two weeks as has Weid.

    Ins: Spencer Pedersen Kennedy Bugg

    Out: Gawn Weideman Hannan Harmes

  • Quote

    I thought Neal Bullen poor today and that chip back into the square dropable alone!!

    Harmes also not the answer. Stick with Hannan and Weeds

    Bring in Spencil, Frost, Kennedy and Bugg

  • Quote

    Think about it... everyone says we played well etc etc

    next week we play Freo

    The replacements are not match fit (practice matches in the VFL are not quite the same)

    So .. why change unless forced ... Spencer in

    Time to show faith

  • Quote

    Brayshaw for Harmes, Bugg for Hannan, Frost for either Weideman or Smith, Pencil for Max.

    I'll like to free up vince to go forward/mid. We desperately need some class up there. Really don't think vince is suited down back 

    Bring in Wagner or hibberd if ready

  • Quote

    I can't recall too many games where a player is virtually unsighted and you start to look at the team sheets to check if they are actually playing. Sam Weiderman had one of those today. Needs to go back to Casey for a bit.

  • Quote

    Gawn and Hogan are arguably our two most important players and we won't have either of them next week, it's a worry no matter who we play.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
