Spencer seems an obvious choice but understand that Grundy is a very mobile ruckman and will run him hard, he may not have the fitness to go with Grundy and if not we are one down.

I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't come in.

I'm interested to see how Goody handles this one, there are arguments both ways and I don't see it as a certainty.

I trust we will get it right.

with watts having a niggling ankle injury he needs to be kept out of ruck duties. another reason to bring in spencil if he passes fitness tests

Bernie returns Adams' serve: "It might be (used as a motivating factor). What is he (Dunn) at a successful club now, is he? That's the first I've heard of it but we might be able to use that one as a bit of motivation. Not sure what he's done at Collingwood yet though." http://www.afl.com.au/news/2017-06-06/is-he-at-a-successful-club-now-bernies-swipe

Straight to the point!

Adams has dropped Dunne right it in.  The flack is directed at Dunne and he hasn't said a word. 

Ah well, glad Bernie fired it up a bit.

Great marketing ploy for the game, well done gents.

Cant wait for Dunny to bring out the fake tough guy routine and "rough up" Watts and Garlett, in fact I think he might be scared of our Jeffy.

Wonder if Bernie will tag Treloar or maybe Pendles

Bernie Pendles, Viney Adams.

 

Gee wiz they do have stacked midfield. DeGoey, Treloar and then the old sheepdog on the wing.

Salem has to come in, Stretch a chance?

Given Spencer was out with a shoulder, he should have been able to keep his mobility fitness up and maybe even improve it..?! 

I stand corrected but i would think it would be more to their advantage to tag Viney with (2) Jones (2) and Oliver (3), which does not leave anyone to go up in the ruck, handball outside, or run into the Umpire for them. Such is life.....

 

Will we see Clokey? ie Baby Huey...

greenwood will go to oliver, vince to pendles

leaves viney, jones, lewis, tyson vs. adams, treloar, sidebottom, crisp

easy to argue they've got us for pace but we've got em for grunt

We will  be favourites for the match,normally we lose,so on that basis Collingwood really is the favourite. I expect Hogan to play,I think it is a ploy to state otherwise,I also expect Collingwood to do the same. This match is a mini elimination final,loser tanks for rest of year and pees off their supporters.

The notion we lose when favs is wrong. 

Rd 2 - favs Vs Carlton - Won

Rd 4 - favs Vs Freo - Lost

Rd 6 - favs Vs Essendon - Won

Rd 7 - favs Vs Hawks - Lost

Rd 9 - favs Vs Nth - Lost

Rd 10 - favs Vs Suns - Won

Won 3, Lost 3 - so the commentary around we lose every time we are favs is rubbish

He might be but there's another concept to consider.

He's not good enough to match it with Grundy and not footy smart enough to go with him...

Just a thought.

...another thought, @Webber can you keep up your running when rehabbing a shoulder???

Flying down Friday and back Tuesday, can't bloody wait. My partner will be attending her first AFL game, very excited.

I'm surprised BA you didnt want to wait for a scrappy game against Brisbane in front of a crowd of 12,500.

They will have 22, as will we.

Will our 22 beat theirs?  That is the only question.  


Flying across from Perth for the game. Hoping for a good, solid first quarter. 

Will know within the first 10 minutes if we are on. If we are then we will win comfortably - we are better than they are!

I really wanna see Trengove play in the seniors, even just one more time.  

You could call it 'wanting to get closure' on a very dark and challenging time for the club.  If he plays and stinks it up, great, I'll never mention him again and he can happily play out his 20s with his mates in a quiet suburban league.  But part of me yearns for that promise and potential that we saw in those early years to be fulfilled.

Totally agree.

The word I am getting is Hogan still a likely starter. He is fit, wants to play, but faces a mixed view from footy department on whether he is mentally ready and physically conditioned. It will come down to selection committee on Thursday. There may also be some gamesmanship going on here.

Thats what I am hearing. It's from the top. Its by no means absolute. Just what I am hearing. 

Happy to be smashed on here for giving gossip on a "gossip site". Personally I find it entertaining. Knock yourself out!  

Looking forward to some apologies.

Stop being a [censored] foot GNF, you get some info and go with it. 

Personally id be surprised if both Spenc and Hoges come in.

Yep. Jake would have had very little time off running, certainly not enough to compromise his aerobic fitness. Should be cherry ripe in that regard.

Love it GNF. I can feel the angst from the non believers bubbling away as we speak (figuratively speaking, so to speak). Won't be long before the angst spills onto DL. 

Start him dees. Great foxing. And if they don't, still great foxing and you still have me on your side GNF.

Ah the fun and games.

Go Dees

 

Still two training sessions to go before Monday. If hogan trains fully he plays. Good of the club to take the pressure off him.

Thanks 'Webber'...much appreciated.

Lets hope if he gets a game that he can at least bring some pressure to bare on Grundy and give our mids a good shot at it.

If you haven't already seen it on the Club website and or received your email, the special pre Queens Birthday training session is on again on Saturday. Training starts at 9.30am and I can guarantee it will be cold. The usual hot coffee, hot sausages, Demon Shop and Mascots will be there. So fire up all you Demonlanders and get down to Gosch's. The players love it when supporters come and watch training.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
