Changes v Weagles

I'm not worried whatsoever who comes in or out, We've proven we've got the depth to cover huge losses, personnel wise. I'd be more worried about getting ahead of ourselves. All this talk about finals is just rubbish, we've done nothing yet. We need to bring the right attitude to every game and West Coast is no different. No need to worry about anything else other than who's available for Sat night whoever plays must play their role knowing if they don't they'll get dropped cos there's another 5-6 blokes desperate for a game.

Watts and Jones won't play it would be stupid to risk them but Goodwin would wanna make sure no complacency in the group cos sure as hell if you're 2% off in this league you lose. One week at a time!

Pedo plays all season if he's fit cos he brings the right attitude.

What does it matter, anyway?

Shuffling deck chairs on The Titanic

No, we have good depth now.

Shuffling deckchairs is a  thing of the past for the MFC thank christ.

Possibly a sign of things to come re Chunk. He's getting older. He'll get niggles, miss a few here and there.

Out: watts jones

in: gawn stretch 

Goodwin said he wanted to reward all the players in a win last week can't see him dropping someone this week 

If they are the only two forced outs I totally agree.

We need 22 fit players. I would rest all players with niggles.

Out: Jones, Watts, Hibberd and Bugg. 

In: Gawn, Stretch, Wagner and JKH/Maynard.

Gawn to be managed 1st game back in the ruck/forward role. Wagner a direct swap for Hibberd.

Hopefully everyone else is good to go, concerns over Jetta?

I feel like this game could be real danger game I'm loving our depth but without our two best key forwards our best mid and our best ruck. We are going to need another team effort with players like bugg , harms and Neil-bullen all contributing.

JKH is a lock given how he's played over the past few weeks at Casey. He will replace Nathan Jones (rested/groin whatever)

Max Gawn's selection has already been announced. Dees will play it safe with Jack Watts (rested/hammy whatever)

Billy Stretch and Josh Wagner are chances as well for two others to be rested or whatever.

Channel 7 saying Jones will miss at least 2 weeks with a quad and showed Hibberd badly limping at recovery today. 

Watts sore.

West Coast Bigfooty page saying Kennedy again did not train today. Still hasn't done training since the injury. I'd be surprised if he played

He trained in a private session and was worked hard. They'll see how he pulls up

We aren't looking at needing a small forward as far as i can tell. JKH whilst playing well in the magoos is no fill in mid at the top level, he just isnt. Stretch is. Hes no Jones but can equit himself ok as a mid.

Possibly no Hogan, Jones, Watts, Hibberd + Gawnys first game back after a very long layoff.

A lot of sore boys and a long trip to WA.  A win this week would top even yesterdays win.  Time to dig deep again.

Jones and Watts will both play is my prediction. Jones looked like a corky in the collision with Lin Jong and Watts had a little hammy tightness - said he was fine.

Gawn to replace ANB and Stretch to replace Harmes who looked shot. And certainly Stretch if Hunt doesn't come up.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
