As a supporter and member I can please myself as to my views.

I can't stand Bugg and hope he's played his last game in red and blue.

Mainly because he's sh1thouse.

I just don't get that Pro Dee. We differ here.

Out: Bugg, Viney, Tyson, White.

In: Kent, Trengove, Maynard, JKH.

Wagner deserves to be dropped, but I can't see anymore than 4 changes. We are running out of fit bodies to run out in the park.

Just a quick one on Maynard - can we upgrade him, or do we need to place someone on the LTI to do it?  Not sure if being a Category B rookie changes anything.

You know that as a supporter you support the players who play for the club right?

Well said RTG.... Hate that word spud, so childish.

(If Hogan, Garlett and Watts come in it will more than compensate.)

 

None of those players are inside mids, won't compensate anywhere except the team sheet. Contested ball is our BRAND.

And why wouldn't Watts play??

What a disappointment this guy is.  He picks and chooses and rarely goes for a hard ball.

Agree, would prefer a little more than his marshalling ability and space occupation

Still has to get through a test. I have Jack and Jeffy down as questionable. I hope both are back but I'm looking at options if those 2 can't get up.

Thought I heard Jon Ralph say Watts was only likely to return round 18.

INJURIES
Carlton: Marchbank (right shoulder), Plowman (dislocated finger), Weitering (ankle)

 

Hopefully all three miss. We deserve some luck.

I think they all played out the game didn't they?  So I doubt they miss

John Ralph would have no more idea than the man in the street. Goodwin said he was a chance which to me means not this week but next

I don't think Maynard comes in.  Although he is finding the ball, I don't think his skills are up to it yet.  

Out:  Viney, Bugg, Tyson and White

In:  Hogan, Garlett, Smith and Kennedy

Watts comes in of course if available

Gee, if Marchbank & Weitering miss that would be huge.Yes,not their elite midfield but would seriously affect their structure. Wishful thinking.?

 To me it doesn't matter who is out of an opposition team cause it doesn't matter. 

We just need to beat them no matter who is or is not playing.

It could be time to get creative again maybe play a loose man behind the ball and tag their play maker off half back Doherty for starters. 

Only play guys who are fit witha view to pinch a win or two over the next month and come home strong when we get players back in 4 weeks or there abouts .

Give johnstone or kielty a go, really need to see if our depth players are up to scratch 

There's depth players & then there's lambs to lions.. Both no where near ready. I've watched both in the VFL.

I'd like hope they would take Trengove over Kennedy. At least Trengove can use it!

I don't disagree but I think his papers have been stamped unfortunately.  His leg speed hasn't helped

It allows petracca to go into the mid full time for one, secondly watts and Garlett are much better uses of the ball meaning it won't be turned over as much when compaired to say White and Wagner. Additionally it gives the team more structure. I'm not saying u win finals without them but a team like Carlton with 4 wins shouldn't be a problem. If it is we are kidding our self about having any sort of impact come September. Very rearly does a team have there best 22 or even best 18 any given week if dees can't beat a team that sit on 4 wins after 14 games with 3 mids out we have bigger problems than injuries

Maynard will surely play, hes 25, a mature body, smooth mover and is racking up the footy in VFL.  Why draft him if we arent gonna play him when our midfield is depleted?

In -     Hogan, Garlett, Maynard, J.Smith

Out - Viney (inj), Tyson (inj), Bugg (susp), White 

 

Harmes, ANB and Stretch all need to lift, they were pitiful vs the Swans and are lucky to be in the team.

    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
