Will Jones return and if so who will he replace? It'd be a shame to see Trengove only make the one appearance and then be omitted.

JKH had little impact today but otherwise it was a reasonable spread of effort.

I think our best 22 would see Jones and vince come back in and unfortunately Kennedy Harris and trenners go out. 

So I'd say 

Jones in trengove out next week 

I'd love trenners to stay but taking the emotion out of it I think jkh offers some X factor that trengove just doesn't

If Jones is ready, then it will be Jones for JKH.

If he isn't then I'd go with an unchanged lineup.  Been a while since we've been able to do that, and it will give us some continuity going into a danger game.

Then we get Jones and Vince back the following week.

I don't think JKH offers much X factor at all compared to our other small to mid-sized players.

He got a bit of the ball last week but went missing today.

X factor is great but you have get your hands on the pill first.

In; Jones

Out: JKH

Will they rest Gawn in light of his "soreness" ?

He is so important to our finals chances and "if" North go ruckless as they did today it may be a good strategy.

Against that he needs the game time.

On Jones .. I see no reason to rush him back but will understand one way or the other

Ruckless? Daw was good in the ruck today. He would dominate Watts/McDonald

And getting more game time onto Dom, Watts, Hogan and Viney is critical as we approach September

Everything will depend on whether Jones comes back

You get the sense it's either JKH or Trengove who would be lowest on the totem pole to lose their spot; sentimentality I would much prefer to see Trenners stay in, but I thought both were serviceable today 

Would love to see 'no change' if Jones is not right to reward what was a fantastic team effort today

Harmes attack on the footy today was exemplary. Maybe a few untidy disposals but he always has a dip!

possibly give the skipper a run in the 2s next week been out a long time with the quad - run off some rust. would have been good to do it with a couple of our seniors coming back last few weeks but didnt have the luxury due to running out with our 3rds otherwise...

no change - same endeavour early and we absolutely [censored] Nth to eradicate the last decade of failures against them. [censored] hate that pissant club

Trengove comes out if Jones comes in. Everyone knows that, right?

Im not so sure.  Who from the midfield drops back to HBF to cover Trengove?

 

I think JKH goes out for Jones. Trengove out for Vince the next week.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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.
