Pedersen for Hogan makes sense. Vince and Jones taking JKH's and Trengove's spots also makes sense.

Hannan has been "rested" - probably not a bad idea, assuming it's true, and gives Maynard a taste.

This game is winnable. GWS has hardly played a good game for two months.

On a side note, how stupid is it that we haven't played GWS in over a year after playing them twice in two games.

I was thinking the same thing.

Since we last played GWS, they've played Sydney five times.

    Not sure why Weiderman wasn't picked?

    I assume its because the FD think Pederson is more likely to perform at the required level.

    Weiderman will have his time over the coming years, but now we need to win a few games and make finals and I agree with the FD that Pedo is more likely to deliver.

    It's an easy decision pedo backs up gawn in the ruck, McDonald is much more likely to have a day out than pedo up forward so he needs to stay close to goal, the weed just is not ready and I would just leave him at Casey now for the rest of the year

    Happy they didn't pick Weid, has had a few decent games at VFL level but hardly banging the door down.  Pedo matched or even bettered him the last few games so to me its a no brainer.

    Feel bad for Trenners, if he gets not interest for trades, maybe we can delist him and rookie him like we did with Jetta, we still need strong leaders in the VFL for the development of the kids.

    Strange that there is no time frame on Jesse, not even a minimum.

    Hannan did looked pretty cooked last week, freshen him up to come back hopefully with a bang.

    Never rated JKH , hasn't been too bad playing as an inside mid, alot better there than forward, but still think he is lacking in many areas, especially defensive.

    Be really nice to win tomorrow.

    JKH has been named in the back pocket in the VFL

    Guess Goody told Plappy to sort his defensive deficiencies out.

    Because he is still a kid.. Can't play through injury and can't tuck. Playing him last year killed us when we needed a presence at CHF! Here's hoping this is a game where Pedersen stands up and makes the AFL take notice. How good would a big bag of 5 be?

    blunstone oval runs north south (like shitehad). anyone know if canberra oval is north/south or east/west?

    if east/west the wind won't advantage any end unduly as the wind is mainly from the north but will still make conditions tricky

    Yep pretty much North/South, slight orientation to the right if centre. Looks miserable (particularly definitely you are a sheep) a 2-3 wind advantage to the southern end.

    Hard to fathom that Corey Maynard hadn't played a game of footy in ten years prior to this season. And now he's playing an AFL game.

    Given how far he has come in such a short time Corey is a very weird combination of a 26 y.o with some serious upside.

    Again, so important that we manage to stop Lobb who was always going to be the biggest thread because of his size.

    Ummm.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.
