The Fillopovic reason is truly bizarre.. rest him for 2 works of not playing on the assumption that hes on a low base? Yet hes had a full pre season??

    Brilliant.  We have to beat the Saints this week.. we can then get on a huge roll with gun players coming back and hopefully at or close to full strength.

    11 players mentioned as injured (weeks)  provided Petracca is back and Hogan is okay. 

    Of the 11, really only Viney and Salem out of our best 22.  Hoping they are only 2 weeks away and we can setup for a big run of wins.

    Morris has no credits in the back at all.

    Play him in the seniors he's too important to play in the VFL.

    Don't know where he says he unequivocally does NOT want to play VFL, but I am sure that is the case and fair enough.

    Will probably still play VFL i reckon

    Obviously very good news to hear he isn't far off.  But i caution anyone who thinks he will return as the Viney we all know launching us even further ahead on ladder etc, at least in his first 3 to 5 matches.

    Most players usually have an average return to the game (vs their usual standards) when coming off a very interrupted pre-season (or none at all) and tend to have some up and down results during the remainder of their season.  After such a long lay off i can't see this being any different for Jack (albeit his main game is a rung above most, so lessor results should still be pretty damn good).

    Will be a great day when he finally runs out!  Then there's the effect on team moral.  Now that might have a substantial impact even if Jack is having some ups and downs so you might get the outcome you are hoping for Petracc!

    We now have 11 players on the injured list, the Saints have 4. 

     

    In and of itself that doesn't mean much.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
