I said it early in the week that this is the best side we have had since '98.

We are currently 5th and I truly believe we can go all the way with this side.

Hannan saved himself in the last quarter I thought he done nothing for 3 quarters.

IN: VINEY OUT: WEIDEMAN

In -      Viney

Out -   Vince (rest)

I like the Weid in the team. hes taking a key defender and allowing T Mac and Hogan to wreak havoc.

Can't see them switching a tall for a mid, Weid has allowed TMac and Hogan to roam while keeping some structure in the forward line. I think it's really helped with some of the mismatches that occurred in the last. 

I'm in the Vince out for a rest, Viney in camp.

A good response from Harmes - he knew.

ANB similar but Viney is a clear upgrade for mine.

In: Viney

Out: Neal- Bullen

I think the Weide isn't needed T.Mac can play second ruck and Gawn can play more forward.

Viney for Tyson

I am also in the Tyson for Viney, but resting Vince could be an option.

I think it’s there only option.  

Goodwin talked up the Weed after the game and Viney won’t play ANB’s half forward role. 

Tyson is an inside mid who has not been overly effective and still makes lots of mistakes

There's another option - give Viney another week. Why not? I'd rather err on the super cautious side.

I’d rather he come back to condition himself against Carlton at the G than against Adelaide in Alice Springs.

I think Goody said at the end of his presser that Viney would play next week.

Tyson hasn't been playing as an inside mid though, he played more as a defensive sweeper/mid today and I thought he was in our best half dozen in the first half, was much quieter in the second half but the ball barely went down there.

I think Vince is more of a chance to get dropped than Tyson. 

Age is catching up with him.

After watching Goody's presser I think the Weid stays but Vince is in trouble, I would like to see Tyson stay I like him as a footballer.

That is just completely bizarre. Not only has tmac just come back from an injured foot but is playing well in the forward line while sometimes wandering out to the wing area. Gawn can play forward more is nonsensical because he is the best ruckman in the side so why play him forward more with tmac rucking ??????? I just don't get your argument.

Settle down.

OK I think the Weid stays I just know that T.Mac can play well as a second ruck and Gawn can play well as a second forward. The Weid hasn't grasped the second forward role yet but he has been quite good as the second ruck.

Viney will get 50 disposals that's how much he is above VFL level. Viney will be in next week the coach said so.

Even as an armchair coach it's hard to predict who will make way for Viney.

Let's be real, you are pretty stiff to get dropped after an 11 goal win. If Viney wasn't out there wouldn't be changes next week.

Happy with the current team, but Viney has to come back in.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
