Crumbs!  Is that all??  How are we expected to win with only three players??

Two Vagg. It’s just Tyson’s luck to be the held over emergency.

    Nah, Tyson has to play so we get a bit of ball ...

    Confirmed: Watts not playing.

    Seeing Jack W in the jail cell stripes means I can finally say goodbye to what might have been.

    I have now officially moved on !!!

    Dom Tyson, Tim Smith and Charlie Spargo were on the flight to Adelaide today.

    Was hoping Jeffy was there instead of Spargo.

    So from who is on the plane .. we can confirm the one change ...

    Smith in

    Pedersen: Out

    cannot question that change. Smith offers more at ground level and seems to gel unlike Pedersen with the other two big forwards.

    Big game needed from Hogan amongst others.

    Strangely ambivalent to this game ... the QB game pricked my balloon of optimism well and truly.

    Go Dees

    Just reading that the Netball comp now awards bonus points for quarters won in an effort to maintain spectator interest.

    With our record this year perhaps MFC should get into Gil's ear ?

    Correct Diamond, never made it that far. As you know, I spent time in Italy, Spain, Cuba , France as well as Idaho and other American states, but never Russia.  They obviously know nothing about Hemingway so it’s just a gimmick to get in the gullible tourists, particularly my fellow countrymen who as you know are not all that discerning regarding food choices or literary interests. Probably a hamburger joint.  So should be avoided at all costs.  One thing I did do when traveling was eat the local village food usually camouflaged in casseroles and stews. Enjoy your travels and have a drink for poor old crumbly Hem.

    Hemmingway would love to hear about your travels to these far of lands! Maybe post on the No Bulltish no $ forum!?

    Fair changes this week.  I reckon they will play Harmes predominantly at half forward with Tyson going in to the midfield rotation.  I know some wanted Jeffy in the side but I don't think his form at Casey has warranted a recall.

  • Quote

    Hannan & Pedders easily fought it out for W.O.G. last week IMO.  Spargo not great either but substantially better than Hannan and a tad unlucky.

    Smith a big improvement on Pedders IF he can stay on the park and he can manage to bring much of the form he showed against the Crows.

    Weid/Smith for Pedo was always going to happen.  Pedo just doesn't gel with Hogan and it messed with our structure. 

    Tyson has been playing well with the main issue being how to get him in the mix without upsetting balance.  This may allow us to play Viney as a stopper instead of Brayshaw and get our inside mid mix right again. 

     

    I'm ready disapointed with Garlett. He is a better player than Casey but he just hasn't clicked this year. I don't think others have gone past him, more that he hasn't brought it. Can he find it again?

     

    Other than Lever, this is our best 22 right now.  Form might push Garlett or Spargo in, but we must be pretty happy with what we've got on the park.

    No Frost or Petty???

    Cox monstered omcd last week

    who gets Dixon???  Omcd???

    who gets Westoff???  J Smith ???

    both too small , just my opinion

    I thought Frost in to take Dixon and omcd gets westoff

     The more I reflect the more I think this game depends on the ruck and clearance battle. Collingwood worked us out there last week and that cost us the game. Can we reinstate our dominance in that area? Did we learn a plan B for when Gawn is getting beaten?

  • Quote

    Not enough changes for mine Petty should be in we are too small down back.

    Pedo had to be dropped he was hopeless against the pies, I don't think he will get a game again.

    Good to see Tyson and Tim.Smith back.

    Spargo out is interesting because we haven't replaced him, we have no crumbing forward.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
