    I’m feeling that we don’t press on Viney, Hibbo or any others having a break. I’d be happy to let Hogan take some time off, bring in one of (AVB/Pedo) for Hogan. 

    Spargo to one of (Kent/Bugg).

    everyone else we should retain - I hold high hopes for next weekend, possibly even get our percentage back up to over 130% to hold back the other contenders.

    The main outs this time around would be Jake Lever and Michael Hibberd while Jack Viney was on the cusp of coming back. 

    If we can get Hibberd and Viney back into the side for the big run home, it would be very helpful.

    A fit and ready to go J Hunt may be a finals wildcard if we make it too,

    Has AVB improved in the two years he missed?

     

    Thats the big question his Tackling pressure and hardness are top shelf elite, but how has his impact been in regards to general possesions,kicking goals etc.

    How far is Hunty off from playing at Casey? He'd have to play 2-3 blinders in a row to be considered for the Dees.

    Alright, I’ve been meaning to discover why the hell the super smiley emoji always appears instead of the ‘C’ on people’s team sheets?!

    is our midfield super smiley happy all the time? 

    Lets see.....

    • 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.
