    Maybe, but there isn't much else at Casey to replace them with for the minute.  We can only go with what we have.

    Weid should be good in the Sydney grass.

    Yep. 

    Serious question... would you not temper the style...a bit ...to accommodate the different levels of ability and experience ??

    Preuss Gawn rotating plus T Mac and Weed up front. Bomb it long at the scg. 70 inside fifties we should win once we don’t leak a goal every two minutes

    I assume TMac will be a late out and Gawn will spend more time floating back to help our defence. Preuss will help in the ruck and rest forward and poor Weids will be saved from the horror of having to take Centre ruck contests. 

    We’ll kick 6 goals if that’s the case, lucky for us Swans will only kick 5.

    AFL360 has just got me pumped for the game, those bastards! Murphy and Nick saying how you can often get a big response when you ‘circle up’ or have an honesty session. 

    On the other hand if no response then there is nowhere to turn

    Exactly and that is caused by injuries and we have a lot at present.

    Is Tmac still subject to a late test ? Just curious

    I just saw on the idiot box slobbo say Franklin will kick 7 goals on us. Karp. Mr Frost will have a field day if he can actually sit tight on buddy and punch well. It can't be that hard ?

    I am not convinced he will play, you take out two medium size mobile players and replace one of them with the tallest guy on the list who is way less mobile! Looks more like a replacement for TMac to me, without TMac we would have had only the Weid as the only tall. With Preuss in we can rotate him and Gawn in the forward line.

    I suspect a late change also

    Seriously? Jeff "zero tackles" Garlett is not the saviour. If defensive pressure is the mantra, he's the last person you want in the team, it's like giving the opposition an extra player down back. As for the goals part ... how many did he kick at Casey on the weekend?

    Having said that, I like Garlett a lot, but he's so far off the pace he's unrecognisable as the player he once was.

    Yes, people need to realise Jeffy has been out of form for the best part of 18 months.

    Yes, if Tmac is a late out, let's hope we have someone who can do well on Allir Aliir.  AA must be one of the best defenders in the AFL now. He's phenomenal, incredible, unbelievable. ( or so people keep saying )

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • NON-MFC: Round 14

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
