PREGAME: Rd 04 vs Sydney

Changes are as good as could have been hoped given the lack of options at Casey. 

Kolodjashnij & May - the trade that just keeps on giving. All we need now is for Hogan to win the Western Derby off his own boot.

I expect Preuss to be fairly useless in terms of disposals, but I'll be disappointed if he doesn't plough through a couple of Sydney defenders. Set up Rampe or Lloyd under a high ball early and let Preuss knock him into next week.

    I think I will be measuring Preuss's value in the quality of Gawn's game. If Gawn plays a blinder, I suspect part of the reason will be Gawn having a proper rest, whether it's at full forward or on the bench, rather than being forced (or, perhaps, psychologically feeling forced) to ruck for as long as possible throughout the game. Anything Preuss does himself is just a bonus.

    I agree. I would play max forward for 1/2 a quarter and preuss the other half. At this stage it is worth a try.

    I'd go for double rotations of these two each quarter - changing at centre bounces with Preuss up front FFwd leading straight out in the last.

    We lose the opening 3 matches, they can only come up with two changes to the side, and one was forced?

    I wish the selectors had not picked OMac, using Petty or Keilty instead.

    True.

    Whatever happens, Preuss cannot be judged on one game alone, so I hope he is given a run of games to find his feet.

    I can never understand the point of dropping a player after one match.

    Showed courage, too. Played with a broken rib.

    No she wasn't, the full forward was Phil 'Snake' Baker.

    And I'm reasonably sure the competition was sponsored by Apple.

    Delicious or Fuji.

    No that was in JFLW.

    It is hard to fathom at the best of times. At the worst of times, it was not considered when OMac hit the team.

    Blame Yahweh whether you are talking about Eve from The Book of Genesis or Eve, The American Rapper.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.
