Are we allowed to forfeit and save money on airfares etc?

The way I see it, they owe us for giving them a soft training run in the PF, keeping them fresh enough to overrun the filth in the Granny

Keilty, Omac, Jeffy and if we are gonna call a spade a spade Tracca and Gus deserve to be dropped.

So Lewis will definitely miss, yes? Who played well at casey today? 

Preuss must come back in obviously someone needs to replace hibbard. So next week we are relying on Oscar and frosty to stop Kennedy & Daring? Great.

Keilty most likely to go for Preuss. Omac should be but who replaces him. I’d keep Garlett in. He’s getting to the right spots, he’s just fumbling at the moment. He’ll find some touch. Trac was our most dangerous forward tonight. Won most if not all one on ones when the ball is on the ground. And gus, he’ll b right.

Out: Hibbo, Keilty, Lewis (he re injured himself in the last)

In: Preuss, ANB, whoever played well for Casey (didn’t watch the game as was out for mother’s day)  

I pray Melksham will be fine, but it’s a short break and a long trip so I’m not holding my breath. 

I assume Fritsch will go back to defense to cover Hibbo. Preuss direct replacement for Keilty.

Gus hasn’t played this bad since 2017. Deserves another week given we have players in the side who haven’t played well since 1978 and still manage to get games.

Out: Hibberd, maybe Melk, Lewis, Garlett, Keilty. 

In: Preuss (Keilty), T Smith (Melk), ANB (Jeff), Jordon (Hibberd), C Wagner (Lewis).

My guess is they keep Lewis and Garlett despite the damage they must be doing to team culture with continued weak efforts.

Simply is not going to happen, the coaching panel do not react in the same way as  supporters, and thankfully they don't

Hibberd, Melksham and Lewis are almost certain to miss.  You would think Kielty is out in favour of Preuss as well. 

Given West Coasts tall forwards, I wonder if we might see Petty come back in.  He was emergency today and has been playing well. 

Given Spargo was sitting out today as an emergency as well, I suspect he comes in.  That leaves one. 

ANB seems likely as the player with runs on the board, but I would really like to see them take a risk and give Baker a shot.  He's more risk/reward.  He can hit the scoreboard, but won't do the grinding work and assists that ANB provides.

What you mean they don't put the beer down and dribble [censored] all over their keyboards

Awful game, both sides trying not to lose, but we got the 4 points

Coaches will review and make changes if necessary

We have few players to come in, but will likely need to find replacement for Hibberd, Melksham, and Lewis at a minimum 

We need Preuss in, obviously, but with our injuries will Keilty be dropped for him?

I’ll guess...

IN: Preuss, ANB, Baker, C Wagner
OUT: Kielty, Hibberd, Melksham, Lewis

As I recall, nobody played well in 1978 ?

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
