Changes vs West Coast

Any whispers or inside word on who might come in this week? Preuss is a lock, given Gawn was smacked last time around. I feel Gawn will spend a large chunk of the game at FF. Anyone else interesting?

I understand the Match Committee is checking to see if we have anyone on our list by the name of Lazarus.

He'd be getting on a bit but we might be able to snaffle him in the mid season draft

Think Gawn will spend more time floating across the backline which is where they will hurt us. Pruess will do the ruckwork forward of centre

Not so sure on that, they only played 1 ruck last week (Vardy) with Oscar Allen the back up. We might decide to use Tim Smith to back up Gawn and then include another mobile forward option like Baker or ANB to replace Melksham.

Sustaining really high forward pressure and locking the ball forward might be the only way to stop their forwards tearing our backline apart.

Preuss for Keilty 

ANB for Melksham

Baker it Petty for Hibberd

We don’t really have many defenders left. I can’t see them debuting Jordan just yet. Wagner has been in good form in the VFL but we don’t necessarily want another small forward in.

The broom has osteitis pubis so I’m going with:

Out: Melksham, Keilty, Hibberd

In: ANB, Preuss, Petty

I reckon Tim Smith to get the call up rather than Petty. Petty is built like Cale Morton.

I heard there’s a broom in the cupboard that’s been in decent form, it might be a chance of getting selected.

LoL... 'ere  'ET',  try this one. 

...  cleans up,  as a small forward.

Melksham out I would look to bring in Tim Smith and ask him to play a similar game as Melk. Run through the midfield every now and then and play high half forward.

Hibberd out then move Fitsch back there to keep some run out of the back line. Anb to come back or maybe Ossie Baker gets a run. it may be too much of an ask to debut him in Perth against WC. it may scar him for life.

Preuss for Keilty. Dec has had a taste and now knows the steps he needs to take. let him mature some more at Casey.

Got myself into a corporate box next Friday night with all the fruit.

Whatever happens, I’ll end up inebriated. 

Yep....the old corp box

The words of bitter experience?

Maybe put it in a book. "Confessions of a Corporate Box Invitee". Then there was the time the boss brought his very religious wife with him. Turned out she was more than a little saucy! I had no sooner sat down next to her ...

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs Fremantle

    The Demons were blown out of the water and were absolutely embarrassing against the Fremantle Dockers in Alice Springs ultimately going down by 92 points and getting bundled out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.
