Well picked. Italian heritage?

Yes? and am finally (trying) to learn the language.

 

Losing our most skilled player who is in ripping form for Spargo makes me want to puke.

i hope the team puts in 100% effort for the full game today. Do that and we’ll always be a chance.


Backs to the wall today. Nothing to lose. i hope we have a red hot go and if we do we will be in good shape going forward as players return.

Clearly Spargo is in to pinch-hit against Mumford.

Or possibly, somewhat more realistically, to hang over the shoulders of Heath Shaw all game to slow him down.

In the end, we all know it isn't going to be team selections that win or lose the game. Not with a dozen players out and everything on the line.

 

Our wins have been against ordinary teams, and have been by small margin coz we can't kick straight. Wet weather (if it happens) today will just make that problem even worse. Yes GWS has a poor record at the G , but ours is no better so we cant take any confidence from the venue.

We might go hard enough to prevent a blowout, but thats the best we can expect imo.

Finals are still possible though....................... *cough cough.

How does Salem go from no concussion symptoms to a late out? Mixed messaging again from the FD. Huge out.

I didn’t think he did?

Thyroid yes but can’t recall him having too many concussions. 

There was that time a brick hit him in the head... not sure of any others

Bizarre. 9 days as well. Surely it wasn't just a "wait and see how you wake up oj game day"? If he was still showing symptoms after 6-7 days it's a given he isn't playing. The FD is a joke. 

Better hurry up and get to the ground folks. Only 20 minutes until the first bounce and there's only 90, 95 thousand seats left.

He had several concussion episodes in the 18 months before the brick incident, which was in 2017 preseason.

 

On a side note, just read that Paddy McCartin has been put on the LTI list and still can't train.  Really sad for him.

So while it is disappointing to lose Salem today I'm glad the club is being cautious, especially with his history.

Concussion symptoms come and go.  He may have been fine a few days ago but not today.

Even if he hadn't fully recovered by selection time, I reckon the club hoped he would be good by game time.

Either way we did the right thing to wait till the last minute and to pull him out when found to not be ok.

Can't go due to junior football today grrr.

 


As the other posters have mentioned - two men and a dog here. It’s actually nice weather for footy. I was getting a bit tired of coming to home games in jeans and a t shirt. It just didn’t feel right.

Go Dees ❤️?

predict we'll start strong but then go goalless for 3 quarters. giants by 42.

Spargo in is mind boggling. His form at afl level this year has been horrible, and his form in the vfl hasn’t been worthy of promotion. Really shows the coaches and selection committee playing favorites to pick someone in such poor form. Either that or we’ve got more injuries than I realized and the fit options are down to Spargo and Preuss?

Spargo in for Salem. Oh boy.

Time to get your praying hats on.


Weakest crowd I can remember since the Neeld days. Great day for footy. Where is everyone?

Just got here. Come on boys same effort as last week and we won't leave disappointed. 

please never play that version of our song again.

 

16k max I'd say.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
