May will play Marsh Series Game 2. Max Gawn the same. McDonald also overcoming a minor setback. Likely to play Marsh 2. 

There is a fair chance that none of those things will happen, particularly May. What makes you so sure?

Do we pick 26 for the Marsh games? I'd suggest we'll only just be able to field a full side this week based on recent updates.

it's 17 of February. Season starts in a month. Cool ya jets. May will play Marsh Series Game 2. Max Gawn the same. McDonald also overcoming a minor setback. Likely to play Marsh 2. I have no idea about VDB. Would love to know if he trained. 

Wish I had your confidence. May has been out for 5 weeks already when it was thought to be very minor originally (new setback last week).

I hope you are right!

Is TBA the new 4-6?

Why happened to TBC?

I was only at training for 45 minutes or so but Brayshaw was most definitely in the main group and fully involved. Suspect Smith was also.Barring unforeseen mishaps Gawn, Tmac & May almost certain starters for the Hawthorn game going by the banter in the rehab group. AVB no show. Petty is a worry.

 


This is what happens when none of the usual track watches show up to a training session; Demonland turns on each other.

With only snippets, we don't know who's tracking well and who isn't, so we begin to speculate. And in standard MFCSS, we think the worst has happened.

 

Are we still playing Essendon this Friday or is Casey turning up? Interesting to see how many fit players don’t get selected for the Marsh Series opener.

Where is this game going to be located, please?


May looked to be limping very noticeably today.

They ought to cancel the Essendon hitout as we're running our of players:

Here is the side for Saturday if we go ultra conservative and disregard players who are either currently injured, in rehab or have been in rehab for a large part of pre season:

B Jetta O Mac Hibberd

HB Harmes Lever Salem

C Langdon  Petracca Jones

HF Hunt  Weed   ANB

F  Fristch   Brown  Pickett

FOLL Jackson Oliver  Viney

INT J Wagner  Hore  Lockhart

       Sparrow   Jordan  Bedford  

Rivers is literally the one and only player I couldn't sneak in. But could put him in for one of the others on the bench.

Unavailable - T Mac, Gawn, Brayshaw, Tomlinson, Preuss, Spargo, Hannan, Melksham, Petty, J Smith, VDB, May, Neita, Chandler and who ever else I've overlooked.

And hopefully all OK with T Mac.

The most recent training report indicated he rolled his ankle and didn't complete training.

(unless you believe the Friday training report when Lever kicked 6 on Weideman, and T Mac kicked 3 sausages in match sim)

The vision shows, he is just a little bit proppy on that knee. just a little.

 I'd reckon he'll be back into main group within 7 to 10 days.?   Just a hiccup, so far.

Some Kade Chandler action that you've all been chomping at the bit for.

 

Just as long as all posts are winners, i don't mind.

Tom McDonald with ongoing knee management. Hopefully he comes good this year. He's possibly the most important player on our list at the moment, as he's our only proven big goal kicker.

https://www.afl.com.au/news/374096/big-demons-forward-joins-all-australian-ruckman-in-rehab-group

That's OK,  we need our number two's in all positions to get more exposure, with some chop outs from our more experienced guys;  so the 2ic's get the support they need,  so they can take the game on with confidence.

https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/tp-melbourne-demons?year=2020&sby=15

It will be our 2ic's,  that take us to the big Dance in Springtime. 

And looking through our youngest list players,  we have some talent there, to develop.  The future looks bright.

It's getting to that point with our current  2ic's,  the 26Yrs and younger,  who i think will be our regular finals nuclei. 

 

Now for 2020,  and lets give the top 8,  a shake.

The world has gone mad. 

They consider it  in 'house'  via Hugh Laurie,  then TBA, when diagnoses confirmed.  after the event. ?

I thought it was an ankle. So much for our crack team of Demonland Trackwatchers.

He might have something separate with his knee but it was definitely an ankle/foot issue on Wednesday.

That is, unless T Mac's knee ends at his heel.

Think you'll find Brayshaw, Tomlinson, J Smith and O Baker might have a run somewhere. Not sure of the seriousness of Dunkley's ankle either.

Don't they essentially mean the same thing?

I was being a little facetious but it is probably up for debate.

They need to 'confirm' the severity of the injury before 'advising' of the potential length?

Ugh.

Who really cares.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
