Interested in the concept? Will they play the full games on the Dees website? There is no other way of watching the reserves play. Is there a way to persuade them to play the games on the Dees website.

 

Would be great if they did.  Perhaps they could get the guys that did the Nth Melbourne practice match back in.  That was a great little production really. 

Always like to see the reserves and I'm glad the AFL and the clubs have got together and enabled these games to happen.  With a nearly completely fit list (for once) but also plenty of developing talent and depth, I think it's an advantage for the MFC for these games to be going ahead.

It's suppose to be about 16 a side so this is what the team could look like.

Has a scratch match against Carlton this week been locked in?


I doubt Pruess or Petty will play, they didn’t appear in the match sim. But fingers crossed

wow that backline is tiny @WERRIDEE

I think one of Smith or OMac will be in the curtain raiser and playing Key DEF given Lever is fit

Why don't they play Spargo in the Back Pocket they won't be able to see him.

Yep, latest injury report has Petty (groin), Preuss (Achilles) and Hore (toe) sidelined. At least a month for all of them.

Yes disappointing.

Petty is one bloke that I really want to see progress this year either as a tall back or key forward. He might be on the trade table at year end unfortunately as the Crows may dial up his number and he be tempted. 

 Preuss is fragile for a guy that looks like an absolute warrior.  

Toes must be the new AFL issue !!

Remember that anything goes with these matches . It's open to the clubs to swap players, reduce numbers etc etc

I think that one of them will play and the other will be carryover emergency. So I don't think either will play.

With Hore, Preuss and Petty out. It doesn't look good for Petty. I have had to change the team.

I reckon we stack our reserves with best 22 and focus on this match. Carlton will never see it coming.

Interesting. 

 

We are playing at Princess Park against the blues Saturday at 11 i think. Be fun to sneak in and watch

A bit strange the clubs involved in tonight’s game didn’t provide any score updates or reports for their supporters. Wonder if it was an AFL directive as the broadcasters were trialling some TV tricks.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
