Scratch Matches 2020

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

Whose Back Pocket?

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.

Come on W’DEE, chuck Dunkley on a wing and place 4 Demonlanders on the interchange.

Any confirmation that there is going to be a scratch match on the weekend? Hopefully the two teams can work something out.

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: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
