    Will be a tough game, good to have stability.

    English stays in, Bruce brought back, Johannisen too.

    If Preuss can hold his own against Grundy last week, then I'll back him in to do the same against English.

    Bruce doesn't worry me at all, although he has that 'Kent Kinglsey' vibe about him.

    Johannisen will give them some dash, so he is the pick of their 'ins'.

    Love the fact we made no change and I think, on paper, that we should be knocking them off by 3-4 goals.

    Good selection. Looking at the emergencies, it shows me that we have a very fit list at the moment with a lot of depth. Any of those four could have been slotted in and there would be little argument.

    Crozier is also a pretty good in for them.

    That’s fine, good to test ourselves against a full strength side. To borrow a modern footy term - football audit.

    Doggies close to full strength, looking pretty solid across all lines.

    A credit to the club to have the list in such great shape after 3 months off and then all the short turnarounds 

    most teams making 3+ changes

    TMac is a little lucky ... hope he hits the game hard and successfully.

    The Dogs team is strong enough. Good midfield   Solid down back

    not that confident for this one

    What was the question mark on English? Any way we can exploit it?

    I felt that Preuss held his own against Grundy (with Grundy clearly the classier player) so hopefully that may give him some confidence going into this match. 

    Settled teams are usually good teams, happy to take the same group from the Pies game. I feel like we win this week finals are well and truly in sight, and we can push further up the ladder. A loss and we’re back to the pack again, back to fighting.

    I thought he was starting to gain a little confidence over the last couple of weeks, he’s getting to more contests and bringing it to ground he just isn’t clunking marks. His hands just don’t seem to being coming up in a confident way, it’s more like he’s swatting. 

    But through his contested work we got a few goals last week, steps ahead.

    Bruce in worries me.. he kicked 4 last year when he played us and ragdolled Omac.. how will Lever go one on one.

    That's some handy ins for them. Crozier and Johannison are good inclusions also.

    Unfortunately not as confident.

    I love it!  Both teams at near full strength.  Should be a good contest and go some way towards sorting the real contenders from the pretenders.  I think we are the former!

    English likes to drift fwd to create a miss match , something to keep an eye on

    The main area exposed last week v Grundy was the pies ease at getting it out of the centre clearance, if Preuss can halve that this week we should be fine

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

    • CASEY: Collingwood

      It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
      The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
      Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
