I’m surprised about Jetta and a little disappointed. But overall it was always going to be hard to replace our best forward and our best defender.

    Happy to see Mitch brown in - in the last two games last year he took 20 marks

    hopefully he clunks them tomorrow too!!

    Me too but I’m happy to see both petty and hibberd in.

    Petty officially back, well deserved.  Getting ahead but if he can impress the next couple of weeks it will make selection interesting upon Mays return.

    Thought Jetta had been pretty good, not fantastic but still really solid. Don’t particularly  like 3 changes to a team who has been so settled. I suppose 2 are forced though.

    No chance.

    He's cooked, he can't move. They're not dropping him after going 4-0 if they're confident on his return to form.

    'Dropped' due to injury. Didn't train today, clearly named as emergency in case he's right in time and is needed.

    We must continously fit players into the team, not let them wilt on the vine because we hesitate with team selection out of little more that conservatism. We are to go places, instead; real depth, not perceive depth, is critical to that aim. Give the talent games, and thus keep game-day performances at a level of competitive excellence. Pay for footballers should not be a series of sinecures.

    We all love Nev but have to accept that’s he’s getting near the end.

    Good ins, it shows our depth is impressive 

    Happy with the 'ins' as well. Also happy to see Daw as an emergency - he could be really useful and unsettling for the Hawks.

    Good selections, Hibbs has experience and needs to cement his place, reads the ball very well and will back up Lever for getting to the ball drop.

    Petty for his contested marking ability. Has been in the system for a while, and could work well under General Lever. 

    Mitch Brown to give us a leading target, hoping for 2 to 4 goals.

    Majak must have been close as he is the emergency.  

    Our balance still looks good. The depth we have is fine.

    Go Dees.

    Getting to the stage where you'd have to think that players like Lockhart and even Joel Smith are ahead of him - with players like Bowey waiting in the wings.

    I still don't like our forward line. Fritsch, Weed and BBB out is a massive blow. We have got by with 2 out but 3 might be pushing it.

    Lockhart, Hibberd and Bowey maybe - Joel Smith will probably never play seniors again

    I believe Jetta may not be 100%. His family has been sick so he may be a little unwell. 
    Either way, I hope to see him back in the side soon.

    • AFLW REPORT: Adelaide

      Last week’s bitter disappointment turned into player-led resolve as Captain Kate Hore marched her team onto a pristine Princes Park under perfect skies.
      The #DeeArmy banner said Bring The Heat and the Demons delivered a fierce, high-quality contest and ultimately outworked and outpaced the gallant Adelaide Crows to win by 11 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.

      The Demons 2026 AFL Fixture is as good as can be expected considering their performances and finishes the past two seasons.

They will travel 8 times including their home game in the Alice, their Gather Round game as well as a match against the Hawks in Tasmania. They will face, the Bombers, Bulldogs, the Suns, the Tigers, the Hawks and the Dockers twice.
