Agree Chandler looked a mile off. Sparrow to replace him

    I reckon we need to give Chandler a run. Loved his over the head handball to Spargo for a goal. Dropping him after a week won’t be great for his long term confidence.

    In a winning side, playing against a lower side, Chandler gets another week to find the pace of the game. 

    Melk was sub, so needs to perform at Casey to push back in.

    Chandler another week unless Viney is ready ahead of schedule

    Chandler has to get another go. But if Jackson is fit - who goes?

     

    I was all for getting BBB but he is slow and very clumsy at ground level.

    Yeah does LJ come in for Weid or Brown or Chandler?


    No change. You can’t drop a player after one week. 
    Viney needs to be 100% against the Dogs.

    Any idea how far off Jackson and Viney are? 

    no change, unless those guys are fit. 

    if they are 

    Chandler, Weideman out 

    Viney, Jackson in

    I liked the idea of Chandler but I think he makes way for Sparrow.

    It will be interesting to see if Jackson is available because I did like what Weideman brought to the team.

    IN: JACKSON AND MELKSHAM

    OUT: WEIDEMAN AND CHANDLER


    I'd be tempted to move Tom McDonald up to the wing, get Brayshaw into the middle to help with Clearances and keep Weideman, Jackson and Brown all forward when Jackson is back

    Yep. Move our best forward by far out of the forward line. Brilliant.

    I expect Chandler to be given 3 or even 4 games. It seems consistent with Goodys changes. The only difference was when Mitch Brown came and went and Id say that Mitch was well aware of his backup position. Id also think that Majak would be under no illusions if he got gifted a game. Different for youngsters and seasoned veterans.

    Given he regularly played on the wing when he dominated in 2018 and spent the entire pre season training for that role i'd probably look at knowing what i'm talking about before getting too sarcastic ?

    Viney and Jackson are best 22. If fit they both come back in.

    i thought the Weid was competing with TMac. Reckon its actually one of the Weid or BB. 

    If the club consider Chandler best 22 potential then he deserves another go.

    I think it best we go no change unless Viney needs a game before we play the dogs

    Actually you don't know what your talking about.  Firstly he didn't play on a wing in 2018 except for brief periods he played as a permanent fwd.

    Secondly Goodie has stated ad nauseaum at every presser that McDonald will stay forward & not go anywhere else.

    And move Lockett to CHB and Hudson to full back.

    I'm shocked how controversial this is, McDonald trained during the pre season as a wing, his strength was his ability to run hard forward and provide a target. and also push back and help the defense. 

    he's doing something very similar now, it's just his starting position is slightly different, he regularly pushes right up the ground and runs forward hard.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
