Baker has not shown anything and does not run as hard devensively, I’d give someone else a go.  Push ANB to the wing and bring in Bedford 

Couldn't agree more. Langdon isn't just a foot soldier that does a job on that wing he brings things to the table that almost no-one in the team has and that is his aerobic and anaerobic ability. Big loss, will need to find a way to simplify the role for whoever takes it.

Sparrow in for Melksham's role, Melksham to Langdon's role?

 

Well I know what I’m doing if I’m Brisbane. Run off Melksham. The man has absolutely no defensive running in him. He can kick a footy, but Jesus he is soft as butter. 

Outside of Oliver, I reckon our most important player. This could be dangerous with Brisbane. A massive massive loss.


We have had a number of players off for 1 week like Salem and Jackson.

Could we be low-key resting players in a distributed way under the gause of injury?

Left field thought but could we move Salem to the wing for a week? He definitely has the tank and works hard both defensively and offensively. 

Arguing against myself we need our small defenders at the top of their game next week and Salem is pivotal there... Jetta is past it. How has Lockhart been performing at Casey?

I’m just not a Baker fan. Maybe it’s Jones.

Maybe, but does Melksham have the required tank? I'd like to se him on the wing to find out...otherwise I'd be confident of ANB filling the role...

If Ed is feeling ok to play next weekend shave his head, cover him in tats and call him “Nathan Jones”.

Interesting that no-one has suggested T-Mac to the wing and Ben Brown forward. What a difference 2 months makes.

Don't fully get the lack of love for Baker.

Yeah he's no #positivelingers (let's face it other than the man, who is?), but I think he showed good intent and attack on the ball when we played him late last year and again against North.

If his Casey form is decient enough (mind you that's hard to evaluate with the lack of games) if we are not prepared to play him in scenarios such as this, you wouldn't think that fairs well for keeping him on the list.  However I doubt that's the case, since he was promoted for the North game and an advantage of Casey not playing this week is that he'll be pretty fresh as opposed comming off a six day break that Brisbane will be.

Gus to offensive wing

That's robbing Peter to pay Paul 2 potential Losses there on both wings.

1. ANB to one and Angus to  continue his team defensive play on the other.

2. If not then Baker gets a chance.agsin. 
 

3. If we are very brave Rivers to Langers  wing and Lockhart to  mind the Lions smalls. 
 

DONT MOVE Angus he is going fine in his side of the oval.

No  it doesn't Tommy  i s not a wingman NEVER was and NEVER WILL bE 

He played  about 3/5 mins on the wing  to get mobile then went forward in 2018. 
 

How any one thinks he is best in our team on the wing full time  as against a KPF is not watching the game very well.

Gee what rubbish Salem was listed as soreness but we don't really know the real meaning of that.

Jacko did have a real hand  injury and Ed let Sparrow on who I believe is concussed also.

Salo didn't look his usual busy self last night. Doubt he missed for 'general soreness'...

Sparrow concussion too? He was on for all of 1 min?

Huge loss because the reality is we don’t have an adequate replacement.

We’ve seen Baker and chandler this year in cameos but I’d like to see Bedford brought into the side. See if he can step up. He’s done enough at Casey so has earned the right.


I’d try Hunt on the wing. His tank has improved (particularly remember the tandem running he did with Langdon vs the tigers) as has his defensive game. 

bring Lockhart in to play defensive on either Bailey or McCarthy. Hibbo for Cameron. 

Ed Langdon cannot be replaced like for like. He’s a HUGE loss for us - devastating news from an incredibly impressive win last night. 

Baker very unconvincing in the North game…and no chance this weekend to make his claim with the VFL cancelled. 

ANB or Hunt on the offensive wing for mine - all have a good tank and have improved their disposals.

#positivelingers

 

Did anyone notice how and when it happened?

Not mentioned in the commentary as far as I recall.

No one has a tank like Langdon, so it's probably likely a couple of players rotate in that role. Gut feel is they'll bring in Baker, but it worries me having him and Gus on the wings, neither are great with the ball atm.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
