    Word going round McDonald is a late out.

    I’m not 100% how true it is

    I spoke to a senior players wife this morning who told me there was a question whether Tom would be ok to go tonight. His back is giving him grief and he didn’t pull up well after the flight to and from Brisbane.

    100% rain predicted all night, starting from 6pm and going through until about 11pm

    I hope we make changes and go in a bit smaller....learn our lesson from the WB game

    Going with the Weid who can't hold a mark in the dry. Mmmm

    If true why put him through 8 more hours on the plane to Perth? Guess they thought he might improve.

    Weid to kick 5 and his trade value to go through the roof. Kill two birds with one stone!

     

    There are isolated showers/storms there but no torrential rain. Calm the farm folks. Plenty of the game will be played with no rain.

    We did have to fly over Monday and quarantine for 7 days, they wouldn’t have known that TMac wouldn’t be fit. 🤷🏼‍♂️

    100% rain.  14c. Severe winds. Perfect Viney conditions.  I’d love Lockhart in but given options it’s likely Jordon or Vandenburg likely.

    I do have some back problems myself and a day like they had would cause me the same problems. Hopefully if he plays he’s 100% if not I hope the rest helps 

    If weid is in , does he play in backline on darling or oscar allen

    Jordon in not Weid…going small. Goody on 360.

    Would have thought Vanders to hit in hard in tough conditions.

    who's the medi sub?

    Goody just said on 360 that JJ will replace TMac

    Hoping that umpire 22 is not on the roster tonight

    Nicholls, Dalgleish and Howorth. 
     

    No 22 or Margetts, but here’s hoping Nicholls has finally forgiven Gawn for smashing the ball out of the ruck after one of his poor centre bounces.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
