    Good point Wells!

    It will take the Dickmond and filth supporters a while to catch on.  The iPhone/android dealers  around Punt road and Smith Street will make a fortune. 

    They may even do as well as the dealers of other ...err .... products , in the those areas .

    Of course the orthodontists will remain miles in front.

    Pretty handy North side given they are without 5 of their best 10 mids. 

    Backline should keep us honest and their forward line is very underrated with some tricky match ups. 

    Would like to see Simpkin, LDU and Cunnington really test us but I still think it's nice to play against a young and hungry side rather than a mature side that isn't that keen on giving much away in preseason.

    From reading the training reports, Dunstan was doing additional running. His omission could be due to a minor injury, although that would have been reported. Or they could be preparing him for a particular role, and he hasn't reached those standards yet in match sim. Ben Brown was given a specific training regiment before his recall. Dunstan maybe in the same situation.

    Yep thats it based  on what Ive seen at Training

    It will be interesting to see where some of the players get a run during this match. No points up for grabs so I would imagine there will be a few trials of thoughts and ideas that have developed over the off season.

    Will be interesting to see Turner getting a run. Not just to see his skill levels but also to see how he has been schooled in the defensive structures. Of most interest to me will be to see who runs through the wing positions, Jordon, Baker are obvious but we might see Hunt get a run there as well. They might give Gus an extended run in the center.

    With the forwards there are a lot of tall options to rotate through there.

    Will be good to see some footy and I hope there are no injuries to either team.

    Anyone know the format? Will it be 4 quarters? Will we have large interchange benches? Will all the teams follow the same format or will it be agreed on the day by the participants? Any info appreciated.

    They were originally going to do 6." qtrs"  with unlimited bench. North have had some gastro go through the joint (going to be a few players out)so going to be 4 qtrs not sure how long,  with even numbers on bench (not sure how many).

    Gastro? We should postpone the game just to pizz Chris Scott off.

    Will Noble have a sook when we beat North by 12 goals?

    Dam it. Mixed emotions.  Time to get Kayo but buy murdoch another ivory back scratcher.

    A Bombers mate of mine went to watch Essendon yesterday. He said immediately after the match there was a full-length seconds match. The supporters didn’t know this match was scheduled until it started. So I guess one needs to be prepared should something similar eventuate today.

    GOODY will have a sook if we beat North by 12 goals. 12 goals is a GF winning margin, not a S&Gs match winning margin.

    Fox has a blog for the game:  https://go.arena.im/live/fox-sports-australia/q9ckwvX?v=2

    NMfc also will:  "There will also be full coverage of the game on NMFC website and app and on the NMFC Official accounts on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook."

    Can't find a ref that mfc will run a commentary but will check the website/twitter when the game starts. 

    • Thanks 1

    Will be interesting to see how Sam W goes today.

    Best of luck to Adam T today too.

    Go Dees.

    Can someone please tell me what time this game starts?

    Never mind

    Like others the only thing I hope for in these games is “no injuries” . Make no mistake all teams are going to come at us hard in the “we are tougher than you” stakes. Can’t we just play “ring a ring a rosy” and avoid any physical contact. Park our guns on the bench and play our second eleven. Still cricket season, far too early for footy. Maybe water the ground to avoid knee injuries and see how hungry our fringe players are in competing for scarce spots. 

    It will be good to see some footy again but the result means little:  2021 we were absolutely thrashed by the Bulldogs in the preseason and then, the rest is history!

    In fairness we were missing some pretty big names against the Dogs whereas they were full strength.

    Do what I'm doing. I've just subscribed to Kayo, but will cancel after the 14 day free membership period.

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
