CHANGES: Rd 06 vs Richmond


Demonland

Recommended Posts

Brown makes us better than either Weid or TMac and so comes in for one of them. I’d keep TMac after tonight. But it’s not an easy decision between the two. 

Keep a watch out on two others though: Lever looked proppy after the game, boots off and limping. No ice from what I could see. And ANB was also limping, and I think maybe had an injury issue this week?

There is no chance we will make a change after such a dominant performance. Weid was good he will need a drop of form and Brown to play well in the 2's for Brown to get his spot back. Sorry Ben but you are definitely playing in the 2's next week,. A great problem to have.

Ben Brown is the most overrated player on demonland. I will put my house on it that he won't play against the tigers.

This should be the shortest thread ever. We won by 67 points. 
 

No change.

With all due respect. I couldn't disagree any more. Weideman doesn't take the spot of Ben Brown, one of our most important players, just because he played 1 good game 3 weeks ago. Using the same logic, Tomlinson would've stayed in the team and kept Petty out despite Petty being the much better player.

In: Ben Brown
Out: Weideman

Weideman is widely regarded on demonland as being a player that is playing for his career and yet somehow he is still overrated.

In  BBB, JVR

Out  TMAC, WEID

If JVR plays well tomorrow 

Probably too early for JVR but I like what I see from him, his body looks ready for AFL, Surely he is eyeing off a spot in the one's.

I thought I saw ANB cop a nasty cork from the big GWS ruckman in a marking contest.  Ran out the game so hopefully will be fine to go next week.

Out... this ridiculous showing dissent 50 rule. What is this??? It is the stuff of fifties and sixties schoolyard discipline. A player not even on the mark throws his hands up in mild frustration and gets pinged for 50?? Come on. Happy to have a verbal 50 rule but this is outrageous. AFL need to get rid of this blight on the game. Are we trying to take the human element of frustration totally away? What next? DREAM POLICE pinging blokes for facial expressions depicting dissent?? Get rid of it!

Let me know where I pick the keys up from. Listen to Goody’s press conference and read between the lines and I suggest Weid stays to partner Benny. That would be the change I would make as well.

Last year, Hunt lost his place in the team and couldn't get it back. We have to reward form. As good as BBB is, he has to now wait just like he had to last year.  He makes us a better side but our forward line clicked into top gear last night and it looked very, very good.

No change. Unless Lever is still limping today.

It's funny, my reading of those comments were, Sam that's what you need to keep doing - that's tbe standard of contest.

And when you go back to Casey keep focusing on those things - don't get down, you're on the right track.

I rate him as capable of kicking three in a GF when it’s an actual game. And reality rates him that way too.

And get ready to hand over your keys. Perhaps Demonland should get your house? Imagine the servers this thing could run on with $200k? $300k? What are we looking at here?

My reading was, competition is tight and we haven’t decided yet.

Brown will come in for one of them, but I don’t know how you’d decide which. I thought Weid looked more dangerous aerially, but TMac was crucially involved in a lot of scoring passages. I thought both were good. It’ll probably be Weid but I can see reason in all the possible options.

Weid did some really good things last night. He was playing BBB role to a tee and got up the ground regularly, even brought the ball to the ground. 

He was a F50 target on many occasions but didn't clunk a few he should have.

He will be stiff but he ain't no BBB sadly.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
