    Hoping Viney and Harmes are right to play. Our depth is good, but Dunstan and Melksham are a step down and we need our best up and running to take on Freo. Freo are the best defensive side in the comp this year, so we’ll have our work cut out for us.

    Goody said Harmes would be out 2-3 weeks.

    Harmes was 2-3 apparently. Melk a lock for #200.

    I thought Dunstan was pretty good defensively but sloppy with the ball.

    Not sold on that mate.

    7 touches, 1 tackle. Kicked a nice goal, but was invisible pretty much otherwise.

    Can’t speak for Werridee but I just assumed he was out given he was subbed off. If they mentioned once on the broadcast why Langdon went off, I certainly didn’t hear it.

    That was my impression?

    They said it was ribs, but no elaboration as to the severity.

    Some classic Melk marking contests that resulted in easy marks to North too.

    Harmes out and doubts over Viney, Langdon. Hopefully they’re back.

    None of Melk, Bedford or Dunstan impressed in any way.

    Doubt Salem will be ready. 

    Left field options would be Turner, Deak Smith, Rosman at half back with Gus to the wing. Baker on the wing. Or Andy Moniz-Wakefield.

    Personally I’d really consider a look at Deakyn Smith down back and move Gus back to the wing.

    Yeah I might be wrong with Langdon he may play. Surely Milkshake gets to 200 match winning goal. Thought he was better than Dunstan who is a butcher.

    I agree with the bold bit. He doesn’t anticipate where the teammate will be when his disposal arrives. Consequently his handballs end up behind his teammate. Elementary mistake.

    No thanks Smith doesn't get enough of the ball yet.

    Langdon goes out, Dunstan goes out.

    Bedford in, Viney in.

    Haven't seen any of the game yet because of work but the afl app lists McDonald as 'out' implying a game ending injury. Is that correct and if so anyone know what injury?

    Guessing - But looked like he possibly sprained his ankle twice. Not 100% sure if the same leg, or even if he just twinged the  existing injury the  second time. Reckon he'll be right to go, played out the game.

    He was ok just strapped and got on with it. Same with Petty who looked really sore but played the game out.


    Dunstan out for Viney. We don’t need Dunstan if Viney is right to go as even if Langdon is out Dunstan gives us nothing on the wing.

    Out. Dunstan  

    In. Viney

    ?? Langdon.  We need more run. Consider Baker to bring in 

    3/ 

    ?? Melksham?? Probably stays in to get 200 as Harmes unlikely to be fit and available 

     

    And … Salem hopefully back soon - probably for Swans game

    If we need more run we will use Bedford.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
