The week after the bye is never easy and the local derby against an improving Frankston will be a challenge for the undefeated Demons.

VFL: Local Derby for Demons

Our VFL side takes on Frankston in round 10 of the Smithy’s VFL season. The Dolphins would be the closest VFL club only 30 minutes down the road and have won their past two games on the trot to turn their season around. The last time we faced off against the Dolphins was back in 2019 when we prevailed in the wet by 5-points in the last game of the season over an improving Frankston outfit.

The action starts at 2:05 pm, Sunday 29th May; Gate 1 for GA will open from 12:00 pm.

Would have been a good game for Salem to have one or two quarters

Used to really like the VFL but it's going backwards

Might help if the two comps got their schedule synced a little better.  Seem to be terribly out of wack.

At least this way we can watch both matches and the sub can play for Casey if he doesn't get a run with MFC.

I meant not having the buy in rounds where AFL affiliates dont have the buy, starting the VFL season so late.  I didnt mean we'd be better off if they were exactly synced as in playing the same day/time etc 55 so i believe we're probably on a similar page here.

Maybe 13 or 14 Dees AFL listed probably in Casey team. Hope to see Hibbo get a run and back on the park. Mitch Brown probably the key to winning this one. 

When are the lineup announced?

Buy means BYE DD and the issue is 2 different organisations run the competitions.( as you know)

 AFL  and VFL so it is pure chance one would think if the fixture in VFL took anything into  account about the AFL. Draw especially with a " very friendly flexible floating fixture " that sees us off FTA for 5 games in a row vs Dogs Friday night favouritism despite poor early season form. 

No team released yet ?

Boys have a couple of interesting weeks coming up. After Frankston on Sunday, curtain raiser v. Sydney at the MCG then pies at home.

For those considering a trip, Frankston is a lovely ground with glimpses of the bay through tall pine trees.

On a Sunday nearby parking is easy and they used to have a delightful sausage sizzle.

Suggest you go over to the far side from the entrance as many of the locals who congregate on the entrance side were quite well lubricated and vocal when I was last there

van Rooyen out that's a huge blow. Big game for Mitch.

I thought JVR might actually be able to push for senior selection.  Definitely better option than Weideman in my view. 

No Bell? Injured ?

With those changes, I suspect that the team might struggle against Frankston who are a fairly solid outfit.

Weid has no future at AFL level.

Is this match going to be shown live anywhere? If yes, could someone please post a link. Thanks.

Hoping Laurie has a good game and can push for a debut and take Melkshams spot in the team as a high half forward. AMW also was looking fantastic before his concussion, hopefully he can pick up where he left off.

 

This just confirms to me that clearly we’ve had a bit of illness go thru the club this week. Trac sick. Majak sick. I assume JVR is too.
