Out: Hunt, Browns, 

In: May, anyone who can kick to another demon.

 

Out forward structure dumb long bombs and any coach that thinks that’s a good plan.

We will lose to the filth. Moore and Howe will mark everything.

    Injured, having surgery and will miss the rest of the season I believe, Nasher.

    Ben Brown has to go. Who for I have no idea but he is to slow and cumbersome. Would also look closely at Picket and Spargo. No influence at all on the game. When they actually win the ball they just turn it over, Hunt also needs to go for Hibberd. Thank goodness we had Gawn and Gus as they were about only guys that won their contests and had a go.

    Tomlinson too! Bring in Weed for BB logic is Ben is badly out of touch, Dan Turner to debut for Tomlinson , May for M Brown (He's a tall HHF not KPD) & Hibberb for Hunt that speechie he went for when he was one on one has lost me.

    Out: Tomlinson, Hunt, B. Brown

    In: May, Daw, Hibberd

    Lucky to get another game: Spargo, ANB, Bowey, Sparrow.

    Me too, will be a long time before i can trust him in defence again. Cant believe I'm saying this, but i can't wait for Joel Smith to return.

    The forward line is a shambles, we got away with it last year but the game moves on, all they do is bomb it in BB is not a pack mark player but we still do it, players are so structured they kick down the line without looking to see if it can be switched to open it up, players not manning up and allowing to many short kicks which sets up players down the ground.

    Teams are chasing us down we need to change things up to get back on track.

    Not Weid please.

    Try Pettybor Tomlinson up there before him.

    The bye can't come quick enough, a lot of players out of form.

    In: Weideman, May

    Out: B. Brown, Tomlinson

    Sparrow has been poor for a while but don't think we have an ideal replacement for him. Don't think Weideman is the answer either but BB can't stay in the team with his form over the past month. With McDonalds ankle rumoured to be cactus, we are quickly running out of key forward options.

    We have no key forward in any kind of form. I sya we try Petty inside 50 and leave Thommo in

    And give Hibberd a run if he's fit (i don't know if he is)

    Out: Hunt and Brown (not sure whether Mitch or Ben, its a toss up)

    In: Hibberd and MAy

    Steven May and automatically we are 30% better.

    Enough is enough, bring Van Rooyen.

    Don't know who goes out, don't care.

    Also please stop using Hunt as full back he is clueless.

    Also tempting to bring the riv back, take sparrow out and slot Gus at HF. We are desperate for classy kicking forward of centre.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
