Please please please don’t let this mean Petty is injured. We are holding it together by some duct tape as it is down back. 

Yep, we are really missing reasonable rebound and eyes-up midfielders.

The article posted on MFC announcing his debut mentioned that he is 194cm, so I'm presuming that's his current height. 

That was when he was recruited.  Anyone stood next to him at VFL huddles to asses??

    Bayley is not going to play CHF , expect Petty to start there . Turner will be FB and Mitch or Ben will start on the bench . Dees to win by 56 pts.

    So you reckon Lever and Turner as our only key defenders, and then Petty, Brown and Brown, with Jackson to rotate, all playing forward? Nah.

    Tommo at #localfooty today looked like he'd been dropped...

    I think it's a mistake

    He was well into best 22 before the injury  and we should be backing him in

    Hope he's Sub because he's our best swingman option without Tmac

    Blokes of the quality of Tommo and Hunt getting dropped shows that our depth is still good

    would be fantastic if Turner develops quickly as we need another tall option back as Smith is constantly injured

    Great selections the outs aren’t AFL standard confident we will win now

    20 of last years Grand Final 23 are playing.  Missing Rivers, TMac and May.  That's a very strong side.

    I think everyone knows what it says about Sam - Goodwin said in his presser he has been told he needs to improve (my words significantly) on certain things - my guess is 

    - not being easily pushed off the ball

    - bringing the ball to ground and stopping his opponent marking

    - compete with some aggression when not in possession 

    - heaven forbid kick a few goals 

    - run hard to create space and an option for players up the field 

    there may be more I don’t know but whatever it is he’s not close to a recall based on what I’m hearing unless he starts playing with a bit more physicality

    I'm not so sure re Petty at CHF CoolX.  If my memory serves me correct, going on what Goody hinted in yesterday's pressor, BBB & Mitch more than likely the  starters up forward.

    Not saying we won't swing Petty up forward at some stage but if we're playing 'the Demon way' i doubt it.  If he goes forward it's probably going to be in hope if the two talls (announced in starting line up) fail to fire.

    This is all absolutely correct and just about applies in equal measure to Jackson.

     

    We are still paying only $3 to win the flag!

    gees thought I might get some value this week!

    Two pretty major key spine (book end)  players though Swooper and don't really have genuine replacements for either.

    However, if Turner slots in tomorrow he might cover off Maysie's role.  Who knows he might even play a ripper.

    Then fingers crossed at least one of Mitch, BBB or Dogga can fire up in F50 to give us something.  Surely one of them can get going.  Third time lucky!?

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
