So Harmes is effectively omitted? Can’t say I understand that. Or is he still injured?

A victim of circumstances is all. He’s unlucky, but you also can’t punish the players who got the job done so well last week.

    Great team....Only 2 missing from our premiership side. Melk n Hunt replacing TMac n Harmes.

    The problem being that we've tried, struggled and ultimately failed, to replace one of those  all year!

    Thought Weideman could hold his spot but Brownie in is ok and Weideman can have his jets cooled with three to go before the main stuff.Long weeks to go yet. Like that Melksham is getting regular times to get his spot and movement  cemented and will be harder at it this week too.

    No Adams really hurts the Pies. Their midfield is like the opposite Melbourne, heaps of runners with now no inside bulls

    Keeping mostly a winning side, will really make those trying to get in to go harder and make those that are there to do the same. 
    and they are rewarded for playing the rôle assigned to them, without worrying about the number of kicks they might get. 
     

    I like it……..winning each week

    Never lies, often misleads… 

    We play this game three times, we win twice - but the other time…

    Yep. good move to bring in Brown in place of Weideman. Essentially the same team and structure as last week and that worked well. Harmes is unlucky but a similar situation to last season with Hunt getting injured and not able to get his place back because of his replacement's performance.

    Strong team with a lot of flexibility in the personnel and structures. If it plays with the same pressure as last week will get the 4 points.

    Want it to be a comfortable win... 4 goals +

    If it is going to be wet then BBB in for the weed isn't going to make much difference. Our smaller forwards are going to have to play well.

    Im hearing that the rest has really given him a boost - "haven't felt this good for 14 or 15 weeks". Hopefully that translates with some hard leading and a few snags. He is due for a halfa dozen isnt he?

    Don’t mind the one change as mentioned earlier reward for top effort, it will force Harmes and Bowey to work harder and stay sharp to force their way back in and likewise keep Melk and Hunt on their toes. Meanwhile van Rooyen and Thommo can keep playing great footy and be ready if needed.!!!

    I don't think BBB will ever be due half a dozen at this stage in his career. His best is behind him and you'd have to be playing a very injury depleted backline to see him get on an unencumbered lead that many times. If he's due for 3 or 4 then he will be the perfect piece we've been missing.

    So you're saying every $1.35 chance wins? Given the bookie's profit margin $1.35 is actually $1.40+ true odds. If every $1.40 chance won we'd all be millionaires.

    I think one thing, not that it's been missed, but hasn't been spoken of a lot is that Kozzie is back in goal kicking form. !1 goals in 3 weeks isn't it?

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
