Big chance for the fans to see the team against actual opposition next Friday. 

What do we want to see from our team in this outing ?  I personally want to see Van Rooyen get a chance to show his wares and see what the plan is from the club re Maxy and Brody.

I'm keen to see how Lachie Hunter does in tandem with Langdon

Oh Hell I just want to see them play

    That would be nice, and given this is the unofficial practice mactch, it would be a big surprise.  Last year the unoffical one was streamed on the AFL and clubs websites and only the official practice game was on Fox.

    I don't even know what an RSEA is, but I've always imagined it pronounced to rhyme with "classy".

    Gus interviewed at the Coterie golf day: '...[there's] new positions for different players that the people will see...'

    It sounded like these were relatively settled outcomes from 'the heap of matchplay' they'd been doing at training, as opposed to praccy match try-outs. It will be interesting to see what might be unfolding in this regard next Friday.

    If it’s on Fox will it also be on Kayo?

    Do you have inside word that it's on Fox/KAYO?

    At the moment they've programmed GWS V WC from last year on from 4-6pm on the 24th of Feb, and the media have previously announced that only the second round of practice matches (March 2-4) will be televised.

    I'm thinking or hoping it will be a live stream from the club if it's not on Fox.

    I will be at the 40th birthday celebrations for one of my sons ... in a pub, so with a few artful steps, just maybe I can take in the footy on 504 or at least the entire last quarter. Not going to miss attending the upcoming match against the Toiges, that's for sure.

    My Foxtel guide doesn't reflect that. Of course, they have been known to be wrong when looking a week ahead. Did you see it somewhere?

    I have it confirmed via people at Fox Sports that it will be on.

    My guide says same but the poster above seems adamant it’s on Fox.

    If LRFE says it's on Foxtel, take it for granted.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      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?
