Ports young guns are moving the ball fast and taking difficult marks with aplomb we will need to curb their influence early in the game. It is going to be a tough ask but we have the talent to do it our Ins will be super critical. As Demonstone mentioned earlier it is Sad that two of our top SA youngsters miss out but still have Chandler, Alex and Grundy playing. go Dees.!!!

    This weekend marks the next phase of the season. If we can go 6-2 over the next 8 weeks we remain on track for top 2.

    4-4 and we are borderline 4th or 5th

    Reckon any of Brown, TMac or Schache in for Petty. Not sure on current fitness/form for each with no seconds game.

    Jordon for Sparrow

    Smith for emergency for flexibility.

    interesting non committal comment on Salem

    Possibly in the 23 which would be a big surprise

    Given Goody's media conference just now, you would have to say that BBB is the one in for Petty.

    He spoke about the body of evidence in the VFL and Tom didn't play the last game and then there was a bye.

    Also he mentioned BBB, Tom and Melk as possibles for Petty, but didn't mention Smith. Could be gamesmanship of course, but if it's not, then it looks like BBB is in.

    Pretty sure they will want to see Salem play a full game at the minimum for Casey, before being considered.

    I'm confused.  Listening to Goody & other coaches it appears most teams  have been building in the last month or so.

    Yet apparently there's a housing shortage!

    Marshall is a definite out.

    Dixon I will presume as such considering it was supposedly a minor strain to his quad at training last week.

    Quad strains are nefarious injuries and unless 100 % he would not be risked

    I think they had to rebuild a few after they all got Trained down in the pre-season

    Could start as a sub then play more minutes the following day with Casey.

    I remain convinced that we are a better team with BBB in, even though he can go missing, or drop lots of marks he gets to. 

    At this current time, I prefer Jordon over Sparrow.

    OUT: Petty, Sparrow

    IN: BBB, Jordon

    Harmes to sub

    I like the sound of J Smith as an option, but reckon he would lack genuine game fitness. If something required him to be subbed on in the 2nd quarter, he would be out of steam in the last quarter.

    I'll preface this by saying I have no idea what the extent of his quad strain was but I reckon he might have just been rested so he's cherry ripe for this match. If we were playing them last week (or another Top 6 team) and they weren't playing North he wouldn't have been rested.

    He's 99.99993% playing this week.

    I wouldn't think Smith would be considered until we proves his fitness over a couple more weeks.  He has played 2 games in what 10-12 months? 

    And we need a leading fwd to come in anyway

    Pecking order would be Brown, T Mac, Schache, Melksham, Smith

    Well Melksham  in  wouldn't be the worst option.

    He might have lost a yard of pace but he's got a lot of 'rat cunning '

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
