    Looked like he was out cold. No chance he plays next week. Looked very very sad post game.

    This, unless Petty is ready as well. Then it's either Smith or Tomlinson depending on where we want to play him.

    Has it ever snowed at the MCG?

    Seriously the only way we win is accuracy on our part and inaccuracy on theirs

    Be interesting to see Grundy next week.  I bet the filth barrackers will be disgusting towards him even though they [censored] him off.

    He certainly won’t get cheered like Jackson did.

    He looked like it, will be missed next week 

    I think we all need the 10 day break. Players and supporters alike.

    Out. Bowey (concussed), Harmes (suspended/omitted), Smith (omitted)

    Ins. Hibberd, Oliver, Ben Brown

    I don't care what Benny is doing wrong in the eyes of the coaches, he's still good for a cheap free and mark each week. That's 2 goals we could use. Didn't mind the Smith experiment but it didn't work. Stick to what you know. I'll also cop TMac back if he's fit.

    Harmes will cop a week for his bump but will be dropped either way. When he cops his week I expect it to be one of the shorter threads in Demonland's history. Great clubman and servant, but he's not up to it at the minute. 

    Not sure who I'd play as sub in my scenario. Maybe Chandler? I prefer the sub to have a bit of X-Factor rather than the 23rd man which is generally another vanilla midfielder.

    I will soon have my break by sitting on a plane for 14 hours..

    Still deciding if I am going to stay up to watch the KB game (it'll be at 11 pm first bounce for me).

    I’ll be watching Casey this weekend. I suggest BB lovers might want to as well. There’s no universe where he gets a game at the level.

    Unfortunately Bowey will miss a week (or two) with concussion.  Maybe  Hibbo (or Disco if Hibbo doesn't get up).

    Harmes will be offered 2-3 for what a couple of Cats were not even cited.  Oliver back according to coach.

    Otherwise probably no change.  Goody said that Smith provided a point of difference so will probably stay (unless BB has a pearler at Casey).

    Raised this on the game thread but if Viney’s opponent’s head made contact with the ground in the tackle then he’ll get an automatic 1 week at the MRP I’d imagine.

    I dunno, he has exposed form at AFL level over many years now. He's not a world beater but if he struggles for impact in subpar conditions at Casey then I don't think that should put a line through his name. Joel Smith was promoted off less. 

    My mail is that BBB will come in after the bye.  Apparently he is doing a mini pre-season again like in 2021 and they want him firing for end of year

    Can't say I have much in the way of proven footy connections so we'll see 😂  as an optimist this mail certainly fits my confirmation bias

    Then where’d the information come from? Your cousins second best friends wife?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
