PREGAME: Rd 17 vs St. Kilda

Featured Replies

 

Sounds like Fritsch will be out and no certainty to get Oliver back.

JVR for Smith. A fresh face (Woey, Howes, whoever) for any of the underperforming players (ANB, Harmes, Chandler).

 

Out Goodwin

In Batfink.

JVR in for fritta. Anymore changes might be too much for the selection comitee.

ANB, Smith and even Kozzy may need a spell at Casey tbf.

Nope too many changes for the selectors. Wont happen.

Could not give a Tosca,season done, time to shake the joint up and play JVR and blood, Woey, Jefferson, and any others that have played well at Casey!

 

Season defining game next week. Don’t care who is injured, the ins or the outs.  We need to win this one - no excuses 

Might be time for one of Gawn or Grundy to have a spell. Neither are playing well. 


Why suggest any changes? Goodwin will back the team in as they ‘did a lot of good things’ this week. No point in rewarding anyone who may be in any form in the 2s, that would make sense. Got to stick with the same group. Goodwin would probably pick fritsch this week if allowed 

JVR for Smith

Unfortunately there's no stand out small forward at Casey for Chandler. AMW had a good game today but has no solid bank of form.

Melksham did little in conditions that should have suited him

Bowey forward and Howes in down back if you want to be adventurous

Forgot Fritsch' injury... Smith or Schache (not sure)

 

Edited by Diamond_Jim

Woey jnr to make his debut please….

jordon back in please….

Maybe even Dunstan to play against the saints …. random I know …. 

fritsch an obvious out and chandler and J smith back to the Casey demons to help them in their quest to get back into the top 4…..

 

Any chance Tomlinson can get a game before he tells Goodwin to GAGF & play every week for another team next year?

He was on the market at the end of 2022 and no takers

absolutely agree. we can’t carry both and give up run. with JVR and Brown and Petty back we are far too tall

I think we are going to have to get around 85 Inside 50s to win this one…

No way Smith goes out.

Chandler or Pickett out before him.

JVR for Fritsch and we are still a medium/tall forward short so ideally need someone else. 

Dare I say Tomlinson in to the backline and Petty forward.

Why not? He’s not good enough.

Thought today would’ve been the day to try that considering the weather…but I guess I have hindsight on my side??? 🤷🏼‍♂️

His forward pressure is excellent, he adds much needed structure as a forward target and can bob up for goals.

Either way we are screwed without Fritsch.

It was disgusting that he was dropped after a career best performance on KBDay against this year’s (more than likely)premiers 

It was a complete lack of selection in integrity and the players must be confused on what the base level of performance is to maintain their spot in the side.

Maybe. Or does the ratio of goals/i50 continue to decline the higher the number of i50s?

You know how like in video games, if you’re way out in front (racing game, Streetfighter whatever) the algorithm makes sure your competitors can catch up…

Ok.. so change is need.

Out- Grundy, ANB, Kosi, Harmes & Fritta

In- JVR, Tomlinson, Woey, Laurie & Oliver. 
Bowey or Salem to spend midfield minutes, Laurie needed forward as he can actually hit a target. Petty forward with JVR and Brown.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
