    Thanks W

    Just a few points i would like to add pls...

    While he is probably best 22 we don't know how long Melk will be out, nor if he'll decide to continue by the time he does return.  Most likely he will but 11 months is a long time in footy.  Especially at this point in his career.

    So i would think McAdam replaces Melk there at least until he returns.  There is no McAdam regardless.  Is that not a done deal?

    Deakyn Smith delisted assuming that's the Smith you're referring for Casey in the BP.

    Hibberd & Dunstan retired.

    Moose has moved on.

    Grundy a maybe but highly unilkely i would have thought given the smoke.

    Jordon and Harmes need an asterisk also yes?

    That's the best 44 for the year the next installment won't have D.Smith, Hibberd, Dunstan and anybody else who leaves during trade week.

    Love to see Bowey move onto a wing, he has a good footy brain and is very good by foot.  No idea on his tank.

    I'd start Billings in the 2's regardless of how well he goes in the preseason. One of the Saints fans youtube things i watched said he got 50 possesions when they dropped him. He has the talent make him earn a spot.

    Surprised to see that Billings isn't rated higher than Chandler on here 

     

    My best 23

    B - Lever, May, McVee

    HB - Rivers, Tomlinson, Salem

    C - Brayshaw, Oliver, Langdon

    HF - Petracca, van Rooyen, McAdam

    F - Fritsch, Petty, Billings

    FOLL - Gawn, Viney, Pickett

    INT - Hunter, Sparrow, Neal-Bullen, Woewodin

    23rd - Chandler/Fullerton

    If we go with Petty and JVR as KPFs for MFC with Fritsch and McAdam in support then we're going to have a massive logjam of tall forwards at Casey assuming early season fitness: TMac, BBB, Smith, Schache, Fullarton, Jefferson, KFW - assuming Verrall leads the Casey ruck.

    I'd be playing at least one back.

    Put a line through TMac, BBB   

    Fullerton will be first in line for a call up if one of Gawn, Petty, van Rooyen go down

    Jefferson may play a different role due to the forward depth we have at both levels

    Verrall will be 2nd ruck to Fullerton imo

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
