A better alternative would be that Petterd is in and the club's taken Warnock over there for insurance.

Don't stress. When it is a sunday game Gameday always just puts in the first 4 players named on the bench and our bench was PJ Jones Whelan Warnock McLean HOlland Petterd.

So although Warnock has travelled (which is normal - we always take an emergency over), I don't think there is any reason to expect Petterd to be out.

We've had panic attacks before through people drawing conclusions from the Game Day live list. It should be avoided if at all possible. The same goes for the "Flash-throttled" AFL site generally.

I hope he plays, ND said last week that we rested him as a precuation rather than a necessity so let's just wait and see.

oh so this is not the first time this sorta stuff has happened

I think the GDL "method" is to shuffle the extended bench into the selected eighteen, trouble is, the list as loaded performs a truncation which leads innocent people to make spurious conclusions. This was last year. Obviously the original instructions, devised by some Big Pond techie with no footy foresight have not changed.

Petterd has had the misfortune of being last-named on the extended bench and so is ripe for the chop, Big Pond-style (never mind the quality and detail, look at all that colour and movement).

Yeah godees is right, i think it was the port game, and i had a look at the list and warnock wasnt there, but he played against port, so there is probably no need to worry.

Yeah GDL always, for sunday games list the first 4 on the bench from the squad you get on thursdays. It's quite annoying because this website I use to get live scores for my dreamteam takes direct feeds from GDL and according to that Pedro isn't playing. <_<

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
