In fairness the average fan wouldn't even know the VFL practice game is on.... Dland fans are a bit different of course

The VFL comp is taken for granted so it's lucky that a pre season hit out gets any coverage.

4-5 weeks until the next match for most of these guys

I'm guessing he will play 2-3 quarters and then will have a quarter in the seniors maybe?

Tholstrup, Jefferson, McDonald weren’t part of the main group of the captains run so clearly the emergencies for tonight, they might pull them out early to cover.

It is. I would imagine that any players named on the extended bench that weren't in the 23 I listed as training with the main group in the Captain's Run like Kolt, TMac and Jefferson will probably play a half or 3/4 in the 2s and then play a 1/2 or 1 quarter in the 1s.

Funny, potential old man eyes at play and point granted, but that's not how i read team selection.

70k members is a fair audience 


Errol Flynn, Tyrone Power and Roan Steele all ‘early’ matinee idols.  RS continues his fine run of ‘classic goals’ should have the turnstiles clicking over. Get him in mid-season draft!

Our club mentioned that we could follow the game via there site. Cannot find anything there.

Open the gates next time for the few who are interested!

Teams in the Practice Match can name and play an extended Bench. We named 3 players (Kolt, TMac & Jefferson) that didn't train with the main group of 23 yesterday. The photo I posted above from Carlton Reserves Twitter shows TMac and the Dees photo from Twitter showed Colt. An educated guess is that these 3 who were named on the extended bench for the Dees will play 1/2 or 3/4 with Casey and then 1/2 or 1/4 with the Dees.

I am really confused: the photo of the 'huddle' shows McDonald who, I thought, was named for tonight. I am also confused that there are 2 games this evening and on a hot day like today, how can players be expected to show up for 2 games? It's kind of surreal...

See my posts above. They will either not play at all for the 1s or play 1/2 and 1/2 or 3/4 and 1/4.

Dees pile on a few more.

 

Have you raised concerns with the club re our social media Andy? 

I assume you would have some contacts there that would pass on supporter feedback.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
