    Did anyone watch the Casey game ? Seriously only Sestan and Moniz-Wakefield would be capable.  Both deserve a game.

    in.  JVR.  Langdon.  Sestan. AMW.  Tomlinson.

    Agreed. Already playing a lot of kids; let’s not throw them all in.

    Half the Casey regulars didn’t play cos they were carry over emergencies for the AFL game

    Those that did play at Casey are, presumably, further back in the pack 

    OUT: Lever, Billings, Sparrow, B Brown
    IN: JVR, Langdon, Fullarton, Tholstrup

    Petty to return to defence where he’s clearly more comfortable

    I somehow doubt that the above will happen tho

    I think we need to hedge our bets a little. It’s possible 2021 is all we’re gonna get, or it’s possible we might still be in the flag race. It’s hard to say at 6-4 in May.

    So I would be in favor of cutting clear deadwood like Billings who won’t get a kick in September anyway, for someone like Laurie or Sestan. 
    Woey Jr was one I thought might not be up to it but he’s starting to flourish with opportunity. 
    Ben Brown is another who needs to go, but the cupboard is a little bare. Absolutely not to Jeffo coming in lol, I have faith in him but it’s too soon.

    Tomlinson one and done for Lever. 

    Otherwise I think Goody has to roll with the same guys and hope we can peak later in the year or pinch one in an open year.

    Out: Lever, BBB, Billings. (Howes sub)

    In: JVR, Fullarton, Langdon

    FB: McVee May McDonald
    HB: Rivers Petty Woey
    C: Langdon Oliver Windsor 
    HF: Chandler  Fullarton Viney 
    FF: McAdam JVR Pickett 
    Foll: Gawn ANB  Salem
    Int: Bowey , Sparrow, Fritsch, Petracca
    S: Howes

    Probably have to give Petty the chance down back, he at least had a go in the ruck.

    Which means Fullarton I guess??

    Seen enough of BBB, he’s on a hiding to nothing but gave nothing. Seen more than enough of Billings.

    Time to reward Woey’s consistent effort with a full game, could be half back for Howes, could be wing with Langdon forward more.

    Wouldn't be surprised if we also see Tholstrup back in the side either. Maybe even a Sestan debut.

    Laurie? 🤣 he's genuinely a worse version of Billings.

    Probably only two things for sure.

    Lever misses due to concussion.

    At least one of Brown and Petty is dropped/moved out of the forward line (they combined for 1.2 from 8 disposals and 3 marks. That's not good enough for one of them on their own, let alone both of them).

    Presumably JVR replaces the dropped/moved key forward. Tomlinson or Petty for Lever you'd think.

    We don’t know that for sure. He’s barely had an extended opportunity. At worst he’s rubbish, like Billings is anyway, and at best he might find himself like Taj has done.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • 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?

      The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
