i can't believe oliver would be rested with a bye coming up - we need our best players out there, regardless that their form isn't necessarily the best they can be; it's still better than the majority of other mids we have

my best guess is we'll go smaller in defence to try and limit their ground level game...

B: McVee - May - Rivers
HB: Bowey - McDonald - Salem
C: Langdon - Pickett - Windsor
HF: Petracca - Petty - Neal-Bullen
F: van Rooyen - Fritsch - Chandler

I/c: Laurie - Howes - Sparrow - Turner
Sub: Billings
Carryover emergency: Pup Brown

    i think they would've announced it already if it was happening

    I'm not sure, very different selection week. They basically didn't even name a casey team, just a squad. I'm speculating a potential debut as K Brown, Laurie and Howes were all actually named on the ground for Casey initially, instead of the bench like we're used to for tentative picks. Selection thought has gone into K Brown, Laurie and Howes and I don't think we'd mess with that unless they were playing at AFL level. Still wild speculation though.

    Kynan Brown to debut??

    Would love that if he has the kms in his legs. Has better goal sense than Chandler IMO.

    Can't see them making this move given The Age article.

    Which article? Also, generally we play one or two of our emergencies in the VFL, so its unusual to have named casey players on the ground pulled out just to be an emergency.

    We have at least Hunter, McAdam, Woewodin and Tommo not playing this week (Hunter Inj., rest playing for casey today), so 3 outs from our 22 and a sub needed.

    From the three named on-field Casey players not on the final lineup (K Brown, Howes and Laurie), I think they will all play (or sub), as I don't see us withdrawing a Casey player that wasn't on the IC unless they were playing.

    I think of the two players originally named on the bench but not playing (Turner and Billings), one will play and one will be an EMG who doesn't play VFL this week. Most likely Turner will play, and Petty may even move down back.

    Generally clubs don't play a debutant as a sub, and I don't think we will. Howes also played great in the VFL so I think he will play. Sub likely Billings or Laurie.

    Windsor playing for Casey too. 

    Out 

    Hunter, McAdam, Tomlinson, wowoedin, Windsor  

    In 

    JVR, billings, Laurie, howes, K brown?

    I'm guessing either 

    Howes sub = Petty back 

    Or 

    Laurie/billings sub = Petty forward

    Just read the article, seems Clarry will definitely play and that Goody is still too stubborn about Petty forward. I also think we'll want to go a bit taller up forward so Turner will stay in and Roo for McAdam.

    Straight swaps Howes-Tommo and Roo-McAdam.

    Then we pick from K Brown, Billings and Laurie for Hunter and Woewodin. To be honest, I'm still leaning on a K Brown debut and Laurie sub, since they were both named on the ground at casey, but Billings could play.

    Hunter is great but keeps getting injured. Not very excited about Billings, McAdam and Schache. Billings and McAdam have shown glimpses but not enough to get that excited over. Schache just seems like a VFL player, not enough drive for AFL level.

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.

    • 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?
