How come when you play on a Monday there seems to be no timeframe for naming a team? Given the games' tomorrow I thought they would have had to announce a team by late yesterday... 

It’s [censored]. It’s probably just so that Pathetic lames TV station 7 can name it at the news.

    Clarrie clearly had other things on his mind. I asked him how are you and he said, “starving!” 😁

    Speaking of a painful end, I just sat in a puddle on a bench. Not drops of water… an actual puddle. And now my ‘end’ is threatening to join the Let’s Deprive Her Of All Feeling list. The things one does for one’s Club 😑

    How’s the hair holding up WCW?

    Bloody hell it looks cold! I’m at the airport about to fly down, I haven’t packed for the conditions…..

    Here’s how cold it is… I’m 100% a winter person and I’m soooo cold right now. And that’s with the appropriate clothing. So, in short… you’re screwed.

    No it’s to give Goody enough time to reinforce his house with 6in steel cladding in readiness for when he names McAdam and Petty. 🙄

    Meanwhile it's the first sunny day in Sydney in almost two weeks!  Perfect weather to *checks notes* ...be stuck inside packing to move houses

    Is moving house your hobby or something? You seem to do it every five minutes. Here’s an idea: next time you move house… move back to Melbz. 😃

    Disco was in a particularly good mood today. Very buoyant and happy. Idk if that has anything to do with selections though, but it was nice to see.

    Ah, I was just in the area, had I known training was on I would have dropped past.

    I suspect it's in JvR, Howes, Billings and Laurie.

    Out: Hunter, Tomlinson, McAdam and Woewodin (may have missed him in the training video).

    I'd be surprised if those doing the captains run are burning down to Casey fields for a game.

    Hunter is a definite out, maybe JvR for Hunter only.

    Au contraire, given I'm not the organising type!  But the rental market in Syd was so bad I only got a 6 mth lease.  Now I'm moving to a forever* home which should put a stop to all this silliness!  Still going to be near the SCG though 😁  it's just not the weekend if you don't hear the stadium sirens!

    *at least until I eventually move back to Melb

    Think I spotted Howes, Turner, Billings, Laurie and K Brown in those videos. Maybe k Brown as carry over emergency?

    Special thanks to @WalkingCivilWar

    Thanks once again WCW for your generous offerings.

    I wonder if that means that none of these will be at Casey with multiple hold over emergencies?  And, of course, yet another bloody bye next week so some poor buggers will not get a gig for 3 weeks or so.  Not good enough this as a "support" or "development" competition.

    WCW - can you recall seeing any of last week's team (other than Hunter) NOT there?

    Did any of the apparent extras seem to dash for a car to head to Casey?

    While I was taking this pic Salo said, “There she is.” Idk if that’s a good or a bad thing 😅

    Maysi looks like he’s holding his left hammy😧.

    Then again half our team looks to have an injury looking gait. Maybe it’s to confuse the opposition.

    I reckon It will be:

    Out: Hunter, McAdam, Tomlinson

    In: Laurie, JvR, Howes

    Tomlinson had a shocker last week and the Pies have a very short forward line so I think Howes will come in for him.

    Anyone but Laurie, please. Has shown nothing and doesn't look at all like a player who would rise on a stage like King's Birthday.

    Have similar feelings about Howes, had some shaky moments in bigger games while he was in the team.

    Unfortunately we don't really have any other options. Billings is just as bad as Laurie.

    Thanks WCW greatly appreciated, it looks very wet and cold at Gosh’s great effort on your part.😁

    Give Howes a chance he's only a kid and he's also done some good things he just needs experience.

    The smile's hard to read, W. I'd err on the side of caution, nice boy that Christian is, notwithstanding.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
