OUT: Tomlinson, Petty (inj), Chander (sub)
IN: Salem, Jefferson, Brown

Salem and bowey the obvious candidates to come in. Would love for Tholstrup and AMW to retain their spots. Await the vfl game but suspect only Bill and Jefferson the other possible candidates.

 

Who cares !

AMW did great imo. Also like the tall backline option for WCE with Oscar, Darling and G-Train 2.0. 

Jeffo for Petty if his ankle doesn't get up. Salem in, but not totally sure who for


Jefferson has to play. Time to give him a taste of the big time and build for a big year next season.

Tholstrup and AMW must play for the remainder of the season. Both showed plenty tonight and deserve time in the seniors to develop.

Kynan probably deserves a full game but will likely be dropped for either Bowey or Salem pending their respective niggles. 

Demonland will be on full Jefferson watch tomorrow.

All of us should. There is a season left for us to make something of.

 

All eyes on Casey. 3 goals + or 8+ marks and Jefferson surely comes in. 

Petty let us down big time in front of goals, and whilst he's finding a small amount of form, he's still not playing well.

No interest in seeing Bowey back without a run at Casey. He has been fumbly, poor and somehow undroppable.

Out: Petty, Tomlinson (unlucky but not sure we need 4 talls for West Coast)

In: Jefferson, Salem if fit or Brown for a full game and McAdam to sub.

Who the [censored] cares about next week beat west coast so what ??    The year was blown tonight by a disgraceful last quarter  OLIVER  VINEY try guts out only to be let down by petty and co.


Salem will come in probably for Tomlinson although the defence were good tonight, 
Brown likely to go back to the VFL

Petty rolled an ankle should get up

Absolutely. 8-7 means we are still in the season. 8 games left and need to win 5 of them.  It's not over.

Surely they can’t drop Moniz or Tholstrup after tonight’s efforts.

Therefore : Salem in for Woewodin.

K. Brown in the 22

Windsor sub

Would really like to see Sestan and Fullarton ( for Chandler and either one of Turner or Petty ) but it looks like their cards have been stamped, at least for this year.

Surely Monners and Brown to stay in. 
Great opportunity to play Jeffo. 
And FFS don’t start Brown as sub

It’s a combination of being 8-7 and how we played tonight.

If this is what we bring for the rest of the year, rather than the football of our previous 6 weeks, then our season is alive. The fixture is challenging but 6 games in Melbourne, 5 at the G, and some 8-point games where wins can help bring challengers for the top 8 down (Essendon, GWS, Port, GC).

Don't know if there is but we played well tonight.

The only change I would make to the side is Petty out injured / managed for Fullerton.

We need to first have a look at Fullerton and see what he looks like in the team, we cannot continue to use JVR in the ruck. Starting to really hit his straps up forward and we need to find a way to keep him down there. Like the effort and intensity I saw from the kids need to keep playing them. Kynan needs a proper run, not two cameos. West Coast is as good a team as any to give him that proper opportunity.

Jefferson next cab off the rank. 

I’d like to see Pup have a full game tagging Reid. Shoulder to shoulder with him. He has the speed and mongrel to take him out of the game.

Add salo and bowey to that team and it looks a lot stronger.

I can't see amw or kolt getting dropped. 

Perhaps woey and pup come out and amw is the sub.

Being realistic we cannot be considered serious contenders this year. (Sydney is and perhaps any one that ends up top four at season end).  
Strange game this. I felt gutted by last week’s win, but gained some hope with this week’s loss. 
Hoping that we can somehow make the finals. Not caring or thinking about higher draft picks if we finish lower. 
Just want to see us play finals. You got to be in it to win it (but refer to my first sentence). It is a long off season. GO DEES!

Sorry, did you not see Reid fending off Petracca and Oliver? Brown has some courage and tackled Larkey but this would be a bloodbath. He's tiny.

Woey and Pup out, Salem and Bowey in.

We gunna win.

 

Tommo needs to stay in with an Eagles fwd line of Darling, Allen and Waterman. Lever can't play on either of them, more likely to play on Cripps

For mine, an elimination final and a shot as underdogs to get the finals monkey off our back is worth playing for, and a finals win from here is a fantastic result all things considered.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
