I get a feeling Clarry is going to play a big one this Saturday. Can see an incline in his energy/fitness, but just as importantly, I think that gammy hand of his is healing. At the very least, I believe he’s put the worst behind him for a long time. 
 

 

I hope he’s even better on Sunday

We can’t be risking Gawn now if he isn’t 95%, I’d rather play without him this week if it means he is better for it for the remainder of the season. If it hypothetically costs us finals so be it, it’s about more than this year anyway and if one game is the difference we probably weren’t going to be a contender anyway.

BUT the medical team is handling our list well. When did we have a list with so few injuries?

 

Gawny will play..

Name Injury Expected Return
Max Gawn Ankle Test
Lachie Hunter Calf  1 week

I liked how Goody finished the presser.

“ Fremantle haven’t see our best and it’s time to put that on show”

It really annoys me that we've let this nothing club have the wood over us. 

It's time to put an end to it.

I’m putting it down to the AFL making us play them around ‘peak loading period’

They’ve won the last 2, but wouldn’t necessarily say they’ve got the wood over us. They haven’t beaten us at Optus Stadium yet…

They beat us last year when they were hot garbage. I am sick of them stealing our players and then beating us.

Lets beat Freo and show them all the WA talent they passed on in the draft:

  • Kozzi (they has 3 chances to draft him)
  • Rivers
  • Tholstrop
  • JVR
  • McVee

These guys have been among our best in the last few weeks and are the best WA youth running around.  Did I miss any?

I comfort myself in the knowledge that we got Jeff White from them, Langdon, and they effectively gave us Steven May for nothing given what Hogan gave them. And I totally agree, it's high time we gave them a belting.

Or a barbed wire suppository 

I would be happy with an unchanged lineup if Gawn is still underdone

Petty/van Rooyen will be a good matchup vs Jackson

I kinda wanna see us name Max on the extended bench tonight.

Except that you'd want to sub him on 10 minutes into the first quarter.

Who do we think would take being sub better; Gawn or May?

Send both of them an email and check the laptop 3 days later.

One thing to consider is that Darcy and Jackson are a big step up from that Essendrug rat tail. 

I think Draper and Darcy are quite close, Darcy useless outside stoppage — Jackson slightly better around ground but tbh I think it’s all about combatting them as separate entities! Like Binman said, Petty for Darcy & JVR for Jackson..

 

but.. big MAX will be there.. I can feel it 😛

  • NON-MFC: Round 05

    Gather Round is here, kicking off with a Thursday night blockbuster as Adelaide faces Geelong. The Crows will be out for redemption after a controversial loss last week. Saturday starts with the Magpies taking on the Swans. Collingwood will be eager to cement their spot in the top eight, while Sydney is hot on their heels. In the Barossa Valley, two rising sides go head-to-head in a fascinating battle to prove they're the real deal. Later, Carlton and West Coast face off at Adelaide Oval, both desperate to notch their first win of the season. The action then shifts to Norwood, where the undefeated Lions will aim to keep their streak alive against the Bulldogs. Sunday’s games begin in the Barossa with Richmond up against Fremantle. In Norwood, the Saints will be looking to take a scalp when they come up against the Giants. The round concludes with a fiery rematch of last year's semi-final, as the Hawks seek revenge for their narrow loss to Port Adelaide. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • 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?
