PREGAME: Rd 23 vs Gold Coast

[Demonland 73,465]

The Demons head back on the road again for the final time this season as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

[Nascent 9,320]

In before picket fence suggests Jefferson.

[Jaded No More 68,975]

For anyone watching at home, which going by the crowd was most of you, was JVR a tactical or injury sub?

Tactical it appeared

[croydick 142]

oh well, we wouldnt have done much in finals, now theres no excuse not to play jeffo

[adonski 12,903]

Jefferson in for Tomlinson, Petty back

Would be fun to see Kynan Brown get a full run too

[Adzman 2,154]

In: The tank for a better draft position 

Out: Season 2024

Really hoping that Clarry and Viney put on ice. Jack was enormous early but faded. I suspect both require surgery so do it now. I'd add Max to that list but not happening.

Another who was perhaps unwell, or was suffering the effects of? He certainly looked pretty rough on the bench.

Yes that’s very possible. He looked stuffed trying to get to the bench.

CLARRY DEFINATELY UNDER THE WEATHER IS MY INTEL, Plus a few others as well!

Lose to GC and beat Collingwood and you've got a deal.

[dees189227 12,453]

From what Goodwin said last night after the game, it sounds like he isn't going to put away any players. 

Against Collingwood I'd put any of our top players away cause who knows what they'll do

[BDA 23,015]

Giving games to the youngsters has to be the go. It's what end of season dead rubbers are for.

[forever demons 2,315]

I just hope i can get back from breakdancing training in time for the game

[COOLX 209]

TWO more losses to go .

[The end is nigh 447]

We are already playing plenty of youngsters. Throwing them to the wolves without the protection of senior players is not the way to end the season. Hoping for no more injuries so those still standing can hit preseason with intent. 
that said, if moniz is good to go, would like his speed back in. Good to see Howes and hore back in, but hoping MC picks whatever side matches up best to win rather than experiment.
Or throw fritta to halfback to see which media needs to lay the boots in, for funsies.

Jeffersen for Melks

Remarkable result given that, which is what many of us suspected.

Petty played his best game for the season

Yeah Melk could be on the chopping block for team selections this week. 

3 disposals against the doggies previous week and was pretty ineffective as a sub.

Tomlinson - out and keep going....

JVR needs to GRAB THE FOOTY

We need to bring in Ray Biffin and Rod Grinter to play on Moore and Maynard.

Roy did actually take a one-grab mark close to the boundary line.
