Surely Windsor won’t be ready. Rivers back and then Laurie into side and pup a sub. First time I’ve seen that Casey side on paper. Worry about our midfielder depth and therefore it makes sense for Culley to be the SSP

Windsor and Chandler doubtful, what has Lindsay done to deserve round 1 call up? I'm thinking they will go tall to stretch Gws Defence, Hence Jeffo to play, Culley to also play,plus one other!

Culley isn’t on the list yet PF and it may be Henderson lining up in a forward pocket….


Am I the only one amused seeing 'C: Sharp'? If he consistently plays on the wing that must offer a nickname. Piano?

It does look like that wing position is one we will have to develop over the season, giving a few players regular rotations through and seeing what works.

I would have Jefferson in the firsts, probably at the expense of Billings who I just feel burned by - I would need to have evidence of a turnaround before I included him.

"C sharp" is a bugger of a key to play in.  I hope the match committee know what they are doing.

So our half forward line includes a Fritta and Turner. Augurs well.

I do not want JvR rucking.

Hence AJ, Campbell, Fullerton,Verrall, Sestan .... anyone to be in the 23.

I’m still thinking 2 talls, but we’ll know more about the practice games.

Im also worried Rivers will have to play back due to needs with McVee out. I’m just not sure we can trust Windsor, Salem, Bowey and Howes as a defensive group. But let’s wait and see if Caleb is even fit and how they go in preseason.

Wings are also a huge watch. Henderson could come in to the team and slide Sharp to Lindsay’s wing if the kid isn’t ready.

I think Johnson has to play as we may well need 3 talks in attack plus some non JVR back up for Max. Langdon starts on the wing but gets to rotate through the middle as Sparrow can cover. Spargo plays if he’s properly fit which must be questionable. I’m putting Henderson on the bench as I suspect he’s ready to roll. I’d much prefer McVee over Howes atm and I have concerns over Salems ability to play a whole season. Langford appears the perfect Petracca rotation and I’ve got Laurie as sub as he needs to be rewarded for a strong preseason.

KP suspended again is a shame.

Really needs to address this element if he's going to emerge to star status.

I think Disco is underrated.

He's the tallest player we have in this fwd line up.

I wish the club had pick up a very big bodied player with experience as I feel our fwd line lacks firepower still.

Some luck turning our way, Tom Green out for 4 - 6 weeks

That’s not a good injury to get at a young age.

Their midfield is quite thin without Green (and Peatling's departure)

They will need to hope Cogs and Kelly's bodies can hold up

Love Green as a player but it’s a huge win for us 

They’ll need Cogs and Kelly to play like they did five years ago or guys like Callaghan to make the step up to match us in there

Of course they can still beat us on the outside, but we’ll take what we can get!

You’re short a 7th defender there, unless Riv is really only doing cameos on ball or Bowey is playing back from the forward flank.

I don’t think Spargo will be rushed this year, they painfully learned that lesson last year.

There’s a bunch of players who are playing to win their spot in the preseason games - AJ, Jeffo, the new kids, the new men (Sharp and Henderson).

Not having a go at you in particular but I think fans have to come to grips with the idea that Billings is playing to not lose his spot on the wing. If he’s adequate he’ll get the job in round 1.

  • 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.

    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?
