You would not be happy if you missed the squad.

Just released... so lets play which four drop out and who is the sub

Jeffo definitely out and next TMac

Billings for sub? or more likely Lindsay?

Think Billings is in

Thanks to all for the contributions to this thread - it's been a great read in the lead up. 

I'm looking forward to the game and cheering on the boys at the 'G.

Carn The Demons!

    Of the Interchange, you would imagine Billings and Sharp have done enough. Then it's a toss up between Jefferson and Johnson (surprise surprise) and a fourth spot to ... god knows.

    im thinking 

    1 - either jeffo or Johnson - Prefer Jeffo

    2 - Langford and Sharp - In

    3 - Billings and Lindsay - In (Billings 2 be sub)

    4- Henderson and TMac  - No

    Of the extended bench I'm taking Langford for sure. It'll be either Jibba or Lindsay. Maybe AJ. Longest odds with Henderson and Jefferson.

    Interesting to see Hendo in the squad ahead of a few

    I wonder if they’re really considering him with the weather and Koz being out?

    Might be a smoky as sub

    I reckon a Smokey to start. With the rain it makes sense to me. Obviously if kozzie was playing then I wouldn’t care as much with him playing but we seriously need another small in this game

    Heard Jeffo will debut, based on preseason games I didn’t have him in the calculation 

    Heard same Goody and match commitee consider him long term player and need to get games into him! Chandler STILL gets selected on What?? DISCO also veeery lucky!

    My thoughts, we could go small.

    Langford, Lindsay, Billings and Sharp as interchange. 

    Sub Tmac (knows system and gives flexibility)

    TMac is not your typical sub unless you are thinking injury sub.

    I think they're desperate for someone to back up Max but you could be right that in view of the weather they might go small.

    This game looks increasingly tough to win

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
