Looks like McDonald in the whites jumper (B team) and Kynan Brown in the Blue (A team) at training.. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Oh for goodness sake...surely they're not even remotely considering dropping our best defender from last week.

Goes without saying..

Well Petty is coming back through the reserves and May will be in for Lever so I reckon McDonald stays in.

Interesting that Petty's confirmed VFL this week because he hasn't played for 4 weeks.

They've brought back senior players straight back into the side off way longer lay offs.

A soft drop?

Photos could be misleading. Laurie and Brown in both white and blue jumpers.

Petracca and Gawn also in white in one of the photos.

Could be. Could also be that this is his second concussion this season and they want to see how he pulls up, and given our season is over in terms of finals, there’s no point risking him.

It’s also possible that they are determined to keep Jeffo and JVR in the seniors for a few more weeks.

If Xerri doesn't drop him first.

I reckon a few ( thousand) on here are about to lose their Sheeeeeeit! over selection......Including ME!!

I’ve been guilty of assuming the jumper colours at training indicate selection. But I suspect this is the answer.

Today, we saw photos of the following:

Blue - Gawn, Langdon, Oliver, Turner, Fritsch, Trac, Laurie, Bowey, Brown, Windsor

White - Gawn, Trac, Rivers, Woewodin (albeit these four were white vests over blue jumpers), Campbell, Laurie, Mentha, Billings, TMac

So Laurie clearly in both blue and white.

All told, tells us little I would have thought.

howes petty and tc- emg

I like that they are persisting with jeffo and Kolt , but I would have like to see X get a rest, or maybe they will make him the sub

The coaches are clearly seeing something with Sharp that I'm not.

I'd much rather give Laurie a run.

Hoped for May. But surprise Sharp. Is back but he did play well for Casey

Sharp, really!

I'm glad we drafted Howes for the Casey team. I mean, [censored] the future, am I right?

I’m surprised Spargo wasn’t chosen ahead of Sharp.

Reckon they've stamped Bill's card.

Sharp was very good in the VFL last week, as was Billings and Spargs, all could be a like for like replacement.

Unlucky for Howes who played a blinder as well

Big midfield battle coming up, will be a good test

He got a 3 week rest.

Sharp will be sub

He is a good sub option

Very good changes overall

Glad Petty has to earn his spot and we are keeping youth in

I’ve seen more in Sharp than Laurie

I would not say Spargo was very good for Casey last week. 16 disposals for an experienced AFL player in a lower league is, at best good. I’d say he was ok.

Like a few others, I’m slightly mystified by Sharp’s selection.

I would have brought back Howes for Sparrow, played him on the wing, done a few other ‘swings and roundabouts’ and trialed Langford as an inside mid / forward (which is where I think his future lies).

………. but that’s just me, and others are far better placed than me, to make such a call!

Out of interest, which defender would you drop for Howes?

He is being groomed as a backman. When he’s played for the demons several times he hasn’t shown much. So a good game at Casey might not be enough to work his way in
