WERRIDEE

Gawn Oliver Petracca May Neitz

So out of the Casey players the players that played last week were Sheridan, Grass, Baldi, Cross, Freeman and Valentine So last weeks team was B: D.Smith, D.Turner, Buntine HB: Hibberd, Tomlinson, Freeman C: Howes, Jordon, Burgoyne HF: Sestan, van Rooyen, K.Turner F: Moniz-Wakefield, Schache, Jefferson FOLL: Verrall, Munro, Goonan IC: Farris-White, Steele, Grey, Sheridan, Grass, Baldi, Cross, Valentine I think Valentine kicked a goal against Richmond not Schache so Schache had 4, van Rooyen 2 and singles to Valentine, Grey, Jefferson and Verrall.

If Fritsch is out I'd bring in Chandler from the sub and make McVee the sub presuming Disco plays.

I'd play Disco Turner he can play tall and small. I'd have him ahead of the unlucky McVee.

Good news for Melbourne Demons defender Christian Salem, key pair Bayley Fritsch and Jack Viney still in R1 doubt (afl.com.au)

Did anyone see it? @picket fence maybe?

highlights sorry

Schache 5 van Rooyen 2 and singles to Verrall, Jefferson and Grey.

The replay shows Schache kicking 5, van Rooyen 2 and singles to Verrall, Jefferson and Grey.

How did the rest of the Melbourne list go? The bloke on the video said Schache kicked 5.

If they are going to use Ugle-Hagan, Naughton, Darcy and Lobb in the forward line then Disco has to come in for the unlucky McVee. My round 1 side B: Lever, May, Bowey HB: Brayshaw, Petty, Rivers C: Hunter, Oliver, Langdon HF: Petracca, McDonald, Neal-Bullen F: Fritsch, Brown, Spargo FOLL: Gawn, Viney, Pickett IC: D.Turner, Grundy, Harmes, Sparow SUB: Chandler EMERG: McVee, van Rooyen, Woewodin

Another great performance by the Dees may it continue. What a champion Gawn is we will be unstoppable with him and Grundy. Hunter continuing on his good form and is was really impressed with Nibbler as well. Hard to see us change the team too much obviously Fritsch and Viney come back if fit. Can't wait to play the dogs. Team against the dogs: B: Lever, May, Bowey HB: Brayshaw, Petty, Rivers C: Hunter, Oliver, Langdon HF: Petracca, McDonald, Neal-Bullen F: Fritsch, Brown, Spargo FOLL: Gawn, Viney, Pickett IC: McVee, Grundy, Harmes, Sparrow SUB: Chandler EMERG: van Rooyen, Woewodin, Laurie

He played well in the reserves game in the guts.

I can't believe you mentioned Tomlinson woeful performance today.

If Lever is out then I would like to see Disco. Plays more like Lever than Hibberd does.

Really impressed with the seniors today didn't have a bad player on the ground. Really impressed with McVee more than happy to see him take Hibberd's spot. Enough has been said about Hunter great pick up and Bowey back to his best. The reserves were destroyed by one player and he was in a Demons jumper that was my new SPUD alert in Tomlinson. Got a bath by Camanti and Sharman. Slow as treacle. The sooner we delist him the better not even VFL standard. As for St.Kilda they are a real worry, bottom 4 maybe bottom 6 at best for them. King and Membrey out didn't help but apart from Steele who gives his all and they look like they have a good find in Philipou and in the reserves Camaniti, Sharman and Van Es showed they should be in the senior side. The rest of the players are pathetic a long year coming up for the Saints. Looking to next week against Richmond we should only have 2 players unavailable in Salem and Dunstan. So here is my best 45 for next week. B: Lever, May, Bowey HB: Brayshaw, Petty, Rivers C: Langdon, Oliver, Hunter HF: Petracca, McDonald, Neal-Bullen F: Fritsch, Brown, Spargo FOLL: Gawn, Viney, Pickett IC: McVee, Harmes, Sparrow, Grundy SUB: Chandler B: K.Turner, D.Turner, Adams HB: Hibberd, Tomlinson, D.Smith C: Howes, Jordon, Burgoyne HF: Laurie, van Rooyen, Moniz-Wakefield F: Melksham, Schache, Jefferson FOLL: Verrall, Woewodin, Munro IC: Farris-White, Sestan, Edwards, Baldi

I think the 20th team should be Southport. They already have the infrastructure.

I've got to do one considering I love my best 22's B: Lever, May, Hibberd HB: Brayshaw, Petty, Rivers C: Langdon, Petracca, Hunter HF: Viney, McDonald, Neal-Bullen F: Grundy, Brown, Spargo FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Pickett IC: Bowey, Sparrow, Harmes, Chandler Reserves B: K.Turner, D.Turner, D.Smith HB: McVee, Tomlinson, Buntine C: Howes, Jordon, Woewodin HF: Laurie, van Rooyen, Moniz-Wakefield F: Sestan, Schache, Jefferson FOLL: Verrall, Munro, Goonan IC: Farris-White, Edwards, Baldi, Burgoyne

I'm tipping North to finish 17th but I agree with you grazman they could surprise and climb up the ladder. They have some good youngsters. Expecting a big year from Davies-Uniacke and a full season from Cunnington can only help them.

I have them scrapping into the 8 at 7th but who knows they could fall out of the 8.

I can't see where they will improve. Will finish between 10th and 14th.

van Rooyen unlikely hey. New best 23 then. B: Lever, May, Hibberd HB: Brayshaw, Petty, Rivers C: Langdon, Petracca, Hunter HF: Viney, McDonald, Neal-Bullen F: Fritsch, Brown, Spargo FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Pickett IC: Bowey, Grundy, Harmes, Sparrow SUB: Chandler EMERG: Melksham, Jordon, van Rooyen Reserves B: K.Turner, D.Turner, D.Smith HB: McVee, Tomlinson, Woewodin C: Howes, Jordon, Burgoyne HF: Chandler, van Rooyen, Laurie F: Jefferson, Schache, Melksham FOLL: Verrall, White, Munro IC: Moniz-Wakefield, Farris-White, Sestan, Buntine INJ: Adams, J.Smith, Salem, Dunstan

I'm predicting top 8 but their forward line stops them from finishing top 4.

Hawks should win the spoon but Essendon will give them a run for their money as will North.

I think Essendon are certainties for bottom 4. It will be interesting to see the Hawks v Bombers round 1 game I'm predicting it to be the battle for the spoon.
