Farewell Sam Weideman
It is a pity Sam has gone backwards. Perhaps he should be tried in a minor defensive role for Casey. We need another quality forward , I would have trialled Thommo or J.Smith up forward in the reserves . J.Smith probably only has this year to prove himself , he seams to get a lot of injuries playing defence . Another one of our problem is Langdon is out we tend to struggle on his wing . You can only trade players if they are under contract however however a team will be offered a draft pick (not the one they would like ).

Angus Brayshaw Re-Signs Until 2028
Every team has to give up 3 senior players ( do not think a rookie counts) . Hibberd ( prob. becomes a rookie ) Melksham delisted Chandler traded , Weidman traded and Brayshaw traded ( a second rounder ) We need to have enough to pay for Jackson.

CHANGES: Rd 09 vs West Coast
If Gawn is rested , Daw must be given a chance he is our back up ruckman. I wouldn't expect Jackson to ruck most of the day and risk injury.

CHANGES: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
Not totally convinced we are a better off playing Weid in the same side as Brown . Still think T.Mac is a better option due to his ability to play defence and forward. In Lever and Viney Out Smith and Dunstan Would love to see Smith play forward for Casey.
-
CHANGES: Rd 05 vs GWS
Petty to play forward , he has kicked goals before . Weid out, needs more reserves time . Maybe Smith for Hunt or Tomlinson . Looking at the TAB odds for 1st goal Petracca not mentioned . Dunstan to be given a go.

Getting the jab
People in aged cares was test with rats, found to be negative yet they had to be retested using the PCR method.Guess what they were positive for covid. Nothing like getting the results you want!!!. Ottawa Canada more than 50,000 trucks have stopped in protest. You can view this thru telegram. The state debt is at 794,000,000 (7.94 billion) million dollars , our population is roughly 6 million. Hence our debt is approx 134,000 dollars per person and increasing each time you get vaccinated. Someone(s) is/are eventually going to collect. Imagine if our football club was millions of dollars in debt and we were forced to merge or to go into liquidation , most supporters would be up in arms . My response would how could we allow this to happen. Some of us wouldn't support a merged side.

Trade Targets
I wold like to see us get Kent from St.Kilda (ex Demon player) in exchange for Melksham or something like that. Mac Andrew would be nice for development ( 2 yr max ) . Like to see Smith and Daw play forward.

Prediction: We will have won the most VFL / AFL premierships by the end of this decade.
Did dream we would win the GF in 2021 back in 2019 ,however got opponent wrong.Also dreamt we would six g.f in a row and 7 in ten years. Perhaps it is the drink talking.

Nathan Jones for Geelong's first round pick assuming the pick is under 22.

AFL TRADE NEWS AND RUMOURS
Given lack of opportunities in the 2nds I would have like to see Daws play forward. Smith on the wing/forward or Declase on the wing. We should prise Kemp from the blues, I am aware that he is not a world beater now. Hunt took awhile to get going with injuries and poor form. Rivers could be made into a mid whilst Petty could play forward next year and cold be another T.Mac. Our areas I would like see we need a forward an outside mid.
-
Will Nathan Jones get a farewell game?
Jones was gifted matches early this year. We were able to able to run down a pensioner side in the cats last week , so why do we a pensioner to be added to our side ? Water boy at best.
-
Adam Cerra
We need money to pay for up and coming players, so it is a no for me.
-
CHANGES: Rd 23 vs Geelong
Declase for Brayshaw . J.Smith could play forward.

GAMEDAY: Rd 20 v Gold Coast Part 1
Scomo wants 80 percent Ozzie lab rats to be vax twice . The non vax 20 per cent wouldn't be allowed to visit the footy, hence 20 percent less attendance , 20 percent less members and 20 percent less revenue. These lockdowns are going to go on for a long time with each state playing silly buggars. We may end cancelling the footy this year. As a Dee supporter I feel gutted , we our reserve team has more byes than not taking into consideration the VFL start 3 later than the AFL. Next thing will happen Victorian TAB online punters won't be able to bet on QLD and NSW races in fear of catching the Virus. I also heard that the Delta variant came from Greece. (Delta is a Greek letter)
-
CHANGES: Rd 20 vs Gold Coast
Gut feeling , Hunt forward . Brayshaw to fill Hunt's position . Bowie / Johnson wing ( probably Johnson getting dropped) Melkham in. Not sure who is out .
-
CHANGES: Rd 20 vs Gold Coast
In Daw( forward pocket) . Declase(wing) ,AVB(mid) and Melksham(forward). out Viney , Brayshaw , Spargo, ANB
-
CHANGES: Rd 19 vs Western Bulldogs
Harmes for Viney. Bowie for Brayshaw. If we were playing a p.ss weak side then we should make a mandatory five changes.
-
Forward Structure
By getting the Weid to do more than being just a forward is going to give him more confidence . His current lack of form is in his head. I could see him making a recall in 3 weeks time.
-
CHANGES: Rd 17 vs Port Adelaide
I really don't like the use of Joel Smith as a defender ,seem to get injured a lot as a defender (perhaps it is only an assumption). Perhaps Petty will play forward and J.S will play defence. Hopefully Vanders comes in for Sparrow or Viney or Brayshaw. Must make 3-5 changes as a wake up call to the rest.
-
Are the Demons pretenders?
I am leaning to possibly we are not pretenders. I have seen form slumps before that make one chunder. Under Skilton we were 9 win 2 loss half way thru the season (12 teams) comp. then the wheels fell off 1 win 1 draw and 9 losses no finals. In 1965 we were going well then the wheels fell off. We were going well one year then loss 6 straight plus much more. I am turning white typing this. We have in the past 3 players constantly injured Vanders , J.Smith and Viney. We should have flogged Viney off to Geelong , to win flags forget loyalty. We picked up Daw as a back up ruckman surely we should be trying him as a forward as well as J.Smith in the reserves as we are getting nothing out of Weid and B.Brown. We also offer N.Jones a one year contract, no other club wanted his services. We have to make 3-4 changes for the Port clash as we have flat lined.
-
CHANGES: Rd 17 vs Port Adelaide
In B.Brown (nervous selection ) ,Vanderberg , Melksham, Jones Out Pickett, Viney, Brayshaw and Jordan We just have weid the axe before it is too late ....... 3 to 5 changes.
-
CASEY DEMONS: Rd 12 vs UWS Giants
We have been holding out for some to kick goals in the seniors.Cannot understand why B.Brown didn't get a call up. Between Brown and Weid neither of them are up to scratch. Why didn't we try Daw or J.Smith up forward. We seem to be back to making dumb decisions.
