Casey Demons vs Williamstown
Yep a tragedy of the game. WAFL is close to dead and been on the decline since the Eagles first started. When the comp was getting strong again around 2009-13 they brought in stand alone for the AFL sides and killed it off further. Having said that many in WA are fair weather fans and all they care/know about is the Eagles

POSTGAME: Rd 03 vs GWS
Port made the fatal mistake of going in tall against West Coast particular inside forward 50m It has always been something to avoid against them but even more so now when they have good users by foot across the board. You very much need to play only 2 talls a medium and 3 smalls to lock the ball in and apply ground ball pressure against their defence. The above coupled with the lack of man on man at centre clearances set Port up for failure the other night

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - KYSAIAH KROPINYERI PICKETT
Itโs no longer us in the trade revision gun, itโs the Bombers but like us with the Josh Kelly, May for Pick 6 and trading up for Kossie Picket calls, I still think the Bombers have done ok with Cox and Perkins. Jones has shown a bit so far and itโs only very early days. Very happy to have KP, he has tricks that you just canโt teach

GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs GWS
My thoughts exactly, like North on Friday they will come hard early. Any midfield with Ward, Coniglio, Kelly, Taranto,Hopper and Greene is going to be up for a fight

The Tragic Story of Rod Owen
Yes I have seen it first hand, previously worked in the Sex Crime area. Whats seen can't be unseen and what's read sometimes has a bigger impact. I became immersed in an investigation that consumed my life more than it should have a few years ago. It impacted me and my family to a point I never thought it would. It was tragic the victims ranged in age from late 30s to late 40s when they came forward and to see the effect it had on their lives and the destruction had a big impact. The offender was a Catholic priest who in the 70s and 80s preyed on vulnerable children and destroyed lives. The actions of the Catholic church we uncovered were deplorable. The bravery of those victims to relive some horrors of their childhood should not be underestimated. The day we knocked on the priest's door was gratifying to look him in the eye and acknowledge we knew what he'd done and they were no longer frightened children, who didn't speak up because they thought they wouldn't be believed. Many of the victims were substance abusers, suffered mental health and were severely effected to a point they will never recover from. The Rod Owen story unfortunately is not isolated

Clayton Oliver Contract negotiations
Yes absolutely, donโt turn this into one of your long running 20 post sagas and donโt let facts get in the way of a whisper, which evolved into your statement Was Clarrie unhappy- yes maybe Was he out of contract - No Did any club offer us anything to take Clarrie -,No Do managers put rumours out 12/18 months in advance of contract negotiations- yes all the time Did any club have the required funds to pay for him - North and Hawthorn did but at trade time nobody else did Did any club have the required compensation to get Clarrie from us-No Would we have let him go for unders - No So yes Iโm absolutely saying He was never โcloseโ to leaving last summer.

Your Top 5 Demons Players of All Time
Started following in 1980 when our jumper was Royal blue, which is why I don't mind our current clash jumper. Seen a few glimpses of promise without getting the job done. In the early years Robbie Flower was my hero, Connolly came on the scene and I thought here we go but injury hit him. Viney snr was tough in and under no backward steps and we had Strawbs, Grinter who never took a backward step. Plenty of potential under Danners but we never had the backline or the ability to [censored] teams down when they got momentum. The current crop is very talented gives me hope 1. T. Viney 2. Flower 3. Schwarter 4. Stynes 5. Clarrie

CHANGES: Rd 03 vs GWS
A player on the coin heโs on should relish the challenge to silence the critics Fatigue will come late, but if we set doubt in early mental fatigue will set in I love our defensive set up inside 50 at the moment with Sparrow, ANB Spargo and Kossie all creating defensive pressure as soon as the ball hits the deck. This creates pressure immediately and prevents teams moving the ball cleanly through transition which gives us opportunities to turn it over and set up behind the ball
