Lever and May back for QB game. Wrap them up in cotton wool this week.

CASEY: Rd 9 vs Werribee Tigers
Weideman?? Any sense he will be a chance to return to form. ** Sorry apparently he and Jkh are travelling emergencies
-
WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - AUSTIN BRADTKE
Good question. Hadn’t played in 4 weeks yet not injured. Not in the squad this week. Maybe he is only allowed a handful of Nab league games. Being managed or rested or just not ready to come into Casey contention.

2019 AFL National Draft prospects: The next batch
1- Rowell 2- Anderson lock it in I still see the Demons getting 9 wins and 13 losses. That’s 12th to 13 position. About pick 6 or 7. I reckon Dylan Williams would be a great young kid to get into our team. Hayden Young, Brodie Kemp, Sam Flanders are others likely to come under the JT Eye.

CASEY: Rd 9 vs Werribee Tigers
Lever? Thought he would play a half to 3/4 quarters. Queens birthday??? Unlikely !!

CASEY: Rd 9 vs Werribee Tigers
Assume Dunkley gets a game this week.

CHANGES: Rd 11 vs Adelaide
No way Lever should play this week.

Brad Green's Wife Passes Away
I met Brad 5-6 times and he was such a great bloke. Friendly. Smiling. He stood up despite the Demons dark years. I am sad for Brad, his boys and Family and friends for their loss. Such a tragic loss. It’s heartbreaking. MFC must ensure he is supported now and watch over him.

Is play-on at all costs still the way to go?
It’s not the play on. It’s the delivery of the footy. Our delivery continues to be very very poor. Footskills are so critical to moving the ball forward and quickly.

2019 List Changes
It’s rather early but (imo) possibles Garlett Jkh Vandenburg (if he cannot comeback from his injury) Chandler (r) gone Maynard Lewis (retired) I think 5 spots is max off the list. We just need to get injured players reduced
-
CHANGES: Rd 11 vs Adelaide
Omcd only in because Lever is not quite ready to go. Petty also needs more time to develop and another year in the gym.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND KYLE DUNKLEY
A good addition. He is a good ball winner and smart user. Handy old fashioned determined footballer. Not quick. Not really skilled. These will be through the end of year draft.
-
CHANGES: Rd 11 vs Adelaide
I don’t know how Omcd still gets a game. He was slow. Outmuscled. Indecisive. Made to look so substandard. AGAIN
-
CHANGES: Rd 11 vs Adelaide
Fritsch might stay in BUT needs to play forward or on a wing. He’s not a backline player.
-
WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - CHARLIE SPARGO
Too small. Too slow. Lacks competitive intensity. Missed tackles. Kicking ineffective. Has the brain for footy but not the elite weapons required for a man of his size. A good vfl or country footballer. We Bypassed Charlie Constable which is looking like a big mistake.

Jake Lever - Suspected Ankle Injury
Agree. Relax. One more week off. Back in Queens Birthday
-
Billy Stretch Appreciation Thread
Agree. When he tries to finesse, it comes unstuck. Surely the coaches know his strengths and his weaknesses and advise. If we can see it...

POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs GWS
I’m just so gutted post game. Watched the game on the tv. I was feeling crook before the game. Worse after the game.
-
My 3 word player analysis V GWS
Agree. Viney and Frost were ok. But yes 12+ players were shockers
-
Demonland POTY - Round 10
From the Tv. 6-Gawn 5- Hore stretching it now 4- Viney (just needs to tidy up disposal) 3- J Wagner (He might prove me wrong) stretching it even further ie struggling 2- Baker (I really like his style of play) 1- Frost ... because lots of others were passengers 16 others - 4 ok and 12 absolutely need to look in the mirror (Brayshaw and Petracca are really really disappointing me this year)
-
PREGAME: Rd 10 vs GWS Giants
Agree. If we can’t stop Cameron, it could get ugly. Frost is the only one quick enough. But I’ll be nervous every time!!
