Changes v Hawthorn - Semi Final
Agree no change. But Spargo was overawed and the heat will rise up next week. Not sure if any replacement stands out. Garlett not in form but has the pace to worry the dawks and Jkh didn’t fully take his chance. Jkh tackles do stick more than Spargo.

Hawks destroy dismal Demons
Round 4 it was the darkest day of the year 5 goals to 2. Demons led at 25 minute mark of Q1. End 6 goals to 18. Hawks got 16 out of last 17 goals. What happened? 1- hawks pressure led to panic 2- fumbles v clear handling (especially in the wet after half time) 3- danger men - Gunston, Roughead, Breust, Shiels, Omeara, Smith , Puopolo (Mitchell was held but is always dangerous). 4- Clarkson held a player behind the play and a mini flood of our running game. Aka Richmond style. They counter attacked perfectly. (We cannot get exposed again and clangers will kill us) 5- kicking for goal. We missed set shots but they nailed everything we are a better team now. Bring on Friday night.

The Importance of Jordan Lewis
Lewis was very good last night. Won the 1v1s and controlled space. Outmarked only twice all night. Two fumbles but most did on occasion. One turnover but overall effective disposal. Keep our minds focussed. Excellent pickup still imo.

Injury List - Season 2018
Hopefully all good after last night. Gawn is clearly battle worn. Need to physio to work overtime this week Spargo and Fritsch looked fatigued but hard to change a winning team.

AFL.com beats Picket to the punch
Dangerfield was a 5. We controlled him all night. Got the pill but was grounded in impact.

Welcome to Demonland Toby Bedford
You want fairness and equality Gill and Eddies AFL is not the place Interstate teams (academy) and mega powers (free agency) get the sweet deals and the draw ... wow that’s biased in so many ways

Key tactical issues v Geelong
FINALS ARE DIFFERENT EXPECT HEAT. PHYSICAL HEAT. EXPECT GAWN AND OLIVER TO BE TARGETED CUTOFF THEIR HEAD (Gawn) WILL BE THE CATS PLAN BRING IT ON BUT DEMONS MUST BE DUSCIPLINED AND NOT LOSE OUR HEADS. EYES ON THE FOOTY. TACKLES THAT STICK.

Welcome to Demonland Toby Bedford
Bedford could be nominated at 40+ which we would match. But not top 25.

Who do we realistically target for a trade?
free agent Andrew Gaff obviously trades 1. Sam Hayes for Jkh trade or Tom Cutler for Jkh trade 2. Need to get to 4 picks (33, 43, 51, 56) Suns Pick 56 for Tom Bugg Either the above option rather than delisting Bugg and Jkh which would happen post trade period. 3. Tom Campbell (dogs) for MFC pick 88

The search for a big man ...
Prefer Tom Campbell. 27yo is 200cms 106cms mature body ready to step in if needed. 6 years at Bulldogs. 42 games. May stay at Dogs if Roughead leaves. I think a left field call for Tom Goodwin. 27yo son of Andy Goodwin. 200cms 111 kgs. Captain Coburg Lions. Would be perfect as a ruck backup and leader at Casey.
