Round 14
This week we turn to the game this Sunday, this time against a team that systematically tore apart the raging flag favourites last Friday night. Any sane person would predict this game to be a whitewash but sanity doesn’t always prevail in demonland. Our performances against the top 4 sides this year have been more than admirable and with some luck (and FAST STARTS) we would have won more than we have lost against them. So which Melbourne side will turn up????……who knows but let’s hope that we go in hard, show commitment and get a FAST START!!.
Coming into the team this week are Jamie Bennell and Kyle Cheney who are both named in the starting 18 and Jake Spencer and Addam Maric who are named on the interchange bench. Joel Macdonald, Tom Scully, Jordie McKenzie, Brad Miller and Matthew Warnock complete the extended interchange bench. Great to see Cheney get a chance to play his first game for 2010 after he played 12 matches in 2009. Cheney has been consistently named in the best for Casey Scorpions in the VFL competition. And also great to see Jared Rivers playing his 100th AFL match. After a bright start to his career including the Rising Star in 2004, Rivers has had to overcome a debilitating injury to again become an integral part of our defense and a member of the leadership group!
