Last week
Yet again Jimmy did us proud and didn’t the Pink Lady look fantastic last Friday night? When the game started a fascinating struggle ensued in the wet weather between the emerging Demons and the favored Bulldogs. At the end it was Footscray by 4 points but the Dees would have won over many supporters in our only Friday night game for the year.
This week
Jack Watts is in this week in the only change to a team that is putting in a highly competitive effort every week. Tom Scully starts on the ground for the first time after his 39 possession game last week. It was great to read during the week that Tom is looking forward to playing alongside Jack Trengove at the MFC for the next 10 years. The future is indeed looking good!
On Saturday against the West Coast the Dees carry the unfamiliar burden of favouritism. Will we win? I’m not sure but I am tipping the Dees. Join us at the Camelia Grove Hotel at 2.00pm this Saturday to watch the game.
