Have to say Jurrah would have an early finish to the season at this stage.

I reckon it might be worth bringing Cook or Fitzpatrick in.

Thoughts?

 

Pretty sure Cook is cooked for the season and hasn't played the last two weeks.

I'm all for Fitzy coming in and playing full forward...!

 

Port are giving it to Essendon at the moment....wont be a pushover next week.

No. There seems to be something going on with ****, & I hoped Fitzy would have got his first run this week in front of family and friends.

Now Casey play @ Port Melbourne next week & the Fitzy family are died in wool old Port people.

I think it would be best now to keep the Casey finals bound team together as a unit, all those eligible to play and We should make a REAL GO of It, TO WIN THE DAMN THING!

This is our Best shot at a Win with the Melbourne/Casey alignment... With the players This Year,,, we can go all the way, if they WANT TO.

Probably a good call. I think that the club might ask Fitzy what he wants to do, and just go with that.

Could not give a flying stuff about Casey or the VFL. If the club thinks Fitzy would benefit from a run in the seniors to give him a test and let him know what is required at the elite level then thats where he should play. If not then fair enough but structuring our line up around a VFL clubs finals aspirations is amateur hour and laughable.

No they won't. If they want him to debut he will. No player will ever ever say I will stay in the two's instead of making there debut.

I hope the big fella plays.

Also Mcnamara out, doesn't give much would like to see bail get another game.

IN: Bail, Petterd

OUT: Jurrah (inj), Morton

FB: Frawley, McDonald, Bartram

HB: Garland, Rivers, Bennell

C: Bail, Moloney, Scully

HF: Green, Watts, Petterd

FF: Martin, Howe, Jetta

FOLL: Jamar, Trengove, McKenzie

INT: Blease, Jones, Tapscott

SUB: McNamara

EMERG: Davey, MacDonald, Morton

This way we can take along all 3 emergencies to Adelaide while not effecting Casey's finals as none of the 3 listed are eligable anyway. As of the following week, all of McDonald, Jetta, Blease & McNamara can return for Casey's remaining VFL finals.

On top of all this is the FACT, that the Structure thats now been built @ Casey in recent weeks with Gawn @ Campbell rucking and Fitzy playing tall deep with Fev is sensational. the only thing missing is Nev! Jetta...

The team morale & camaraderie is Magic and we shouldn't stuff it up. It's an extremely hard thing to deevelop.

They're a group who care for one another, and all the boys are Enjoying their footy. They can go all the way, If we keep them together and focused.

Melbourne will be a big winner out of it if we leave them there for the Finals campaign.

If he wants to play at Casey, why would we not let him? You would risk pissing the bloke off, for the sake of a pretty nothing game against the Power. IMO helping out Casey to go as far as they can is a good thing for the club. A winning environment around our players is always only going to help.

A flying stuff, well that must be close to a flying fluff! And I couldn't give a stuff what you think you know.

In: bate, bail, Fitzpatrick

Out: Morton, Martin, Macnamara

What I think I know is that I support the MFC and want them to do what's best for the MFC not some backwater club from suburbia.


OUT : Jurrah (injured), McNamara (not up to it),

IN : Bail, Fitzpatrick

As much as Watts is close to my favourite player, I reckon he might also needs a rest, or at least start on the bench.

The game against Port is going to be a beauty, I reckon. Yeah, I know, 2 poor sides etc... but both want to win. Dees want a record that shows improvement from 2010, and Port want to show something to supporters and critics.

If the club thinks its in the interest of his development to get some AFL experience before heading into the pre-season for next year then that's what should be done. I'm ot saying chuck him in for no reason but if they think its the best thing for him then do it. I wouldn't be even thinking about Casey or any success they may or may not have.

Oh, is that right?

Well what do you think we did with the U-19's & the reserve competitions in the old days then.

I think you had better just stop to think for once.

U19's & Reserves were a different kettle of fish. They were all the MFC. Casey is not. Either way I would be disappointed if the club decided to hold a player back from playing Seniors so he could play in the Reserves if it meant hindering his development.

Sorry Dee-Luded but as much as you might not want to admit it, Melbourne still comes first. If the club thinks it's best to give Fitzy a taste then he should play v Port. Putting Casey before Melbourne is ridiculous. Same reason as why Howe was not dropped back simply to qualify for Casey finals!

And if you think that is a selfish decision by the MFC, stiff. Remember Casey recruited Fev out of their own interests, not for any benefit of Melbourne or the young tall forwards they've drafted.

Casey have the double chance and following next week, they can have access to any eligible Melbourne player. Following next week.


In: Bate, Bail, Fitzpatrick

Out: Jurrah, Morton, McNamara

No need for Davey I wouldn't think and I wouldn't risk Petterd.

So on that basis Both Petterd and Davey have finished their seasons

as neither can play for Casey in finals.

And you rob Casey of Bate and Fitzpatrick.

With one game to go we should consider Casey first IMO.

Bail (I do not think he can play for Casey ), Davey, J Mcdonald and Petterd ( if ok ) are in.

OUT Jurrah, Mcnamara, T Macdonld and Jetta all the last three are needed at Casey.

That Assumes Jurrah is injured

Melbourne will always put Melbourne first. Why you would want to worry about Caseys finals is beyond me.

Petterd I have a feeling is out the the season anyway. They can play the first week of the finals as Melbourne are still playing.

Davey should play at Casey as he isn't good enough. Fitzpatrick deserves his debut.

Oh great so Casey are totally expendable!

And the MFC have so much to achieve on Sunday!

We have got to get a better attitude to our partnership with Casey.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
