Why is running around to try to get on his left all the time then?

He just laid a brilliant run down tackle.

D Rod with a goal, 63-41 now.

Fitzpatrick has a real presence as a forward.

That's a good question, as a junior he was so good on both sides that no one was sure what his natural kicking foot was.

Can't agree with the above assessment of Jimmy Toumpas. Along with Magner, who's probably BOG here, Toumpas is dominating. There's also a bloke over at Port Adelaide called Hartlett who probably fitt

I actually wouldn't mind a lot of our younger boys having a good hard year at Casey, working on their DEVELOPMENT as footballers. Then next season we could see the likes of Hogan, Toumpas, Taggert, Ty

Just back from the game, watched the second half. A very good fierce game of football, Crackers Keenan on the boundary encouraging his Port ruckman to "hit in hard" every few minutes helped! It was a

I don't know but he's a natural right footer.

Fair stretch to say he's great both sides of the body though Steaming. Not from what I've seen.

Hartlett has never been as timid as Toumpas. It was injuries that held him back, not intensity.

In saying that some great defensive work from Toumpas just now on the half back flank, resulting in a forward movement that saw a goal kicked by Bonaddio.

How do you know that, have watched all Hartletts games since his drafting?

I'd imagine I've watched nearly all of Hartlett's games and about 2 years of him training.

He's a jet. Injuries cruelled him.

fair enough.. I reckon Toumpas will be fine... as long as we take our time with him, & let him develop. I hope we don't rush him.

He is a good kick but hasn't settled at AFL level yet. I think he will take the wrong option and back himself to hit targets that are less than 50/50, and also because he can he uses his wrong foot when he should go to his natural. There is still a bit of smart A in Sam and he needs to let it go to realise his potential.

It has. We copped some flack when we let GWS get 19'pointsnahead of us. The media are going to go nuts about this no matter how much the Bombers win by today.

Its all relative, isn't it.

we'll be a lot better once we get a good handle on the Zone were building, & the bigger bodies in, & up to zone speed.

hopefully we go a bit better in the next couple of weeks, & by the mid-season, IMO we'll look like a different team, altogether.

Well he just used his right and hit the target no drama.

Crouch gets it to Dawes, goal.

71-47 now deep in the third.

DA, every time you bag a player they do something great and we get a goal.

Keep up the good work!

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
