I don't think they realised Gysberts has the work ethic of a sloth.

I was surprised last weekend to see Gysberts playing for St Kevins old boys in premier B amateurs. Hardly looked like a player with his experience in the AFL. Slow lazy and absolutely no body definition at all. A few ex Hawks VFL players looked bigger than he did, how did we get it so wrong?

Spencer and Gawn should be doing well (in the ruck) as their opponent is absolutely hopeless. Spencer did have a shot on goal from 15 meters out more or less right in front and barely scored a point!

If you're listening on the radio I wouldn't trust which players are being called.

I've seen about 3 different players been called as Toumpas in this quarter, Matt Jones has also been called McKenzie & Michie in the last 2 minutes.

Turns out there's a live video stream which wasn't posted at all before the game:

No idea what our/Scorps media dept. are doing to be honest.

Great ! Cheers for that!

Sadly there is a large pillar covering the 20-40m of the Casey forward 50, but other than that, a very good quality feed.

I posted the video stream a few posts above.

Thanks very much Seraph! I realized that & while you were replying to me, I was deleting my post.

Watching the live stream, I'm pretty impressed with Michie's game since half time. Disposal OK and gets a lot of hard balls...

Not sure about the camera being behind a whopping great pole but a great initiative.

How/why the club didn't inform supporters about this is odd. A Facebook post. Something.

Agreed. I only found out about it as Casey posted it on their twitter (at half time).

I would have watched the entire game had I known about, as I'm sure many others would have. Not everyone is able to get to the games at Casey and plenty would be interested in watching approximately 1/2 our team play a competitive game.

Rudimentary streaming tech could fail if too many using it ...

once again, the comms from the mfc are ridiculously bad. the very fact that this stream is happening means that it would have had to have been set up some time ago - at the latest during the week. it really doesn't take much effort to communicate this sort of thing to fans.

It's worth noting that it's a stream that's being run by the local radio station, rather than Casey/MFC.

Someone surely knew about it though, it's at their own ground after all.

these commentators are terrible, call so many players by the wrong name

We can confidently say those boys don't understand much about football or know what the players bring to the table so let's not worry about those.

Michie, Toump, looked good so far

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
