Crikey, you should do the MFC website weekly medical reports, including images of the scans. Glad you don't support the Cats, otherwise James Kelly's injury might be rather delicate to report on.

I think Stu may have a similar injury. But it's been lingering for several years.

It was actually today. And what does loyalty have to do with being dropped due to poor form?

So you would drop one of our most skilful players, you jumped off that ship pretty quickly...

OUT: McKenzie, Salem (concussion)

IN: Riley, Fitzy

Fitzy to play on Tippett and maybe some backup ruck.

Grimes and Watts get one more week I think, let's not be too reactionary as our coach won't.

Going by our fitness manager's assessment Viney and Jetta won't be ready, and you'd think Dawes would be touch and go.

Seriously Stuie, don't ever consider going into coaching.

You expect Fitzy in his first game for the year to do some sort of job on one of the biggest power forwards in the game.

That's just as bad as debuting Watts on QB ..

Keep up with Casey at all pal? But yeah let's put guys who are undersized on the "biggest" power forward.

No because there are no Kurt Tippet types playing VFL, Jesse Hogan would be a better option to play on Tippet than Fitzpatrick.

out: JKH, Watts, McKenzie

Didnt see the game, haven't had time to read gameday thread yet so serious question.....JKH, what happened?

As opposed to Garland or Dunn who give up at least 10 cm....

I agree with you stuie, Fitzy has an X factor and so much upside, similar to Stef Martin in many ways.

To my eye JKH consistently gets caught by trying to do too much and doesn't seem to take the easier option. He. as a result. turns it over and burns his team mates.

I understand he's young and his mistakes come from enthusiasm but I feel he needs a longer apprenticeship at Casey.

A lot like Jones and Tyson oh wait a minute, the only reason they get caught is that they are not "Fleet of Foot" or built like the Fyfe Brick shizen!

Houston we have a problem!

I do. Footscray resting ruckmen in Campbell and Minson kicked 5 on Fitzpatrick last week.

That's almost a coherent post. :P

I was at that game, he had a poor week, but he didn't have 5 kicked on him. Has been amongst the best pretty much every other week since moving back.

Wached the first half of the Casey game. and now half way through 3rd qtr.

I am all for bringing Fitzy in as he has impressed me down back but who do we drop for him? You would have to go tall for tall.

Get rid of McKenzie please.. I would bring Riley in for him. The guy is a nutter around the stoppages!

I wish Toumpas continued his good form from the first half. He really was BOG for the 1st QTRS of the game. Now gonna watch why he went missing.

Dawes in for Watts.

I am pretty concerned about the match up for Tippett, pretty confident with Tommy Mac being able to stop Buddy though

How far away is Viney?

He's done three of his four weeks they said for the fibula crack.

Surprise inclusion?

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
