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.

Hahahahaha.... Amazing.
 

Hahahahaha.... Amazing.

Amazing because?

out: JKH, Watts, McKenzie

in: Jetta, Dawes, Riley

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

Jetta may be good to some back in.

But Id bring in Dawes for Watts. Pedo did some good things and he should be kept for another week.

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.


ins- Riley Jetta Dawes

outs - Watts Mckenzie pedersen

jetta t-mcd dunn

salem garland grimes

michie brayshaw lamumba

jkh hogan gartlett

cross riley vandenburg

Georgiou to Buddy again

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?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
