You have to give credit to bail and jones for still giving their all to get a win for Casey. Still important they keep pressure on anyone who doesn't perform.

Can't you just take pleasure in King playing well?

Was at the game today. Spencer ran hard all day,and Bail and Jones had plenty of it. Oscar McDonald was handy, and King had a blinder.

Not sure if anyone is an automatic in next week, but Jones and Bail put their hands up. King isn't ready just yet, got the better of his opponent today but he will be tested against the really good backman. Hopefully he can build on today's performance.

Interesting seeing Cale Morton running around.

Thoughts on how Harmes went Adzman?

Jones & Bail's numbers are a fair indicator of the gap between VFL & AFL standards and pace of game. Both unable to take the next step to impact in the big league so far.

To be fair, while I don't disagree with the above statement, they would play majority of their game time in the midfield when they're in the VFL hence the high possession numbers.

When they're called up to Melbourne side they're assigned specific roles, generally defensive forward roles and therefore don't get those numbers that people are expecting to translate from their VFL form.

Why was Kennedy Harris playing in the development league?

My theory is he would've been on restricted minutes. With 4 bigs in the Seniors - King, Dawes, Spencer, Jamar - it wouldn't have been smart to have a guy sitting on the bench after using up his minutes.

Playing JKH in the D League allows us to play King in the seniors as a [censored] for tat by doing the right thing by Casey.

Harmes played well.No doubt he is someone to watch. Had more of an influence than McKenzie and seems to read the play well.

King has great skill for a tall man. Shows real talent. I'm sure the club has a long-term view.

Every club wants a 'forward ruck' as opposed to a 'ruck forward' for that second up role and King should develop into a Hale type.

Great to see Casey get the win, and also great to hear King play well. Will obviously want to see him do it a few times before he is in the seniors, and who knows the quality of the defender he had given Dawes and presumably Spencer/Jamar were down there too, but exciting times.

He won't be in number 47 next year if he keeps this form up.

Why not? What's wrong with 47?

Daydream for today: 2017, Max King FF, Jesse Hogan CHF.

2017 Side:

B: Jetta T-Mac Lumumba

HB: Salem O-Mac Frost

C: Toumpas Jones Stretch

HF: Petracca Hogan Viney

F: Garlett King Kent

R: Gawn Tyson Brayshaw

Int: Watts Neal-Bullen Vandenberg JKH

That team is not taking into account any draft picks or trades in the 2 years. Plus we also have guys like Howe, Garland, Dunn, M. White, Dawes, Michie, Trengove.

Good to feel we are on the right track.

I'd like to think we have more than a year left in Vince.

Interesting that King bagged 5 but not mentioned in the official best list.

KC or others - did he do much else than kick those goals? And forward ruck work?

Also interested in comments on

- Dawes

- OMcD

Thanks

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
