Throw Watts behind the ball for a bit, let him get his hands on it, takes some marks and use it well to set up some good attacks

Just looking off the boil today. Young teams like ours are going to have fluctuating form, but it's frustrating that the so-called senior players seem to be the ones going missing every few weeks. Make no mistake, the Bulldogs are a well drilled team and they went in as favourites today for a very good reason. Would've been nice to finish inside the 8 for at least one round, though. Our percentage is being decimated.

At least a few of the Casey boys will get a look in for next week, should revitalise the side for the Lions game.

Redpath is dominating, didn't see that coming...

Watts is continuing his form from the past month.

Hogan's kicking is now officially a massive concern.

Petracca has had some really good touches.

That fifty against Garland was incredibly unlucky, technically correct but they have barely paid those all year.

Jetta is such a great player.

Compared to the doggies players, our boys just have no idea where to position themselves. This will be a drubbing.

They are much better drilled and run much harder than us our players are too lazy today, second to the footy and fumbling.

Jetta and BenKen great.

Options going into F50 poor. When it's crowded and we have the defensive structure set up  we have to hit the hot spot 20m out. Can't try to to pin point something short because they'll get out the back.

When it's open, we have to either get right over the back if it's on or go short.

We've got it all mixed up today.

Too fumbly. If we clean things up we still have a chance.

we have been way too handball again today, plus the Dogs just seem to have numbers everywhere around the ball, then a tonne of space for their players' inside 50. Our mids need to lift big time, as their ease of entry is really hurting our already underwhelming defence.

So many of our own players are around the contest and we handball backwards or into a tackle. While the dogs only handball or throw it to advantage.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    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
