It was a joke precious, you need to stop being the arbiter of what people can post, the poster doesn't seem to have an issue, so I respectfully request you pull your head in  and go back to topic 

Hopefully we have a red hot go Hawthorn are only another 22 blokes, with Trac Brayshaw and Oliver cracking in for the first time together should be fun to watch

it's NEVER fun watching hawthorn play

I don't agree dc.

I have enjoyed watching them for most of the last decade.

A great side that just keeps on winning.

I know most of us will be going along on Saturday hoping it is not a bloodbath, with a little bit of a hope for a miracle win, I actually enjoy watching Hawthorn play myself, they play on the edge and never give up, something we all want MFC to be.

And hopefully the guys will have a real crack and get an idea how far they have to lift to get even close to Hawthorn

I had a chat to a few of the guys who are 'stuck' at Casey, the morale is high, quote from one "we are having fun down there, want to have a real crack at winning the flag"

Any other news?

Bits and pieces

JKH thinks they have finally solved his hamstring issues

Terlich has shaved his head, it looks shocking but has grown beard, Garlett persisted in calling him Chunk during the drills

Hogan barely got out of a trot at training, but was walking freely, didn't seem too down when I spoke to him

Salem is back at his playing weight after losing 5kg

Lots of work on the field kicking at training

Any other questions will try and answer

They're like a big turd that won't flush.

The only solution is poking it with a wire coat hanger that's been slightly warped. Perhaps the players should arm themselves with coat hangers.

That troublesome turd can be flushed with a big bucket of boiling water too. A method I've found  successful on more than one occasion. Would work well with the Essendon football club.

did it seem like Hogan would be more likely or less likely to play this weekend?

Who knows, he didn't seem restricted kicking, he only jogged though, walking without any limp or discomfort,  we may put him through a more severe session tomorrow away from prying eyes

I have noticed that they seem a pretty happy bunch. I reckon it has a lot to do with Plapp who seems a quality coach and individual.  In the rooms after the Coburg game they even seem to have learned the club song, but they still hold up the words. I was just wondering if Viv was getting disillusioned. Has been in the best for 9 out of his 10 games but getting no love from the FD. Guess he will be looking elsewhere at the EOS. Pity because I think he is as good as any in his group but seem that because he is not a Roos draftee he does not get a look in despite the stated policy of selecting those whose performance warrants it will get a game.

Viv has to be one of the quietest blokes in the group, you never notice him at training, just goes about doing the drills in a professional way, he never looks down, think he just enjoys, and feels privileged at, being on an AFL list and gives it everything he's got at whatever level he is playing

Can't wait to see Oliver, Brayshaw, Petracca and Weideman playing in the one team, hopefully with Hogan. Not to mention Watts, Stretch, Hunt, etc. it may even be an exciting game watching the 2017 team debut.

I'm not sure that's correct. I thought Michie was one of Roos' recruits in his first year. Can anyone confirm?

In: Bugg, Weideman, Oliver

Out: Chris Dawes, Josh Wagner, Matt Jones

Emg: Colin Garland, Cameron Pedersen, Matt Jones. 

So Pedo would come in if Hogan doesn't get up.

All looks pretty good to me!

Pedo, M. Jones and Garland named as emergencies. If Hogan does not get up it looks as if Pedo will be there to babysit weed.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
