There is a nice highlights reel - Declan Keilty

I thought Hamish Brayshaw was on the list? Surprised that he wasn't picked up?

    Its great isnt it. Plapp must be stoked as both likely ro be with casey most of the year so they dont lose the talent or the synergy and history they have with their Casey team mates. But will have the advantage of afl level training, develipment and training. 

    A win for both young men and both clubs. A very smart move.

    The other positive is that the MFC players who played multiple game for Casey and Smith and Keilty will know each other pretty well, which has to hep in terms of them settling in and the general vibe around the club

    How can he possibly be fielding calls while doing a 10km run?

    That's what he was doing right?

    Is he big enough to play on Gorilla forwards? We still lack a defender who can take on these.

    Nothing against our draftees but it beggars belief if we didn't draft a key back. Tmac who struggles on gorilla forwards goes down our next option is Omac....

    If it's any consolation he was rated Number 1 this year in the VFL for one-on-one wins, mostly against key forwards.

    Listed as 194cm but has a good leap on him and an athletic powerful frame that should fill out. Oscar will be stronger next year and Frost is being trained up as a defender now. So that's 3 options other than Tom to take on the big boys.

    Cloke got him once or twice in that absolute wet bog of a game at Casey but he was more beaten for smarts by an experienced player than for sheer strength.

    1 last thing I'd like to note, is his listed weight shows 88kgs, where the last time he weighed in he was up to 96kgs, pure muscle. A good pre-season in him and he will have a very competitive amount of strength.

    Haven't seen much of Dec, other than what's on the highlights tape on the MFC website.  The kid looks like a genuine swingman, which will be awesome.

    Have a feeling that he will fast become Uncle Bitter's favourite, given how much he likes his swingers...

    I hope Declan has a successful career.

    Please don't take to heart any of the remarks that will come if Declan drops a mark or misses a goal, some people can be feral.

    Spoke to Macca about him, showed enough improvement in the 6 week mini pre season last year and consistency at Casey to be given the chance, think only scratched surface they want to see what full time environment can achieve

    Big lump of a bloke, managed to rip his training jumper to shreds in tackling drill

    I saw him train early in that block at thought his endurance was poor and skills were ordinary. I actually thought Moncrieff was the far better prospect of the 2.

    So I was very surprised with his Casey form this year. I get the feeling big raw country lads would be Macca's specialty.

    Macca's speciality is getting the best out of everybody, reckon he is the best signing, apart from senior coach,  the club has made in the last few years, you can see the respect from both the coaches and players, also calls a spade a spade, ask a question you get an answer

    Attended a a small function with Macca as guest speaker a few weeks ago and thought it was just about the best one I have been to, in terms of learning something new about the club.

    Macca was honest and informative and you couldn't help but feel that the club is now in great hands, from the CEO down.

    You got the feeling we would leave no stone unturned, in our quest for success.

    Also the Pizza was great. Must find out where it came from.

    I thought you had been banned from partaking in pizzas Red. Something to do with the number of kgs displayed on your scales.?

    I also attended that evening and can confirm that McCartney was a very special presenter who is really positive about the direction of the club and particularly about our younger brigade. 

    Declan's in good hands.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
