[tappysquads 618]

Don't know much about him, but highlights made me think Could he be our Tory Dickson?

Really happy for the Casey guys getting into the AFL, shows what a great partnership it is. 

 

On that, a little birdy told me Keilty isn't too far off either

maaaaattteeeeeeee!!!!

Geess I thought the Casey partnership was terrible for the Dees.... seems otherwise!

[Biffen 12,941]

Loved the video.

Would love to see a them extending the practical joke a bit more.

Like pretend to give someone a game and then say "Dees Candid Camera- sucked in you idiot- you'll never play afl level"

or tell someone they'd will be traded to Gold Coast- then tell them it's a joke .

Just a few random ideas for where we can take this

Well Pickett Fence said we should cut ties asap with Casey and start our own because the alignment doesn't work ?

Goodwin has shown his hand.

He will keep playing Oscar and Weed as long as they keep following instructions. Only way they'll be dropped is if they don't follow team rules or lose fitness or form so egregiously there is no alternative but to drop them. Get games into them.

Joel Smith. Same deal.

Tim Smith. Same deal, at least until Hogan is back in. Get games into them, find out what they can do.

Pedo, Trenners, can get ready for a long season at Casey, and silently pray for a killer run of injuries.

Tim Smith has been picked because he was the tall forward in the best form. Goodwin has shown his hand that if you are performing at VFL level you will get a game. On last weeks form at Casey the next tall option would be Keilty. Pedo is not in form at the moment and it would have been an injustice if he had been given a game this weekend. I am sure he will be considered again when his fitness and form warrant it.

An 'autocorrect owning' if I've ever seen one.

Not having seen Casey for some time what are Tim's strengths. Can he mark overhead in the pack or on the lead? Can he play KFP at 192cm. Has he got any pace at all? Is he hard at the ball. Have not yet seen a description of his abilities.

Like a prank telling him he's been stood down for stealing stationary/post-it notes and then filming him breaking down in tears as his dreams are crushed perhaps?

Yes, watched him for last three years and most training sessions since he joined the club

Your questions pretty much answer all that he is capable of manny. Watched him a number of times with Casey and on his day he is a solid all rounder in all those aspects. Hard as nails and strong through body with tackles inside 50 as well as through the middle. Is a natural forward upstairs, reads the play up the field extremely well, knowing when/where to run to get to the drop of the ball and when to present up on the lead. He runs the angles well and is 'usually' super accurate anywhere inside 50.

Stepping up to AFL level might take a few weeks though so not expecting a break out game or amazing accuracy in First game or two. Might need 3 to 4 weeks to find his groove. I think if he is given that 3 to 4 weeks he will easily be our most consistent effective forward and will play an important role in shaping our destiny into our first finals series in 11 years.

Im predicting he will be our version of Podsiadly and have that sort of impact over the next 4 years or so, assuming he can stay healthy and remain on the park.

I'm a big Pedo fan but you'd have to say he won't feature much in Goody's plans and seems to only be on the list to make up numbers and for depth. It's a shame because I think he can play. He's not a champion but he's certainly not a dud.

Means we're moving forward then, doesn't it? : )

[ILLDieADemon 804]

Is this guy any good?

[Deefender 232]

Smith is good alright.

He keeps his feet, can kick a goal.

Will prosper at Dees, live wire.

[Drunkn167 5,093]

Im playing local footy in Gippsland Saturday morning, but by the time the games finished I should be able to drive down to Etihad just before the first bounce. Super keen to watch my first game for the season, even more so since the Bull is debuting! Cannot wait!

[monoccular 17,422]

Can / does / will he do ruck relief?

[In Harmes Way 7,766]

When Tim kicks his first goal, I'd like the crowd to yell

BULL ....  YES!!!

[Hogans Heroe"s 16]

Let's hope he's singing the song in a Gatorade shower on Saturday night eh.

[Hogans Heroe"s 16]

When he gets the ball or goes up for a mark it should be the long dragged out BUUUUULLLL! Like they do to Josh Bruce

[Hogans Heroe"s 16]

Be nice to get a good Dees crowd to the game....we don't like cats supporters.

Telling someone they will play AFL for their club, then saying it is a joke is harsh. I don't think we should be doing that. 

[La Dee-vina Comedia 16,750]

Just happy to have someone in the side with a real nickname rather than just adding a 'y' to the surname.
