Like many of us, I really believe the club would love him to be able to play AFL again but begrudgingly I now accept he is not in our or any top 4 team best 22.

Opening goal of last quarter to the Bulldogs.... one point the difference

fog rolling in...

[Constant Mongrel 571]

if anyone is watching/listening to this game, how's kieran collins going for the dogs? i remember him being a big lump of a lad leading into his draft year and had hoped we might've got him.. there's been all this talk of lever and day, but how's he goin? obviously not great if he's in vfl..

[Diamond_Jim 12,108]

Weideman just dropped a sitter that would have put the Dees up by 7 points....

Casey by a point

Listening to the radio Rocky, sounds like he is playing a good game, keeping weideman quiet and is spoiling alot of our forward attempts this quarter

[Wilson7 2,543]

Zijai playing a good game, kicks his 3rd

[KC from Casey 6,780]

Zijai gets his third ... Demons up by 8 points.

[Wilson7 2,543]

13 point lead, goal to Mitch Cox, just into time on.

[Diamond_Jim 12,108]

Cox of Casey goals and Casey now up by 13 points as we start time on

[ding 5,126]

Game over?

 

[KC from Casey 6,780]

Yes, it's all over and the Demons win by the lucky number 13 points. That makes it four wins in a row.

That's a few good games in a row for JKH, if anyone under performs in a role that he can fill they'd better watch out. 

Its sad what's going on with Trenners but he really does seem to be out of luck with getting back into the fold with us. You'd imagine he'll be moved on at years end. 

I hope we see him at least one more time out on the G in Red and Blue.

Vince & Lewis won't be playing forever for us.  They have maybe, 2 seasons left, Max.

Trenners is just 25.  keep him, rookie him, make him Catain of Casey, & an assistant coach.  And maybe, if warranted in future, then relist him, .

[Caligula's cohort 1,014]

Any news on Kent's performance? 

[FireInTheBennelly 4,031]

I tell you what, if JKH can keep this form up and not get picked I may have to send a little letter to one S. Goodwin.

Why? Who does he push out of the side? 

The last time he was rewarded he did stuff all for 4 games.

Last time though he didnt deserve promotion. Didnt he come in off the back of 1 game at Casey, and being injured the few weeks prior?

I wouldn't be against him coming back in for another crack, hes been in great form for three weeks in a row.

[FireInTheBennelly 4,031]

He was definitely gifted the games last time round, and IMO was picked for 2 games too many. I was just as angry as the dill that wrote the letter, but to do it is quite pathetic. He wasn't performing and there were clearly others ahead of him, but that's uncalled for.

This current FD have been almost bang on with the list so far (Hannan as the prime example) and they clearly rate him so I'm happy to give him more time. Like WB says though, who does he nudge out? Same with Wags. Those 2 on current form are clearly above VFL but who comes out? Tough for JKH when it looks like he needs midfield minutes, he's way down the list in that area, and ends up getting a gig as a small FWD.

Let's see what happens over the next few 6 day stretches, they'll probably both get a chance at some stage.

Wow I could have foreseen that! Why on earth was he given another year?? Pointless!
