It still annoys me that people take such great delight in players being delisted. It seems unnecessarily spiteful to me. It was obvious to everyone that Kennedy would be delisted. You can't play

Trengove could be captain at Casey. It seems his AFL days are numbered. However we need people like him around our development players @casey. . Too good a clubman and football brain to let go . Sad,

Sad end to the career of Trengove. His first few years were great and showed such promise, to the point he was made the youngest AFL captain in AFL history. He was neck and neck with Dustin Martin for

With Col Garland retired and everybody else on contract, it looks as if we're set to recruit four more players to fill our main list. Our last pick will be 47 - around the same place where we drafted Mitch Hannan last year so it looks like there's going to be a little more interest on draft night than there was last year.

You are having a tough night tonight aren’t you? So sorry mate, we can give you a hug next week at the game. Sounds like you need it.

Game plan is the problem not players. Richmond have many average players but clearly it doesn't matter.

it's a mix of both, tigers actually have a fantastic list with great depth , were missing 3 players from the past week yet covered them fine, on the other hand we only have one player in the vfl putting his hand up selection who is a key forward in their 30s on their last legs, all the tigers players are quick yet the only fast players I can think of are frost garlett and hunt, we really need to draft better ball users and speedy players as the players we have now are not up to it in the modern game- which is built on quick ball movement and intense pressure, it really makes me wonder why we draft such slow players

Maynard and King are developing so they will stay for another year.

Wagner won't be delisted.

I would hold onto Neal-Bullen and Harmes for depth.

Add Frost and I agree with the rest. 8 sounds like a good number for delistings.

Bernie Vince. I love the old Vince but he left at the beginning of last season. 

King- project player that has not worked out. 

McKenna - injury prone. 

Kennedy Harris - no hunger to play AFL. 

That is about it but we are not playing the right players either. Spargo, Fitsch and Balic will get an extended run now, as will Pedersen.

Salem and Tyson are two of our better players and automatic best 22

Unless we get a like for like replacement they’re going nowhere

FMD, think about list make up people

Lewis has a year to go; he’s not going to forego a year’s (very good) salary

Vince May retire or he may play on - he’s automatic best 22 for us, so why not get another year and decent pay out of his body?

McKenna and vandenBerg (and potentially Kent) don’t have the bodies to play afl

Maynard, JKH and DJ sadly don’t look up to it

And then it’s a matter of judicious trading; but if Salem and Tyson were parts of that conversation I’d be mighty surprised

tyson: absolute butcher of the ball, poor 2 way running and refuses to man up, slower than gawn, has no left foot, gets caught holding the ball too often

salem: small, lacks pace, poor 2 way runner and gets beaten by his opponent too often, kicks get smothered frequently, not fit enough to play midfield, can' take a mark

vince: so slow, handballs to the ground, poor defensive skills, butcher's the ball

 

I would hardly say they're best 22

    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.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    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
