Changes Vs Essendon

Featured Replies

I see this as the week for player management.  We have Frost, Hannan and Fritsch all fresh and ready to come into the team (depending how Bugg pulled up after the corky last weekend, him too).  Jordan Lewis is a possible starter as well.  Based on the really short break, and the fact we ran out of gas on Tuesday, I would suggest that there will be a number of changes to get a fit and non-fatigued team onto the park.  I could see Smith also getting a run as a forward to replace Kent if Smith's Hammy was only 'tight' and not injured.

We may have a few players that need the break - Nibbler for his marathon running, Bernie maybe for age.

I think Stretch gets another go even though he had a mare on Tuesday.  Where else are we going to get outside run?  I am unconvinced re Garlett.  But he will probably be well rested after his light training run on Tuesday night so should have no problems getting up.

I am also unsure if we take Pedo in.  perhaps we look for Pedo and Weids as F50 targets, and Hulk further up a CHF and wing?

 

This is definitely a week for fresh legs.

A lot depends on who's available.

If Lewis can play...i would. We need someone down there directing traffic. Maybe HE can remember what a 'switch' is. 

If Tmac available....straight to CHF.. leave Weed in the square...mainly.

Fritsch in. Be nice having someone who can pick the ball up .

To be very left field id even consider Pedo for Max.  Max isnt the difference in THIS  game , but kicking some goals IS. It'd freshen Gawn up for the Saints.

Kent's obviously out. 

Some who are becoming liabilities might need a freshening in the Magoos.

Candidates in no particular order: ANB, Stretch, Harmes ,Jeffy ...but on a dry track with Ess who are currently kings of stuffing around with silly kicks around the back arc...is this his 'good' game ?

Which part. 

You cant take in 3 key forwards.  We were only playing one 2 weeks ago and now you expect them to take 3 in?

It seems you put a lot of time into reply.

Question for the regular Casey watchers:

How are Baker, Balic, Spargo,  Keilty  and Petty progressing in their respective roles?

Are any of them near ready and if so what roles?

 

Thanks

Why not? As I stated earlier, if we don't, that allows Hooker to play forward or (which I didn't say earlier) frees Hurley up. I'm not necessarily yet convinced we should play three tall forwards, but I certainly think it's something to consider.

Hurley and Hooker will have to play on Weed and Hogan, it doesn’t really free them up. 

I think it showed yesterday with the Collingwood mids going forward and kicking goals, that this is something we can also take advantage of with Oliver and Trac. 

I also think they should play Hunt forward, his kicking skills aren’t great and really hurt us out of the back line on Tuesday but his speed is vital.

I think Hunt, Salem and Stretch should be our main wingers as they are the players to benefit most from the space there and are best able to hurt the opposition either with run or good delivery into the forward 50.

It is a waste to put Tyson or ANB there, as they butcher the ball and are not really quick of mind or foot. They can play in the middle at the contest if they are in the side.

I agree with you except for Hunts ball use

That's why I said "either with run, which he and Billy have, or good ball use, which Billy and Salem have".

Hunt actually fumbled at least 4 handball receives on tuesday.

Until Viney comes back I would have Oliver pretty much exclusively as a mid.

Trac forward for sure...but we need Oliver in the midfield.

EFC have no real grunt in there and we can take advantage of that.

Bomber have injured/suspended:

  • Mckenna
  • Begely
  • Colyer
  • Francis
  • Gleeson
  • Green
  • and hopefully Fantasia

they dont have much depth and have one less day to recover.  so I completely agree to play fit, fresh players. 

Fritsch and Hannan to come in at least. T Mac and Lewis if available.

Kent, ANB, Vince out at least.   play Hannan on the wing if needed

They said on Fox footy last night that Fantasia would miss from memory

And you could add Anthony McDonald-Tippa to the in doubt list.

What was the reason he went back? No one knows, People were shocked when he was dropped lucky we played a good game since then we have been rubbish.

I wasn't.  He was playing poorly.

Can I be completely crazy, and 100% demonstrate my utter lack of football nous.

Can we put Max at CHF to take marks/bring the ball toi ground with whomever in the ruck. He might even snaffle a few from 50?

How did 1 go ?pretty ordinary.

How did 2 go? not much better.

Just because Richmond only be in with 1 key tall doesn't mean you can't go in with 3 the Weid will need help considering Hogan plays so far up the ground.

I'd leave Stretch in myself. Give him some consistency, and it's not as if we have players banging the door down (for the moment). Also, given the reduced time between games, pool of possible replacements is already low as some will need resting.

Spargo's VFL form has been better than Hannan's do you consider him?

Been on this for a while.. let him tumble put a kick into our forward 50.. get the ball from the wing or high half forward.. burst run for 10m and get a deep entry in.. better than him running out of defense and kicking it to an opposition player at half forward, then the rebound is on so easily.

Goodwin needs to be pro active.. work out what his strengths are and use them.,

Hunt has played forward before and looked completely lost. I'd rather persist with him in the backline. Against Richmond  he showed plenty of dash and courage but lacked touch and polish. I think that will follow if he is allowed to stay where we know and he knows he plays best.

lets be honest, he has never had polish,  and i don't want him out of the square.. just higher than the defensive 50. I would love him to recapture this rebounding best, but maybe as circuit breaker freshen up, get him up the ground.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    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

    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.
