What I remember reading was that Sylvia was taking the [censored] out of him a bit for being so outspoken so early. Laughing and carrying on, etc.

Bull plays before Pedo. 

If they make 1 change, Viney for Weed.  

If they make 2 changes Viney, Bull for Tyson and Weed. 

If they make 3 (unlikely) changes Viney, Bull and Garlett for Tyson, Spargs and Weed. 

I think just 1 change.

Harmes has been thrown in the ruck a few times and done okay so maybe that’ll be the plan to allow Bull to play?

That was a big fail for mine vs the Hawks Drunkn but yes it's possible.

The alternative is you play Bull and just don't have a resting ruck.   Extra ground level player / mid fielder at the drop.  Pretty sure the Bullies and Tiges have done this in the past on occasions.  Would think the aim is to half the contest at ground level while Big M is resting.

If it’s like for like, then Pedo for Weid. Wouldn’t be opposed for Viney for Vince but most likely Tyson. Doubt they’ll make anymore changes to a winning team

Line by line we should smash them.  For every quarter we play, I think 3 goals better to the Dees.  That’s a 72 point margin if we plat a full game.

In: Smith

Out: Weideman 

TMac to ruck. Not ideal but think you reward the Casey form.

Edit: forgot Viney ? stupid flu brain. Too hard for me then.

Know theres a lot of love for weid and Pedos not the future.......but I recall Pedo throwing his weight around more than Weid who has only recently bulked up a little. Pedo in for Weid  if only to see some carlton players laid on their ar5es. Jack in for very  unlucky Spargo.

Vince is named in the starting eighteen so it won’t be him (more likely Tyson)! I suspect that they will bring back Garlett for the indigenous round against Adelaide next week in Alice Springs (particularly  since his relative designed the jumper)!  As for Weid’s replacement, I wouldn’t mind seeing Bull have a run.

I agree with most, two changes only.

Any truth to the rumour Dom Tyson has been named in the starting lineup for Casey?

If he is on the extended bench then this is normal practice.

Weid has 2 kilos on Pedders if you believe the MFC stats deever.  Would like to see Weid slowly up the ante on the crashing / throwing weight bit from here now he has the weight on.  Not saying he doesn't or hasn't tried a little but a bit more of it would be a very handy addition.

Exactly. If what Goodwin says is true about rewarding Form, Bull HAS to come in over Pedersen.

Bull has been playing really well in what position at Casey Drunkn?

Midfield and Forward. Mostly forward on the weekend and was unreal. Took 10 marks, including 2 hangers, a couple of goals and plenty of tackles.

I realise The Bull Smith is somewhat of a demonland cult figure, but can anyway elaborate on his form at Casey?

I talk Bull up a lot (and for good reason) and people may think I give him too much credit. But lets look at his stats from the previous few VFL games.

v Box Hill (Played Forward) 3.3 goals, 20 Disposals, 10 marks, 7 Tackles

v Geelong (Played Midfield) 25 Disposals (Most for Casey), 12 Tackles 

v Werribee (Played FWD/MID) 1.1 Goals, 12 Dispoals (10 kicks), 9 Tackles

v Coburg (Played Forward) 2.4 Goals, 24 Dispoals, 6 marks, 2 Tackles

Has been in the Best On most weeks and an emergency for most games I believe. But the numbers really stack up especially his previous 2 weeks. This is also coming off a limited preseason. Bull is playing the best football of his life and deserves AFL games.

Whoever comes out for Viney will be stiff, up till last week I would have said ANB but then he just went and played his best game for the year. Tyson would be the next cab of the rank but he’s been better than ANB every week but last, or do we mess with the fwd line and drop Spargo and move ANB fwd full time.

Spargo stays we don't have a pressure forward if Viney replaces him.

Viney has to replace Tyson now that Vince is in the starting 18.

Bull for Weid they should be the only 2 changes.

 I think they want, looking forward for the next month, as much mature experience as we can muster together. So >

Viney for Tyson

Garlett for Spargo.

Bull for Weide.

sorry - that just is not correct.  Not by a million miles.  Watch the last three games on replay. Drink every time a pass from Tyson or a forced handball post his pass becomes a turnover.

You NOT sober.

I'm far from an ANB lover but his current form is > Tyson.

For the ruck I think Pedo will have to play. Some choice picking 4 from interchange. Fritch the only definite I can see.

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
