I won’t question Goodwin, because everytime I do, I get smashed from pillar to post. But we lost this game, like many others over the last few years, due to selection and match ups/set ups. 

Gawn bloody good but 

No...please question the 'steering committee " ....i do.

That was a schmozzle...from selection to execution.

A train wreck forseen.

Question him and question him hard. He's shown absolutely nothing as a game day coach or developer of young players.

Lewis, Tyson, Petty and Weideman back to VFL. They were all next to useless today.

Petty and Weideman are our future 

 

Tyson maybe

 

Lewis never again please

The only reason we LOST this game was because of bad, bias umpiring.

Umpiring was appalling, but look at the ladder. We lost this game because we played awful slow footy.

Our "brand" is built around roles.

Can't say either is working too well.

Goodwin must hate Paul Roos. 

He took any bit of defence Roos instilled in us and [censored] it right off. 

Patently obvious that has occurred. It began to look elite twelve months after Roos' departure - experience building. Now, absolute tripe, poor selections, poor development, no genuine aggression or skills.

Lost this one at selection.

The balance wasn’t right today.

Harry Petty has potential but should have been kept in wraps for a while longer.

Billy Stretch and Sam Frost have been very strong for weeks at Casey and should have been picked. 

 

WJ agrees with me on this issue- Goodwin couldn't pick his nose.

Come on media hit us hard and put the acid on Goodwin!  This club deserves all the tags it wears.  Losing to a bottom team who played with purpose and heart.  We are a club who has no Heart!!!! Goodwin and his rabble of a coaching group should hang their heads in shame.  Another generation of supporters getting killed off by this club.

We need to bring out our own version of this for that 6 game winning streak we had before we fell off a cliff.  Its the closest thing this club will ever have to success.

Petty not ready

Oscar very weak 1 on 1

Viney wasted tagging

McDonald obviously not 100%, agree he should have been rested

Needed one of Stretch, Garlett, Spargo

Obviously our best came in the final qtr. Many lifted in that 30 minutes... the heavy criticism of Jones is unwarranted, J Smith had several important involvements when forward of the centre, clutch goal by Lewis was fantastic, Hogan contributed during last. Gawn, Viney, Hibberd, Harmes, Fritsch our best

Every week is a new challenge, we're not done yet!

Give Keilty a run, Frost has the experience but Dec has been playing better plus as a mature age recruit whose been at VFL level for 4 years now I don't think he'll look anywhere near as lost as Petty did out there.

How the hell we came to within 2 points I'll never know, good fight back in the last quarter but just horrible.

As I posted before the game, the umpires had to force the score-evening goals in the first half; they excelled, maintaining these incorrect and unnecessary decisions for the entire game. By half time, I had counted 4 StKilda goals being granted for unwarranted 'infrigements', perhaps the 5th could be included for 'absolute tiggy-touchwood' decision-making as it was getting more dificult to spot the error when it was not there. We are being cheated and this is the 8th time this season that it has occurred - albeit we still won a couple of games in that mix. We cannot allow this to continue - it is too obvious and everyone is scared to comment on it. The Club must initiate the enquiry, not be one referral but frequently, en masse, seriously, as there is now adequate video footage to be used as evidence.

Well the statistics show that St Kilda did a lot more short kicks than us. Against Port Adelaide we just continually  banged it up to a very crowded full forward and hoped someone marked it. This is how we consistently fail to score against good teams and poor teams for that matter. We just never  beat St Kilda and Hawthorn and …….  Perhaps a team from Darwin could represent us?

Joel Smith to come in and play Lever's role? What a joke.

Frost was the obvious option.

Petty not even near it but lets choose him ahead of Frost!  So Goody.

No crumbing small forward 2 weeks running...still betting eveything on 3 Talls.. joke of the year especially when found out against the Pies and Port (both in the 8).  If that doesn't tell you something then you don't deserve to be coaching any team at AFL level.

You get an idea of an umpires underlying motivation when he pays in the back against Salem after a magnificent chase and tackle (the in the back resulted from the Saint player diving forward well after being pinned legitimately). Similarly last week, Nicholls motivation was laid bare for all to see with the 'blocking' free against Melksham.

    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
