Melbourne listed players to half time: 

Garlett: Cannot see him playing for the dees again this year. 2 ineffective touches, no tackles, 0 chasing. He is very lucky that Goody isnt at the ground. Garlett was moved around the ball now, but still not having an impact. 

He doesn't deserve the jumper.

    Lockhart has to be a good chance of getting picked up by someone this year

    Deserves at least a rookie spot, i think.

    A lot of outs hurts but this is Casey’s worse performance of the season.

    Has Garlett done anything?

    Are these two sentences linked at all, Re attitude, Dkn167 ?

    ...  courage inspires, and the opposite also applies.

    Garlett has been woeful. Was woeful last week against the Swans and if you want to see how a small fwd should operate Murphy for the Hawks has been outstanding.

    My guess is that Garlett is on the chopping block. Went back to Casey to focus on his contested side, made the senior team to be dropped again for lack of pressure, comes back to Casey and has a nightmare game with a real lack of interest. 

    Great decision to drop him. Need players that will bleed red and blue. Sadly Jeff isnt one.

    Casey coach should have dragged him just to make a point.

    yep... the scenes of them holding down the commentary tent were classic as was their commentary under what were very difficult conditions.

    I increasingly find myself turning the channel7 AFL commentary down

    We need players who are hungry, for the contest, and the ball, and to win...

     

    We certainly do not want players, who are a handbrake on the club.

    And Casey let a team score 7 goals in a quarter to blow the game apart. Rawlings is taking his copying Goodwin's game plan to new levels...

    Any thoughts from Casey watchers on Lok as a prospect to rookie?

    Not good enough no football brain.

    Wow.  

    Lockhart, Corey Wagner, Petty (especially early), The rookie (Freeman?) malchia and maybe Dion Johnson get passes.

    Keilty maybe in this group, but not enough impact.

    Nufty votes go to the rest, Garlett #1, Bugg turnover merchant, Flipper -one tackle.  King rucked but beaten.  Josh Wagner - nowhere near a recall.  

    Casey boys made an effort, but the problems were team wide.

    That was a shocker better rebound next week or we can go from minor premiers to out in straight sets.

    The only good player was Lockhart.

    Garlett disgusting must delist.

    Agree on Lockhart.

    And on delisting Jeffy.

    Casey's worse performance of the season, and it just happens to be televised D=

    Lockhart is a gun and should be at least rookied, CWagner could be as well. Thought DJ was good today and Keilty, Petty and Hutchins had some nice moments but otherwise not really a great game from the boys, Twig certainly wasn't happy. 

    Don't let this game skew your view of Casey though, this was their weakest team of the season and I'd think they'd be bouncing back hard next week v Williamstown at home to secure the minor premiership.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
