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: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
