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.

    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.

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
