Has only managed a full season once in his 8 seasons with 22 games played in 2017 and hasn’t played more than 12 in the other 7. I’m not sure he would offer more than what we already have. 

I’d rather put some more development into Hunt and Stretch as ‘Line Breakers’ as they have age on their side.

Agree but doesn't hurt as depth in that department and Hunt and Stretch have been injured a bit

No player was more disrupted by the drugs stuff, he was on the verge of breaking out, hurt his foot then had to miss the whole year.

He'd want to be cheap and maybe only a 1 year deal but I'd certainly take him.

Been reported and some talk the we are keeping a close eye on him? Swap with Dom Tyson??

Colyer is one I wanted us to recruit around the $cully years.  A good run & carry player through the corridor.

I can't remember exactly which draft, if it was $cully draft or next. 

# edit:  I just went back to check that draft... and I also wanted us to grab Daniel Talia big-time,,, in this draft... then I noticed who we took 2 places earlier than Talia...  arghh.... we took Gysberts.

I would prefer Colyer to $ulky, every day of any week.

I think those biases are shining through. 

Scully is 10 times the player Colyer is.

Yes he would, and when young Farmer comes available to us,,, he will need some development time at Casey.

Colyer fits our timeline.

Look at the players we've delisted, they are the ones we are replacing.

... ready made 'run and carry', are top of my list at least.

I would not let $cully back into this club.  We don't need him.  &   I for one, don't want him.

There's plenty more smelly fish around.

my bombers mate says 'take him...take him NOW'

she thinks he's one of the biggest butchers in their side, and that's when he gets it more than 15 times a game, which is basically never

suffice to say, not all peptiders rate him

They also didn’t rate Melksham

Can get the fumbles, and can butcher it a bit.

But has real pace and knows where the goals are.

Would give you more than the likes of Stretch and Kent.

Probably needs a change of club to get the best out of him, a la Melksham

Check the time of the game and the match score when Colyer kicks his goal.

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
