Apart from Salem they can all be up for debate. 

Just utter slop. 

Out: Frost

In: May

Etc 

Posted (edited)

let's be honest...there's not much at Casey.

Lewis and May back raise the question of who goes out.

Could Keilty get a game in place of Hoare?

Forecast for next Saturday is a maximum of 16....much better for us I hope !!

Preuss should have been played today if he was any good. Geelong are light on in the ruck department so Gawn should be sufficient.

I worry about Spargo after that game and it sucks for him. He does everything right, for a player about a foot taller.

Spargo has good footy smarts and I thought he tried today and did some good things. 

As usual, when the whole team Plays poorly, it’s easy to signal out individuals but  Spargo was okay for mine. Just needs to remain in the game at times.

Tried to impact the game with numerous tackles but ball carrier still easily able to offload.

Cant fault his endeavour.

I don't want to see Frost in the Seniors again. Salem can hold his head high, the rest were generally average/poor today. On field Leadership non existent. Jones was awful. Same one dimensional "bomb it long to a contest" game plan, with no evidence of Plan B. Out coached.

Drop: Weid

never ever play Petracca in the centre when  Weid is ruck.

Neither can play that role. They are both talented but hopeless.

Both didn't have great days at all today, but you can't say they're hopeless.

Spargo was bordering on pathetic. As was Frost, Oscar and Hore. But the problem was the performance of the leaders Viney, Jones, TMac and Gawn.

May and possibly Lewis come in but it's going to be much the same next week.

Get rid of Oscar and Frost. They were both diabolical! May and Petty/Keilty comes in. Both of them are just plain shithouse and add nothing to side.

Hore is meh.

Jones won’t chase and incredibly casual dropped simple mark, when mark and captains goal may have kept us in it.

May, Preuss for Frost, Wagner

Lewis will be standard 21 Day hamstring recovery 

Disappointing if so.

He's made for a16 degree game at Kardinia Park

KK could be an inclusion if he gets through the Casey practice game

Sorry, that may have read wrong. I agreed with what you wrote. I didn’t mean to imply you thought that, it was simply an extension of the narrative. Right spot, right time but struggles to influence.

Too many errors from Spargo, agree with you re the leaders, also why didn't anyone return fire with the aggression ?

May & Lever cant come in quick enough! Will change the whole dynamic / structure of our play. 

Backline was an absolute mess today. Salem the only winner down back... could argue our only winner for the day. He was fantastic.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
