Apart from Salem they can all be up for debate. 

Just utter slop. 

Out: Frost

In: May

Etc

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

    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.

    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.

    Drop: Weid

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

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

    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.

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

    Out - Viney

    In- Anyone that’s fit.

  • Quote

    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.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
