Apart from Salem they can all be up for debate. 

Just utter slop.

    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.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
