rowell and anderson look like incredible talents

i'm friends with fish mcasey's dad, who played one game for the aints back in the 80s (his claim to fame is that when he went on the ground plugger was sent to full-back!) and fish looks hella brave as their chb

Main commentator clearly looking for a full time gig at Fox Footy. Gets a bit too excited but FF would like that.

Ugly second half for Casey but looks like some elite talent in this year’s draft crop, headed by the blood nut Matty Rowell and his midfield mate Noah Anderson (nephew of Dean, and not eligible for hawks or saints as father-son selection)

Great support for ANB on here as usual.

He tries his guts out and is out of form. Why kick him while he is down?

saw him impact one contest (in first half), but that was it

edit: may not have been out there in the second half, as we clearly ran without afl-listed players for the majority of the second half

some talented kids out there

I don’t hate or love him, I just commented on what I saw. I hate bagging players (they are not ‘spuds’), but his play was noteworthy in its cost to the outcome.  Perhaps we all expect more given his role in the firsts?

He is obviously not working hard enough at his skills at training

Just thinking that Baker would not want to do a Hammy again,  in a Praccy match.

The Supreme Court.

I’m a bit out of touch re legal procedures; when does the Privy Council kick-in?

Well that was a good start to the day.

Seriously Chook, this game means nothing.  We took off most of our decent players at half time with ANZAC Day in mind.  How you can be negative about what is clearly good player management is beyond me.  The result is meaningless.

Also, the fact they left ANB out there is probably reflective of his short term chances of getting a run back in the senior side.  Looks like he is a long way back.

Not saying much but ANB was clearly our best player today

Billy played the first half and with 16 possies was the clear BOG and the commentators agreed ( not that that means much ).

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
