    How must Hore be feeling after 2 or 3 very good games at Casey, to still be behind Oscar in the pecking order

    Last week was Hore's first game back after missing 3 weeks

    Mac as backup ruckman .....really. I hope Drysdale is correct and there are late changes ie Hore and Stretch. Oscar can never say he wasn't given opportunities

    I legit cannot in the world find a simple Match up for McDonald.  

    The only reason I can think of is that we are now officially tanking for Noah Anderson. 

    They’ll literally run circles around those defenders. Baffling selections.

    OMac retains his spot and no Hore. Goodwin said Collingwood have some really good smaller players so we’ll need players who can play on big and small. Watch their forwards run rings around OMac. I give up. 

    OMac can play on smalls and talls. Just very, very poorly!

    That won't get them far ET!   Might make them dizzy, though.  Cunning plan?

    I'm so over this. I can't believe Hore isn't named against a forward line with one tall.  I know May and frost can play on smalls at times. But ATM are out best two stoppers of big forwards.   Lever doesn't have an opponent as he floats and intercepts.  But to have them in back half with a slower Hibbard this year and then  McDonald is not able to take the big boys this year and is not smart enough to take the smalls is ridiculous.  I totally don't understand. Goodwin please stop treating us as complete fools.  What the hell is going on.

    Question:

    'Oscar played again after being dropped because Steven May got injured, not on the back of form at Casey. So if it weren't for Steven May's injury, Oscar would still be in the VFL and the 'myth' would be a truth. Would it not?' 

    Answer:

    Apparently not

    He's named on the bench.

    Perhaps he'll be a late out or perhaps May will spend some time forward.

    I'm thinking (preying) for late changes.

    Either that or May / O'Mac up forward. O'Mac spent a quarter up forward at Casey some weeks ago. It wasn't pretty

    It’s perplexing as to what happened to OMac really.

    He wasn’t too bad last year and seemed to be tracking ok.

    This year he has turned into a complete spud.

    Can’t have that when yr tank...er, experimenting

    Don’t see how Hore doesn’t come in for either Wagner or OMac. 

    With May, Lever, and Frost in the line up Oscar not only feels like we’re going in with poor match ups but two turnover merchants in Frost and Oscar. Hore may also have those issues but at least he’s able to take a defensive mark. 

    OMac and Frost should not be in the same team unless absolutely necessary.

    Petty.

    May forward.

    OR pending the weather they may drop OMac all together and bring in Hore. It's a very tall backline for a possibly wet and windy day.

    I'm surprised as anyone Omac is in. May forward might well be the reason.

    • 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.
