I'm curious. When I read this I expected the last word to be "congested", not "contested". Both are correct, but with the 't' and 'g' so close on the keyboard, I'm just wondering which word you intended?

I meant to write contested, but yes it's also less congested.   The reason I mentioned that the game is less contested is that it probably won't suit us given we play a contested brand of football.  A less contested game may also reduce Gawn's influence which is our strength.

Is it only me that's worried about big M's form / fitness after last week? 

Looked a fair way off his best.

Looking at the numbers as well...only 7 effective disposals, 1 tackle, 3 clearances, 2 contested marks, no marks inside fifty and 0 goals.  On the plus side he did have 8 one percenters and 4 intercepts.

Gawn has performed poorly in round 1 for the last few years now so it’s not too much of a worry seeing as he’s ended up as AA in the same years. FWIW Grundy was even worse than Gawn last week but look how he went last night.

Fair enough nac.  Probably an abberation as you say


Where’s the weekly ‘What they’re saying down at .........’ thread?

Need to kill an hour and have a bit of a laugh before the team comes out.

34 pages of confidence. Knock yourself out.

Wow, that is some supreme confidence they have over there.

I expect them to win but gee, you'd think they'd won the last few premierships the way they talk their own ability up.

There was a similar theme on the Freo board last week, although not quite as supremely confident.  Anyone who plays us thinks they should win.

Am I the only one who thinks Oscar Baker still has something to offer on the wing?

Possibly but he needs consistent form at Casey first


Anyone else hate the AFL's change to releasing teams at 6.25pm the night prior to the match?

I miss the days of Thursday night teams for all.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
