Cold and blustery morning in Melbourne. Reckon Casey will be particularly windswept today. Tough conditions.

For the EFL /SPL watchers, is  a match at Casey Fields equivalent to Stoke City on a Tuesday night?

North of the border it's probably our equivalent of Gayfield Park, where Arbroath play. The Red Lichties ground is perched right next to the cold North Sea so most games are played in a howling gale. 

[Dr.D 1,771]

I reckon Rosman should be close to an afl call up soon. He's been very good in the vfl and his skillset is what we need in the seniors.

He's got the skillset but I think he's a fair way off a call up. Still very raw.

Agreed. Rosman looks the goods. I'd love to see him at AFL level.

Kayo seems to be doing 3 other games.  I stumbled across this - no idea how kosher it is or where they'd be getting the feed from?

He's rawer than the salmon nigiri I had for dinner last night, would be very surprised if he got a game this year.

Looks sus to me.   Especially since there is no evidence so far that anyone is actually videoing the match.

Have you & Dr D been smoking crack together?

Rosman has been solid at Casey & done a couple of brilliant things but is a mile from a senior call up.

See previously DrD or Sues posts in this thread. On Kayo Looks like it may be but is a bit unproven etc. Follow the advice.

Rab curious about your pre-game perambulations today. Strongly suggest some warming broth followed by an Arbroath Smokie main of course.  After your repast while warming yourself at the open fireplace. Polish off a local favourite ‘Wormy hill’ single malt followed by a ‘Could Reekie Stout’ chaser. Before you hit the Gayfield terraces at Casey Fields.

I am aRosman fan but he is a way off it in terms  of consistent and pressure footy we require. Has ability and VFL is just the place to learn and hone his undoubted skills and endurance running for a senior role at  some stage Later this year or next year.

But very much a player of our future IMO.

Don't know of any video.  But, believe Casey Radio are broadcasting the match...

I'll bow to your superior VFL knowledge, but you'd agree there's something to work with there?

Geez, I haven't had one of those in years but they would go down a treat on a day like today. An uncle of mine built a kipper box that he kept at the end of his garden and they were great with some fried potatoes (tatties). You'd need a degree in microsurgery to pick out all the bones though.
