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

Yes a very interesting prospect. Outstanding athlete but not a natural footballer & lacking football nous.

Needs a year or so at Casey but once he understands the game he could be special.

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.

Afternoon TC. There'll be no perambulations for me today but the scene you've set sounds divine I have to say. I've never really acquired a taste for whisky or any spirits for that matter but I'd like to include a place called Whisky & Alement in Exhibition St on one of my next post game wanders and perhaps The Elysian on Brunswick St for a pre night game warmer.

I'm listening to it on Casey radio Geelong 1 point to us nil.

[Dr.D 1,771]

some players are just better suited to afl than vfl due to increased speed and skills honouring spread.

[WERRIDEE 5,510]

White 1 point scores level.

Very frustrating that there isn’t a live stream provided. We all saw in the Richmond vs Casey game how effective one camera following the play with no commentary can be, and it surely isn’t that difficult to set up and execute it. The firsts aren’t playing today so, all the focus easily should be on Casey (besides teams being announced for tomorrow).  Sometimes I feel Ben Gibson and the melb media team are truly clueless as to what the supporters really want from them. So much vested interested in watching Casey play, that should be a priority whenever possible at home games.

Suggest that Baker or Chandler will be the emergency for tomorrow.

So using that principle the lower the grade you play the better you are.
