If Weeds gets a game instead of Mitch Brown I'll spew up!

Picket, can one spew down? This has bothered me for some time, also while we're at it why do Americans get off of things? 

In anticipation,

ManDee

    For the regular Casey watchers:

     

    anything they’ve appeared to ask Rivers to focus on in his time at Casey? Is he playing different positions? 
     

    Recognise Jordon’s development on the wing and Gus down back has created one fewer spot in the backline but curious to understand what they are working on development-wise with him

     

    Sounds like both Gawn and Jacko are good to go.

    Must be M Brown and Weid out.

    If Hibbo isn't 100% hopefully Rivers comes back in.


    Out:

    Weid, M. Brown 

    In:

    Gawn, LJ

    Be interesting if they go with the smaller fwd line,  or stick to our usual set up which means Weid stays in

    He's still playing in the backline.  I'd guess at getting back to how he was playing last year - so run and carry, taking the game on etc but also switching and working on his defensive role in the mens' department which has let him down at times this year. The camera work at VFL level is really limited, so it's hard to follow a player closely.

    If we were still as hopeless as we were in 2013, I'd be worried that we'd end up with Mark Jackson and James Brayshaw.

    Goody is now a very polished and confident performer at these media conferences.

    He still rubs his leg intermittently.

    Other than the obvious changes one I would consider is who takes Stengle.   Is it Hibberd, Salem, Gus or bring in Hunt who has an outstanding record on small forwards this year?   

    Goodwin said we will certainly have a player to keep watch on Stengle.

    Same question I posed a few days ago, is it:  Hibberd, Salem, Gus or Hunt? 

    If Hibberd has carryover soreness from last week and only a 5 day break, I would bring in Hunt.

    Hunt has shown us in the past that he is a good lock-down defender when he needs to be. So if Hibbo does get omitted, then its probably the right choice IMO.

     

    "We wouldn't play them if they weren't 100% fit"

    Well that's a lie Goody.....

    Hearing the presser I reckon Weideman stays in the team.

    Could be Bedford and MBrown as the outs.

    Reckon M Brown and Bedford (stiff) will be out

    we’ll go tall down at pussypark

    Yes I think it’s talls out for talls. Seems like some want Weid to stay in.  With BBB and Weid, frees Fritsch up and probably allows him not to have to compete in contested pack marks.  Bedford would be stiff to miss but didn’t quite nail his opportunities last week.

    Except the actual quote is:

    “I wouldn’t be playing them if they weren’t 100 per cent. They’re ready to go,”

    Semantically, a very big difference.

    I stole the quote from Clint Stanaway.

    Either way, I think we all know Goody has told a white lie in the past.

    Christian Petracca playing sick against Fremantle is a prime example. He left it to Christian to make the decision on the day and it back fired. Goody contradicts himself there.

    In saying that, I'm glad both LJ and Gawn are playing this week.

    I think 100% in AFL terms more relates to is there a chance of extra injury.

    All players play sore most of the year and most have injections before each game.

    Disagree. The journo talked about Weid's game last week in gushing terms. Goody just said that they are happy with Weid's development. I guess we'll see who's right.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
