Criticism of Harmes' game, after fronting for Casey in abysmal conditions, says a whole lot more about the critic than it does about Harmes!

Howes is clean with his pick ups and moves beautifully. He will be a ripper when he gets strong enough to play AFL. 

Ditto. I think Howes will be a very good addition with another pre season

I think you might find that modern methods of training and preparation of players has advanced in the past decade or so. He will be rested and ready for Friday night’s game if required.

Well if our AFL MC are looking to go with a second tall forward next week, Weid was the one to put his hand up in tough conditions today.

I didn't see today's game, but I don't think Goody will so quickly forgive Weid for his last AFL outing. If he is picked, he must be the forward leading up to the wing, and BBB must stay deeper.


Maybe just bring Weid in for Brown and keep the current set up. Brown isn’t offering much with his one arm in the air mark attempts and running under the ball all the time. At least Weid has more potential atm

His skills just don’t suit our game style. He isn’t a bad footy player, he just isn’t a pack busting, contested marking forward that we need/want him to be. 

He would be serviceable at a number of clubs that have faster ball movement.

What happened to Chandler? Was he late withdrawal? 

Chandler and Bedford missed due to Covid protocols.

Will Joel Smith be ready for AFL footy next week ? Any comments people ?

I thought he was pretty good, had some great pressure acts, 2nd and third efforts

Ah Now Billy let me tell you something, Dazzle Davey is one of the most Astute, if not the most astute poster on Demonland. He knows the game and is always on the money. Show some respect young man!

Won’t play no matter what the conditions were today Mr. Leg. His only chance of a game for the remainder of this year is if we lose both ruckman.

BBB, Joel Smith, Melksham and Kozzi - with a resting ruckman - time for some real synergy with Tracca at the ready shallow forward and midfield.

Gotta wonder how much his knees are affecting his game

Absolutely NO, NO, NO! Weid leaves us short a key player in every contest - and does not make the contest a mobile one. Prefers to be brushed aside for a free kick or peripheral spectator positionl

Dismayed that Casey have continued on with that error-riddled strategy of winning every game in the 2022 VFL season!

Oh, be fair. The poor things cannot help it.

Significantly, in my opinion. Goody has mentioned previously mentioned that he will be under continuous management for the rest of his career.

He was ok. Difficult conditions.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
