To suggest Howes be promoted & play fwd shows shows the poster clearly doesn't know what he's talking about.

You have the most appropriate pseudonym on DL. 10 out of 10 for self awareness

Casey are still on top of the ladder undefeated while Brisbane are second having just beating Sandy by 25 points so this should be a cracker of a game. Game starts at 11:35am on Saturday at Moret

Nice that the whole squad can travel to Queensland together.

Why would he think his career is done at 25 and with another year on his contract? Last week he was outstanding in tough conditions, clearly the best tall KPP on the ground.  I can’t believe

Even think back to this time 2018.

Thought we had a genuine star on our hands.

I remember when we recruited Bbb and I thought it was going to be tough to pick a fwd line from the plethora of options. Hhmmm.

Now we need a another big and tall forward given Tmac' s injuries and inconsistent form which may be injury related.

Re location this weekend...AFL statement on VFL finals implied home grounds, so Casey fields....but don't take that as gospel.

Came here trying to find out the time of the game - where did they make this statement on VFL finals? Guessing it wasn’t recent?

I can’t believe the footy club hasn’t already given him a solid block of training & games at CHB. 

Bulldogs supporters were saying exactly the same things about Liam Jones and he goes to Carlton and they turn him into an AA CHB.  McCartin looked a million miles off it as a Key Forward at the Saints even when he was actually playing, now he’s in AA discussions as a Key Defender.

Weideman is such a really good person and the Club invested so much with an early Pick, I believe it is crazy not to try everything to give him a chance at success.

 

When we drafted Weed a recruiter at another club mention to me he thought weed would make a fantastic CHB

You appear to have as much trouble with comprehension as you do with anger management Cranky.

The poster wasn't advocating Howes be promoted and wasn't talking up his talents.  He was simply saying that it wouldn't hurt to try young players in different positions at Casey to see how they go.

I don't understand why anybody would have a problem with that suggestion.

Anger management - why I'm the most even tempered poster on Demonland.

On re reading Paulos comment I do concede that I was wrong and he was not suggesting Howes be promoted.

Without being unkind Weideman is probably untradeable. He struggles to get a possession at AFL level. Missed the boat with Collingwood.

But Weideman did want to stay with us. 2 year extension was one too many. Likely he'll remain with the dees next year.

Backup ruckman at this stage

Silly comment of the week award. Another Demonlander creaming his pants over Howes who hasn't actually done anything yet.

I think you just won your own award

    2024 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0
