Well it gives us more time to get ready for next year.   

The fwd line needs a major shakeup up.  Poor selection this week after last week.  Except for a few, there wasn't the desparation needed to win a final.   Hopefully trac didn't do any more damage.

[John Crow Batty 8,879]

called it pre game. Put Petty forward for the extra tall. Moved down when game nearly lost.

[Seraph 1,824]

Selwyn Griffith should probably start looking for a new job.

Our last quarters this year have been absolutely deplorable.

Teams have known they can run over us, and have done so.

 

Also, why bother switching up positions with 5 minutes to go if you've been stubborn up to that point, even at selection?

[Buzzy 992]

The worse part of this whole business was we ABSOLUTELY SH*T OURSELVES under pressure tonight.

Was going to start naming names of those who had severely embarassing moments - but it was almost the entire team.

That was a disgusting, limp wristed way to exit the year. 

Some seriously hard decisions need to be made about the makeup of this team.  

Good riddance to 2022.

I can't fathom what happened these past few weeks 

[Fork 'em 6,998]

 If they keep kicking to the pockets next year I'll Spew Up!

[dazzledavey36 55,389]

I'm here @Nasher

What have you got me for? 

[Gorgoroth 13,055]

I hear North have a pretty good coach..

[Jibroni 5,018]

We choked

We need Burgo back

We need a CHF

We need to draft well again once Jackson leaves

[dees189227 12,429]

I'm so disappointed in May and lever tonight.

Failure of a season.

Every single loss was the same where we get out to a lead of around 20 to 30 points and then get complacent and stop trying to win.

No imagination with team selection or style.

Half the team in on reputation while Casey had an all-time great saeason.

Yep story of our season 4-5 goal leads evaporate in a blink of an eye and we can't run out the last qtr our make dumb errors when it matters

[McQueen 17,867]

Speechless.

I’ve not seen us looked that gassed before. We had nothing left to give.

You clearly haven't been watching the last 14 games because we've been overrun in most of them. Your BS loading theory is thankfully dead.

That was not lost by game plan or selection or coaching. That was lost through atrocious kicking (again), poor decision making in close (again), and 2 x 50m penalties (again).

What a wasted season.

[Red But Mostly Blue 4,550]

What a waste of a year.

We have the talent but I fear we came into the year with some complacency, and refused to learn anything from our losses.

We lost pretty much every single game the same way, and nobody did anything about it. Same kicks to the pocket, long bombs etc. Predictable and boring.

No dynasty for this team, that's just talk Maxy. You have got to earn that with grit, every single game.

We need some forwards, hunger and try to catch up other teams who will also want to be dynasties.

Ugh. Lame way to end the year.

[Fanatique Demon 2,657]

If Jackson leaves we might be better off.  How can you be a third year AFL player who can’t take a one grab mark? He might as well take Rivers with him. Bowey is far better. 

[Deenooos_ 647]

Last year was our only flag with this group if Goodwin stays as coach. He just isn't up to it. The only way we contend next year is to significantly change our gameplan.

We always needed two tall key defenders. Without the likes of Joel Smith or even Turner, Petty always had to fill that role.

Also, I bet that if it had been Petty instead of Lever in that last bizarre play it wouldn't have cost us a goal. Swings and roundabouts. But can see Ben Brown playing out his contract at Casey.

[Deedeede 3]

Petty our only forward that could take a mark. Poor team selection should of rolled the dice with a tall forward 

[Webber 10,550]

Sadly, our second half of the year has to be seen as a massive capitulation, and that game was the perfect capper. A team we smacked twice this year, badly undermanned, and they made us look like utter amateurs in that second half. Can’t win at our home ground, get easily rolled in our second halves, and when oppositions come hard with the pressure, we go belly up, retreating into our slow methodical attacking strategy with a massive attack of the panics down back. None of the fast, rolling waves of possession, just fumbly, horrible rubbish that gets easily turned over. Dunno how it happened, but it’s absolutely there for all to see. Shattered for the boys, cos I reckon they’ve got no idea how it happened either. Here’s the other thing, and I’ll definitely sound like a smartarse saying it, but HARRY PETTY IS A FORWARD. I’ve been saying it for 4 years. You don’t waste great marking competitive beasts like him down back. Next year, peeps! 

[old dee 23,880]

Well river water it is. Why the hell were we  playing an obviously injured Petracca  and what were we saving Tmac for probably can't even play for Casey now. This is a return to the bad old days God delivers us. I am fairly certain that is my last night game. Too old, it is too cold and can hardly walk back to the station.

Amazing to think 2018 was more successful year then 2022.

[dees189227 12,429]

I do not want to hear Goodwin or the club come out with the Geelong excuse from last year about injuries or illnesses.

They are reasons but not excuses. For 2 weeks we have given up a lead
