Carrying Brown, Baker and others on the list was a waste of list spots. And Munro, White, Dunstan and Grey playing most of the midfield minutes is someone’s decision.

Its hard work watching Melbourne young players stuck in peripheral roles. 

Take those players out of the team, and Casey probably don't win 20 games for the season and a premiership. Surely, team success is invaluable for player development?

    They finally gave Weid a job of holding the number 1 ruck spot and he has developed more in 4 weeks than in the last 4 years.

    Casey have just won a flag and you're  complaining 🤭

    Lots of great young talented kids coming through.

    Good for Casey, but for the sake of Melbourne we can’t carry so many experienced fringe players and VFL players chewing up important minutes.

    Casey’s first priority is to develop afl players and that needs to be reinforced next year.

    Remember when people complained because we didn’t have a winning culture?

    Congratulations Casey, super effort on the 2022 VFL flag, keep building this culture within the club.

    I hope we never see JVR in the VFL again, he’s pure class.

    With Jackson now Gawn, Weideman could have a chance as a permanent second ruck.

    I like this a lot because Weed would kick goals as a resting ruck in the forward line

    I just can't see Weid at AFL level, if Grundy is recruited to the club no chance.

    Take this [censored] somewhere else.

    Had disagreements with you in the past

    dazzel but couldn’t agree more 

    Flags are always very special at any level

    And we would avoid the huge risk that Grundy is.

    I'd rather use all the money to go all in for Harry McKay.

    This is the 700k question

    Pity he hasn't had long in the role.

    Needs to assert himself around the ground

    I think he did amazingly well. Hopefully goody just does this and saves us 400k a year for a decent forward. In 4 months he has effectively taken up full time rucking duties and has done amazingly well

    The players really love Weideman. Maybe they’re just happy for him. 
     

    So nice to see all the senior guys there. I reckon the ones missing are all going to the Brownlow tonight (Trac, Clarry, Gus and May). 
    Gawn doesn’t have to do his hair so he can squeeze in both. 

    May was there at the start I saw him drive into the car park.

    He was good in this role this year, got him involved in the game.

    Not to mention that Mitch Brown provides excellent protection and education for someone like JVR.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
